At the time of the trial her name really was dragged through the mud. But refreshingly, the public were not buying it. Everyone just saw his as a creep that was saying vile things about the amazing young woman he murdered. It was upsetting for his family though, and after the trial her mum spoke out about how much of what he said was simply not true and Sophie was indeed a much better person and a higher achiever than he could ever hope to be. But we all knew that already.

Sadly this is something that gets brought up endlessly in both murder cases and rape cases. The defense has nothing so they make the victim out of the abuser/killer by highlighting the supposed sexual immorality of the victim. After all. if she's a slut she's asking for trouble and a guy can't be blamed for thinking no means yes, or for snapping when she wounded his ego by sleeping with other men. It's incredibly backwards thinking and has no place in society in 2022.

He didn't deserve her. It hurts me to see that such a beautiful, bubbly, gorgeous and charismatic girl's life was taken away. He is a loser. He should have been proud and grateful to have such a beautiful , gorgeous and understanding partner like her. God create women to be loved, adored, and taken care of like a delicate flower. I know that relationship always goes both ways, both partners needs be loyal, faithful, understand each other. But just by looking at this case ,the way he discouraged her after she got her first job in treasury, he was totally a loser. Instead of encouraging her to have a successful career, he gets jealous and threatened her. Such a coward, stupid, loser guy..... And she glows like a flower. Her smile can light up everything around her and makes everyone happy around her.

About as much as anyones sexual history has to do with anything. I think the lawyer may have been implying that she slept around to taunt him. But it doesn't work if the sleeping around happens when your split up. I had an ex that broke up with me, and got pissed off that I hooked up with another woman, after the break up. She thought that breaking it off with me was a punishment and that I would beg to have her back. Instead I thought bullet fucking dodged. This is a sad one though, cause she was in the clear gone, new life then er mom not knowing better brought the monster back in and she died one of the most horrifying deaths someone can die.

If you find yourself in a toxic relationship, find the strength to leave. Having been through a couple the past few years myself, it’s best to just walk away. One was straight up toxic and we brought out the worst in each other arguing all the time, the other strung me along for months until she cheated on me and broke it off trying to pretend she did nothing wrong and trying to stay friends with me until I discovered the truth and cut her out for good. Luckily it didn’t get worse, it fucking hurts but at least it’s over and done with. Staying with someone not good for you is so damaging and hurtful emotionally and mentally. When you see red flags, run and don’t look back.

The biggest lesson from this case was to illustrate how dangerous it was when she DID leave. He used a defense in court called "provocation" which was supposed to reduce his culpability for murder. Essentially, his argument was that she knew he was a narcissist and had provoked him by ending the relationship. Normally that defense would be used by someone who has beaten someone to death they caught fiddling their child, for example. It was an absolutely disgusting use of that defense, and that particular defense was removed from the Crimes Act afterwards, if I remember rightly.

I am not sure such talks by Sophie's mother would do any good in preventing a similar repetition in the future. I have always believed that there is something very egotistical, violent, and wrong with the psyche of many Anglo-Celtic men which makes them unable to accept the reality that their wives, girlfriends, lovers, tinder dates, no longer want to continue the relationship with them. They turn very nasty and irrationally violent when the woman wants to end the relationship.

He should have been proud and grateful to have such a beautiful , gorgeous and understanding partner like her. God create women to be loved, adored, and taken care of like a delicate flower. I know that relationship always goes both ways, both partners needs be loyal, faithful, understand each other. But just by looking at this case ,the way he discouraged her after she got her first job in treasury, he was totally a loser. Instead of encouraging her to have a successful career, he gets jealous and threatened her. Such a coward, stupid, loser guy..... And she glows like a flower. Her smile can light up everything around her and makes everyone happy around her.

