@@pregnantleggies3696 not really … kids get distracted, run into friends, etc, and you don’t want to sound the alarm every time a teenager takes longer than expected bc 99.9% of the time, it’s nothing … I’ve sent my sons to the store that should take 20 min, but they take an hour or longer sometimes bc they decide to look at the fish, or turtles, or see a friend and start talking, or just walk slow as sh** … a teen taking longer than expected definitely doesn’t automatically mean something is wrong.

Im only one week older than her and to think that I’m now 42, married with a daughter makes me so sad that she missed out on all of that. And she wanted to work with animals or children like I did as well. There’s nothing more tragic than an unfinished life. She would have had a good one.

17:00 My nan (her daughter was close with the victim) said that Edwin worked at ASDA at the time. 20:20 Nan also said that they did know eachother prior to the attack. All the kids in the area thought that he was weird, but Naomi fancied him (and he knew that) and would often go to ASDA just to see him. From what nan said, they seemed to get on well prior to this, and we think that he took advantage of her trust that night. Obviously this is just speculation based on what my family and their friends knew about him, but it might help with giving an idea of what might have happened that night.

Sucks that she doesn’t do it with compassion. She gets details wrong about these cases, it gets confirmed by family members and she ignores it. Kendal Rae is the only one who covers with complete empathy. She doesn’t add random details to fill the video.

[@madebynicolezan]

@@izizxoxo I think she does a pretty good job. It would be hard to cover all the details and it would be hard also to pick all the correct information. No matter what you listen to or what report you read. You need to be mindful that not everything is a true account of the events. Even witness statements, etc...are never 100 percent. I also think the compassion is there, she dose such a sweet job at giving you an idea of the individual person.

[@izizxoxo]

@@madebynicolezan ok but I don’t think the genuine empathy is there with Eleanor. On one of her recent cases, a family member of the victim was commenting on the video saying how many details she got wrong, and how she didn’t like the inaccuracy, Elenor decided to ignore it. And her fans weren’t very nice to the family member either

[@madebynicolezan]

@@izizxoxo that is sad to hear. Which case is it?

[@williepearl278]

Back in the mid 90s my parents would let me walk to town all the time. They would both be at work and I was pretty much allowed to go wherever I wanted just as long as I called before I left and when I came home. I feel like a lot of us were able to just run around wherever and we are all extremely lucky that we didn’t become someone’s victim.

[@SjofnBM1989]

especially at 15. We were on our own.

[@supernova11711]

My mother and father were separated but we had very little supervision. We went home for supper and had to be home a certain time for bed but otherwise my mother had no idea where we were or what we were doing. My dad was depressed and slept most of the day so we had even less rules or supervision while with him. I always say that the fact that my brother and I even made it to adulthood is a miracle. Even crossing kid napping out of it, we were reckless and often did dangerous things. Now a days my parents would be considered abusive. Can’t say I can disagree with that term either.

[@ellabella4126]

I’m 20 so even in the early 2000 I could do the same was never indoors only for a bit of Scran other than that I was out until the street lights came on I don’t want kids in the future because it’s a scary world now !!!! I feel so much for the parents it’s heartbreaking

[@williepearl278]

When I started high school my mom had just started dating someone so after work she would be with him until almost 9 or 10. Then she would go away for the whole weekend. I was probably home alone 85% of the time. She should consider herself lucky that I’m an introvert because I could of had some major parties.

[@bludgeysheepton]

Growing up like that, from very young like 3-4 years old, and now having a child of my own- I just can’t even fathom letting her play anywhere but inside or supervised in our backyard???? It makes me anxious when she visits friends and family that we know extremely well. I don’t know how parents did it. I just always want to know what she’s up to, that she’s okay and having fun. It’s crazy to think how vulnerable I was, my parents often didn’t meet or talk to my friends’ parents. In summer I would often spend a week at one friends house or more… LIKE HOW?

