Exactly! it's already extremely selfish enough to chose to become pregnant knowing full well that you can't take care of it nonetheless yourself and your existing child but to then prioritise an unborn child that doesn't know it exists and some man over your own existing child is very selfish and the mother is an awful human.

@@martinkingdon6699 back when AIDS first started it was almost exclusively found in the gay community and the vast majority of people had no idea how it was transmitted- they believed that just being near someone infected with HIV or who had AIDS could make them sick. It took high profile people like Princess Diana and Elizabeth Taylor demonstrating by example that you can touch, kiss, hug people with HIV/AIDS and not be infected. Adults screamed at little children who tried to attend elementary school because they thought they were going to give their child AIDS by just being in class with them. Absolutely heartbreaking to not only suffer from the horrible effects of the disease itself but to then also have people treat you like a biohazard bin - even in hospitals there were medical professionals at first who wouldn’t touch or get close to the AIDS patients. And before they developed the antiretroviral therapy they have today the disease was even more of a nightmare for sufferers, so they were truly facing hell on earth all alone, completely cut off from close human contact and touch until their death and even beyond in the treatment of their corpses. Thank God we have educated the general public on how diseases are transmitted and how they aren’t.

No matter what Collin had to say, I expect he was a homosexual, maybe repressed. He managed to pass as gay, pick up a gay man, and "fake it" far enough to get a man in the bedroom. My gay friends used to joke about having gaydar (gay radar) claiming they could pick out a gay person in any room of strangers. And there's the psychological fact that we mostly hate in others, what we most hate or fear in ourselves. And then the way he strangled or suffocated them, killed them up close and personal, instead of shooting or something else that would put him more at a distance. Not many straight guys would be comfortable or into handling a Male, naked body, to pose or the body or whatever. He was a sexual sadist that had a preference for men. Just my opinion.

Perhaps but anybody can be gay. In my year there were quite a few bisexual girls but they all looked straight so you wouldn't have known. I'm sure the same can be said for many gay men. You don't need to look gay to be gay. And there are also probably quite a few lesbians who look really straight too. I have a lesbian friend who finds it hard to get attention from females because they automatically assume she's straight & it's frustrating.

As a foster in animal rescue, I find it extremely upsetting when people dump their senior dog at the shelter because they got a new puppy. It happens more than you might realize. It is so sad for those dogs. I can only imagine how a child would feel. Psychologically and emotionally, it probably was not the best for (young) Colin. Even if he did receive regular meals, I bet he would have taken the love of his parents over that if given a choice.

There some be some organization or something to raise awareness about how many senior animals are left lonely, even though they’re generally well behaved, trained a bit, socialized, etc. also not as energetic generally so better for smaller homes, homes with kids, etc. maybe if more people realized how many senior animals there are in shelters, more people would want to foster and adopt them.

Okay gonna call out the mother AS a child who lived place to place and was bullied. Putting the child who ALREADY has attachments to you into foster care is messed up on so many levels. Eleanor might not put blame on her, but I do. They should have put the baby who doesn't even know it's a person the moment its born into either foster care or adoption. She had an obligation to her son she spent all her life with. Just because some man who is "Mr.Right" comes into her life and they NOW have a biological child together doesnt mean you can throw away the half blood like he's nothing. I know he turned into a murderer, but maybe if someone saved the child he was he wouldn't be the monster he turned into... Edit: I'm not saying the mom was the sole factor to what he became. But in saying some normalcy might have helped a little...

I always feel angry/disgusted about physical punishments in schools (or at home but that's another story). I remember my step-dad mentioning a teacher literally breaking a paddle while beating him with it. I almost got sent to the office for physical punishment once in elementary school but luckily the teacher gave me the choice of either that or sitting at the "island" (a desk separate from the rest of the class)
I work with children, and as much as they sometimes anger me or push me to my limits, I can't imagine ever hurting them. It truly horrifies me when people put hands on their children as "discipline" (they truly just haven't learned how to control their anger). I was heavily emotionally abused as a child, and often hit, by my mother. It leaves a scar that never goes away.

So hard. Has really affected my adult life. I have a best friend and her family as the closest to family I have. Relationships… I’m difficult. I’m standoffish and push people away. I don’t want to.

The other term is livor mortis, which is the discoloration over time of the body, which starts out in small patches within half an hour to 2 hours post-mortem.

Yeeeees!!!! Exactly 💯. I am in no way blaming her for him growing up to murder but I do blame her for his emotional disconnect. First the mother moved him around and around so he was never able to make friends and if he did in the short time he was in a school, he would have to move again and lose that connection so he stopped trying and then he was eventually abandoned by his mom and so I greatly blame her for his emotional disconnect from anyone and why he was so weird and no one really liked him. He never learned how to make friends and he never learned how to act in any kind of social environment. I absolutely 💯% blame the mom for all of that. However, Colin still knew right from wrong and he knew killing was wrong. I do not blame the mother for those actions.

Not to mention that would still mean that someone caused the death of these men and then fled the scene... How is that possibly not a murder and a cause for an investigation? "I guess he was engaging in BDSM and was killed as a result and the perpetrator panicked and left him tied up humiliated and ran off! Totally understandable accident!" What.....

I’m so exhausted and have to work at 11 tonight I still got that “second wind” that tends to happen to all of us when we were literally just dozing off on the way home. I wasn’t sure how I was going to relax then an Eleanor notification popped up and now I know. Thank you for being you, Eleanor. You’re a wonderful person and I see so much success in your future. Edit to add: It’s RSV season and all the parents of little ones need to be very careful with your babes. Do not let anyone besides you and immediate family kiss your baby no matter what unless they’ve recently been vaccinated for RSV. Not even on the forehead. Anyone over 60 is very prone to catching this and sometimes don’t show symptoms. Even if Aunt Edna who’s 95 and had driven 8 hours to come see your new baby do not allow kissing. Even Grandparents and any other relatives. More babies die every year than the amount of babies that die from Covid every year. If they get mad then too bad, they’ll get over it. If they can’t respect your boundaries then they can leave. Their feelings do not mean more than your children’s lives!!

About his Birth Certificate: if a couple is married the father's name is put on the certificate automatically. However a single mother can only put the father's name on the certificate with his consent. Similarly the father cannot add himself to his child's birth certificate without the consent of the child's mother. It makes a lot of sense. To be of use, birth certificates should be truthful. Allowing mothers to single handedly name the father without consent? So I could name some famous bloke. Or a stalker could claim to be my child's dad. If Colin Ireland's father wasn't recorded on his birth certificate it's just as likely that it was a result of his father having deserted the little family as it is down to his mother leaving it off, IYKWIM.

my grandad was a detective in romford during this case. for those that don’t know, romford is in essex like southend. he was often asked to go to different towns in the county and in london to help with different things. i grew up with so many stories from him. he worked the peter sutcliffe case and was at the arrest, he investigated the kray cases etc. he once told me how he was asked to go to london to fill in for an officer who wasn’t able to make it into work that day. he had to decline, because my mum (a toddler/young child) was really ill and nobody else could care for her as my grandma was extremely busy at work (she was a legal secretary). he said he was ‘bloody well glad’ he didn’t go, because that force had found andrew collier and his cat that day. he passed a couple years ago, and i was always too young to REALLY ask him his stories. now that i’m an adult, i’m not able to. but it’s so fascinating being related to a man who had a part in a load of cases and to hear one of them from eleanor