I thought the same thing! However, there’s a lot of ppl out there who would sympathize with him for being cheated on so many times. And anything else they can say to make her look bad makes it seem like he’s a victim as well. They’re basically trying to paint the picture that she drove him to snap and lose it one day. While that’s obv not an excuse for murder, it makes a lot of ppl more understanding esp if they’ve been cheated on or abused and wanted revenge. But ya, it’s a common theme that defense attorneys do, cuz ppl tend to SLIGHTLY sympathize with a killer if the person they killed was their abuser. It’s sad tho cuz the victim isn’t there to defend themselves 😢

This man made me go into not one, but two mental breakdowns. Like a lot of narcs, he wouldn't take responsibility, and made lies about me, how I was obsessive, wanted to cause drama, ect.

Hi from New Zealand! Just to add, Sophie’s mum died a few weeks ago from Parkinson’s and the charity she set up was shut down in 2019 as her disease made it too difficult for her to continue with. Clayton is due for parole in just 5 years and unfortunately in NZ most murderers normally do get patrolled quite easily due to the restorative justice system we have as opposed to punitive.

Women get with men that abuse them, ignore the good guys and then blame all men for their poor choices. They cheat, they lie, they hate and then blame men when there is backlash. This man was a piece of crap, I'm not defending this trash that should have gotten the death penalty but to equate him to other men is an evil and stupid thing to do. Your prejudice and sexism doesn't help the world, it only creates more people just like him. Anyone, man or woman should live a life of dignity and respect for others regardless of their gender, skin color or religion. We should strive for peace with each other and treat everyone with love. We should live a life of morals and not lie and cheat. If the man were the one killed and he had cheated and this was the same defense I bet you wouldn't say a word about it. You don't care if the same thing happens to a man do you? Because these kinds of defenses are used against men as well to portray them as the problem when they were the victim as well. I've seen a lot of cases and the same thing happens to both genders. Only a sexist makes it about the sex of the person. You need to look at yourself and evaluate why you hate good men for what bad men have done and if you want men to blame you for what bad women have done.

Thank you for covering Sophie's case. This happened just after I had moved to Ravensbourne just up the road from where I lived at the time. It was absolutely heartbreaking to hear the news of something so horrific happening so close to home. Sophie was the same age as me and people I know were her friends even though I never met her myself. I am now a mature student and frequently visit her tree which was planted in her memory at the beautiful university of Otago campus. She was a beautiful, driven and extremely intelligent young woman who had many good things in store for her future. And the way the perpetrator acted in court was a disgusting abomination. One of her brothers said he cannot remember or think of his little sister without remembering how she died 😢 a couple of weeks ago her mother Lesley died and all I could think was thank goodness she is finally at rest after what she went through.

There are laws written on our hearts. Do not lie. Do not cheat. Do not sleep around. Do not steal. Do not murder etc one doesn’t have to believe the holy Bible to understand that if you break on like simply to lie. You are equal to the law breaker who murders. So she is also in need of forgiveness and salvation as this “evil” monster. It sickens me that this happened don’t get me wrong.

Your comment about his eyes made me lol. He said that her eyes were too close together. Then we take a look at his eyes that are definitely too close together. It parallels an abusive ex. It got to the point that EVERY criticism he pointed towards me was his flaw. Point a finger and you've got three pointing back to you. I love Coffeehouse. You do a great job. Thanks

@@liliesrnice It's not victim blaming though...the blame still lies with the murderer. But we are allowed to question why the mother would let an abusive man into her home only a month after being violent with her daughter. I feel compassion for her but I still think she shouldn't have let him in the house. It's not wrong to question why someone does something. They didn't say that it was the mom's fault that the daughter was killed. Obviously the mother didn't know he was going to kill her but she knew what he was capable of.

I have noticed quite a few 'To those Americans out there' type of phrases anytime you mention geography. Oh, I applaud your educating Americans personally. So sweet of you. It doesn't come across as a condescending statement at all. 👀😊

As far as I know, and I'm in Portugal, there's only one person ever convicted of life with no parole in NZ and even that one is living in a state farm, roaming around 'free' taking care of animals and farm life. I don't care what people say, but there is a connection between harsher sentences and less violent crimes. This 'person' should never, ever get out of prison and he will.