[@theonIyphan]

[@meganwoehl5277]

I know this case was from 1995, but when is the world going to start protecting their girls and treating these incidents with the seriousness they deserve? An open prison for someone who brutally murdered, sexually assaulted, and mutilated a child, with a previous attack and attempted rape....really? Open prison is the best we can do? We have to do better. I think he finally died (as I can't find him listed anymore) but a few years ago I checked the sex offender registry in my town and just a few blocks from me was a "high risk" sex offender. I looked at his rap sheet and he had two separate charges, from two separate dates/events, where he ABDUCTED A CHILD from the sidewalk, drove away with them, sexually assaulted them, and then abandoned them on the side of the road. TWICE HE DID THIS!!! He had a few other charges like exposing himself in public as well. But they just let him out to live the rest of his life...Where's the justice? The town is quite small and he was no more than 5 streets away from an elementary school. If you have to label someone as "high risk" they do not deserve to be let out. I don't care if they take their last breath behind prison bars. Sexual predators do not belong in our society any more than murderers do. Just disgusting.

[@azoreysaint9636]

I agree and thanks for sharing those details about his other charges. I realize the justice system is really in place fir the criminals.

[@nataliawashington872]

I just checked the sex offender registry for Mobile Al after seeing your comment and got curious cause I’ve never looked that up and I want to know if I’m living near any So I put my zip code in and find out 620!!!!!!!! Sex offenders!!!!! ARE LIVING NEAR ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I DID NOT EXPECT THAT HIGH OF A NUMBER!!!!!!!!!!! Ranging from 0.3 miles away from me and that was just the first section-there is 61 sections left!!!!! If I had the money I would’ve done it but at the moment I don’t. I live in an apartment and for the closest sex offender to be 0.3 miles away from me is scary…what if they somehow found a way to work their way into living into my apartment building because it used to be so secure and nowadays it seems anyone can get into my apartments..so that’s scary to think about

[@BeeKee404]

Any case involving a child being raped and murdered is obviously horrifying and heartbreaking but there's something especially more heartbreaking when the victim is the youngest child. I can't imagine what not only the parents but also Naomi's older brothers went through. I really hope her mother doesn't blame herself for sending her to the post. I mean on one hand, maybe she should've gone with her or someone go with her since it was late evening but all in all, it wasn't her fault since she couldn't have known. It really angers me when the murderers say "no comment" as if that's going to help their case. They just do it to waste people's time and rub salt on the wound of the victim's family. You have to be seriously deranged and fucked up to not only rape and murder someone but also refuse to give the victim's family any kind of closure. And now to make it worse, he's now basically free. Seriously, who can we trust if not the justice system?

[@Fluffy-Fluffy]

Also, if you have your dna all over her, why murder her. (I don't mean if you leave no dna go ahead and murder, that's not my intention at all). You are scared she will rat you out? Or was it just for kicks because you needed to feel what it was like to kill someone? That's the only thing that would make murdering her "logical". (For lack of a better word!) Murdering her to silence her while you left your dna everywhere means she is still screaming loudly and pointing towards you. He could have let her go, which was horrible anyway either way too but if you know you left your DNA all over, then wouldn't you know they will find you soon enough if you've done shit before and you become a suspect? He may as well have let her live if it was for silencing. But I'm afraid it was about more than that with the mutilations on her too, he was just slice-happy and probably simply out to kill someone no matter who and silencing them was not even a thing he thought about, just a big rush of dopamine for him that he finally did it. And him being kind of out now, I'm afraid we are waiting for a new murder :(

[@shaz8486]

I agree…he shouldn’t be free….no doubt with his knife and sexual fetish he will re offend, some people can never be reformed…it’s been in his blood since he could walk …thanks to his dad’s training. I don’t think ANY child should be introduced to hunting in any form it’s screws with their brains. It’s s😊ick anyway …IMO ….killing innocent animals for the fun of it.

[@sandydog426]

It's especially frustrating when they continue to deny their crime. Like, it's a special kind of evil and cowardice to deny a murdered kid's parents true closure. I can't imagine how her parents feel, knowing he's in an "open prison" now. Their baby is dead and the guy who did it--and who had tried to commit a similar crime before--gets to basically be a free man after 20 years. There are people serving longer or similar sentences for drug possession without intent to sell.

[@patriciaobrien5977]

The sad thing about cases like these is that when you find a body and a killer, they’re solved. There is no room for the hope that your loved one is out there, in perfect health, or that they’ll come back one day. It’s just horrible.

[@emmanarotzky6565]

He knew to change his clothes, but he didn’t know that he’d get caught by biting the person he was killing? Especially since he must have known he had unique teeth…

[@honigfuchs111]

I will never understand how a murderer can be released from prison. They took someone's life and are given the opportunity to live theirs freely after a few years in prison? Hell no.

Naomi was my childhood friend. She was the year above me at school. There would be a little group of us that would meet up most days after school and at weekends in that very park. Naomi and I would often try on each others shoes. The evening before she died, she had asked if she could borrow a pair of my black ankle boots. These were the boots she was wearing on that very fateful night. She was a beautiful soul inside and out. Sleep well beautiful ❤️

[@kelseybarton]

oh my god 😭

[@amandah5478]

I didn't know this. Thank you for sharing.

[@heather_doestruecrime]

Why are you titling your videos like you are now? This is not the genre for eye catching exaggerated titles. Honestly super disappointed :(

[@Nizhonibearcreek]

This situation is the reason my mom wouldn’t let us outside at night after the street lights came on , and if we weren’t it would only be a matter of seconds before we would hear her finger to lips high pitched whistle and all of our full names being screamed into the street , we all came running even neighbor hood kids came out of fear of her wrath . Had a friends mom thank my mom every night cause all of the kids would just go home too with no fight or complaining.

I hope everyone has a spooky season, stay safe out there! ♡ much love!

[@wongo79]

I grew close to this , I remember this. And we have always believed that he would of been a serial killer

[@pauocampo4666]

‘ Why are they letting a fucking murderer walk out freely in the society? Convicted murderers should never see the light of day, EVER! That’s so fucked up honestly

[@miraahbhat1274]

I love you so much! Your stories are always so detailed and I can't help running over to you , leaving my assignment behind. Thank you!

[@stella444]

This is so disappointing to hear, it's almost like they took absolutely no consideration of the nature of the crime. How is he able to walk free during the day?? Are they not worried about this happening again?

[@Dolliexvu]

This is truly heartbreaking, I’m so glad you covered this case.

[@jess-fl2jq]

I’m literally from Warwickshire and I’ve never heard this case! Unreal what she suffered poor girl my heart goes to the family ❤

[@jadehernandez9095]

I just started watching your channel and I don't regret it, mostly I feel bad about the victims and learning about crimes I don't know about, but you also give these people who are murdered their story

[@hightimecrime]

Such a tragic case... Whenever children are involved it's just... How could someone?

[@wiggl3s_821]

I honestly cannot imagine the guilt her mother carries around with her and that is just so tragic because it isn’t her fault. She asked her teenage daughter to run a quick errand, weve all been asked similar things by our parents so this is just heartbreaking.

[@i.hateyou.]

she has the same birthday as me. This case is so sad, I don’t know how someone can hurt let alone kill an innocent little girl who had her whole life ahead of her. Genuinely heartbreaking.

[@kathrynbillinghurst188]

✨👼🏼✨R.I.P.✨🕊 🌷✨NAOMI 🌸✨ So sad to imagine how much has been stolen from Naomi with so life ahead of her AND potential! Elanour… thank you for sharing this story with us! I was weeping until you said… ‘ain’t no one got gnashes like that!’ I hope there’s justice for Naomi and her family one day 🙏

[@Forevermorexx]

Thank you so much for covering this case we suggested for you at at the KZbin event at the excel, it was so lovely to meet you. There has been so little shared about this horrible case & from our home town too so hit hard xx

[@cici.ngxenge]

The horror of sending a child only a few houses away and they just get killed, I can't even fathom the horror her parents felt. This world is way too vile

[@emilyhessey4970]

I can’t imagine how horrible that would’ve been for the parents and Emma

[@tellmeofyourhomeworldusul6060]

At 19 if he can do this, he most definitely is a danger. So anyone that is in his area should Definitely be aware that he is around. He will do it again.

[@heathermoore9162]

She would have been about the same age as me now , 42 years old. So sad , loss of such a young life.

[@Hadleyrille_]

Eleanor, I love all you do. I’ve been a fan since 2019, and I watch your videos whenever I see that notification that you’ve uploaded. Much love from hadley in Tennessee! Ps: If there are any good cases that have to do with Knoxville, tennessee, I would love if you could cover one of those! Xoxox❤

[@hotwheelzhadz]

Hadley is the best name!!!!! Wooo

[@theworld340]

He's gonna do it again the next chance he gets ppl like him take no accountability and don't care the fact her dad found her is especially heart breaking n then lost his wife to cancer 💔 rip x

[@eveg.j.9197]

and to think that if he had been charged for his earlier attack, he likely wouldn't have been able to kill this girl. it all boils down to police negligence.

[@jaminthesmall303]

your story telling skills are so good it makes me wanna listen instead of boring me with a bland voice telling me out of order facts the way you talk about this case makes sense and is really easy to follow along with🙂

[@xxhaiydvexx5951]

I don’t know where this story will take me but I don’t know Elinore’s voice is so nice it just sweeps me up and carry’s me into whatever story she’s reciting to me it’s truly amazing

[@adamg1234]

I love how in depth you go with the victims of this case and show them such respect

[@vanessarenee3304]

I love your channel and how informative you are! I am a psychology major and I have taken forensic psychology and when they tested the validity of bite-mark analysis it turns out it’s the least reliable analysis and is only accurate about 2% of the time because, the skin stretches and can make someone’s bite look very different from their actual bite mark. It’s odd but many have been wrongfully convicted because of unreliable bite-mark analysis): just thought I’d share!

[@dreamsgonebye6151]

I was attacked at 19, a man jumped me from behind. I was just leaving home. It was 5.35pm. I was lucky because I was a tomboy and was streetwise. I kicked him in the face and fought like a lioness. He ran away into the dark November evening. Unfortunately 2 days later he attacked a 11yr old girl. They caught him, let's just say that he didn't have a good time in prison!

[@sarahesmitty]

could you maybe post a tutorial of how you do your research for these videos, perhaps on your second channel?? id love to see what resources you use and how you go about beginning research for these cases

[@Narutosasshole]

Can you please cover the case of Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom, it happened in my city, Knoxville Tennessee(US) in 2007 and what happened to them was just so horrific and more people need to hear their story.

[@lyndawylie5768]

What was awful as well was that the families had to sit thru the trials TWICE because of Judge Baumgardner!! I’m from Sevier county. I’ve requested this case from a few of my favorite KZbinrs. There has been one I saw that had covered it but it wasn’t someone I was super familiar with. Have you seen it? I’ll find the link

[@luciawarren9505]

Literal favourite youtuber, I get so giddy when you upload. I love how you spread awareness through your videos and the Uk murders are terrifying since they're so close to home

[@sprockettmoon9219]

Say her name in the thumbnail instead of implying this murder victim is clickbait. Kinda sick of true crime channels profiting off of peoples deaths. Even if you put a dumb disclaimer in front of it. It’s like saying, “no offense… BUT” idk you just seem to sensationalize murder

[@sprockettmoon9219]

I used to watch true crime (the tasteful ones that describes the victims life more than the murderers) due to my own experience with potentially fatal encounters, and when I made my negative comment, it didn’t occur to me that you could be creating these for the same reason. I’ll be honest, I clicked on the video after I said this, and you do talk a great deal about the victim. I apologize. Not all true crime coverage is bad

[@clareobrien3265]

I can’t believe I’ve never heard of this sickening case until now. I’m knocked sick. Poor little girl and her poor parents. RIP Naomi.

[@tiffieee]

Cases like these really make you realise why your parents were so protective over you growing up. My love goes out to her parents ❤

[@oliviagrace6914]

I love your content. It always helps even during rough times so thank you and I know it hasn’t been easy for you as covering these cases can be rough. thank you for the work you’ve put into making others feel loved and those affected respected. praying for all affected

[@jennip605]

The question I have asked myself since I was a child....WHY? Why do people need to hurt other people? This poor girl, Naomi, and Bless her loved ones. Eleanor, I believe he had a change of clothes and knife in his backpack for quite a while, just waiting for the opportunity to jump. So scary

[@liyah2706]

I know her mother probably blames herself for her daughters death.😕

[@Wickedwitch666]

You may want to look into the Monster of Florence serial killer... Would L O V E to hear your take on it 🤎

[@zaileeoriginal]

Please dear Eleanor's editor calm down with the thumbnails, I know a murder, unfortunately, happened thus there is no need for there to be blood spatters behind the victim's head

[@willow8485]

'aint no one else got gnashers like him'... I

[@grovergaming3715]

I was just thinking about you and your videos and then this pops up! Thank you Eleanor for everything you do! Make sure to take care of yourself! ❤️💗

[@aimanyousaf94]

This was one of the first cases I did detail research on and I was heartbroken I remember not sleeping for 3 to 4 days it hit me hard I am glad you covered it

[@Aurorasxo]

this case always breaks my heart, couldn't even imagine how guilty her mum felt and how broken her dad was finding her the way he did. such a beautiful girl taken way too soon.
