[@rashone2879]

Well we have no records from the “beginning of time” and if early humans had been so “sick in the head” humanity would not have advanced. Murder is not the result of a “sickness” in the head and certainly not representative of all people.

[@Cricket9579]

​​​​​​@@rashone2879 I think you're being FAR too literal, and in fact, murderers have been around for thousands of years, recorded or not. Do some research. People murder for many reasons, and there absolutely were, and still are people sick enough in the head to kill for no apparent reason except for the thrill it. They're called psychopaths. Research that too. Pretty sure they weren't speaking for everyone in their comment, so humanity would have advanced regardless. "Since the beginning of time" is literally a figure of speech. Cope.

[@BriefCaseOfficial]

Thanks for listening

[@littlereddstar5264]

Poor Georgina. Why take something out on a child who has nothing to do with their father’s poor behavior?

[@MisplacedTexan]

That’s a crazy assertion. A mistress - whether back then or today - is a grown woman who knows she’s having sex with a married man. Anyone dumb enough to have sex with a married person is responsible for their own heartache, and to take it out on the child is evil. Mr. Moore is responsible for cheating on his wife, but Ms. Pay is the ONLY ONE responsible for the murder. She’s disgusting. Clearly zero morals. Blaming the father for this murder is one of the weirdest things I’ve seen on KZbin in a long time…

[@mjrchapin]

Funny how things haven't changed much; even now, when a young female goes missing, it's assumed at first she's off with friends or a sweetheart. Delayed search = bad outcome.

[@boosqueezy2418]

they tell parents their child is a runaway who will “come home when she gets hungry.”

[@NelsonStJames]

That's generally the first thing that is assumed when 'any' child goes missing. And majority of the time it is true; however though that was the officers initial reaction, they did begin a search for the child; there did not appear to be any delayed search in this case. Though it's nobody's fault, the child wasn't reported missing for a whole day until the tea time because it was assumed she was at school.

[@SweetChicagoGator]

@@NelsonStJames Do you have child abductions and murders in your country?

[@marygriffin1604]

In this story despite their doubts police were sent to check hospitals, workhouses, and other places she may have been if she was injured. Too often you are correct, but not in this case.

Poor Georgina and her family. 💔

[@luciebrisson5881]

Poor Georgina, she seemed such a sweet, lovely child. So sad there was no justice for her and no closure or relief for her grief-stricken parents. Thank you Brief Case for the story. Your description of London in the beginning made me want to go back for another visit. It's a beautiful city which I was lucky enough to visit nearly a quarter of a century ago and I loved it.

[@StamfordBridge]

Mrs. Pay’s angry outburst, blaming the father, feels like the misdirection of her anger toward the father that may have led her to kill the child in the first place, with her barely able to disguise her fury. Is this 100% proof of guilt? Of course not. But on a psychological level it strikes me as suspicious. If I were wrongly accused of a child’s death, would I cry out in rage in court against one of the parents?

[@Ruth78620]

Maybe he used the poor child as the reason he couldn't leave his wife so she took her rage put on the little girl in the hopes the father would come to her. Just a thought.

[@StamfordBridge]

@@Ruth78620 Indeed. And/or maybe it was her child and the father not allowing her to publicly claim her child drove her mad with fury.

[@lmm8960]

She openly made the claim that there were other women who could have been involved. Yet nobody demanded she give her reasoning for such a claim. Now a days a person would be interrogated further about a claim like that.

[@coxmosia1]

I believe that woman had something to do with the child's murder, but the with whom and why is impossible to find out. Thanks BC for another fascinating, but sad case of crime.

[@jodygrulich8695]

Jealousy? Spite? General psycho......the firmer landlord lady.

[@rachelann9362]

The way she inserted herself, wanting to know how things were going. It’s like she was keeping tabs on if they were close to finding anything out, and was getting some sense of thrill off of it. The mom got a bad vibe. I would trust that. It’s not uncommon for the people that insert themselves too intensely in a missing case actually have something to do with what happened.

[@LizzieBee00]

She was totally guilty. I honestly don’t know why she was found not guilty. Her motive was anger and jealousy. She was having an affair with the man and more than likely he told her that he couldn’t leave his wife because of their child. How sad for this little girl to have been murdered for such stupid reasons.

[@Cricket9579]

Such a tragic story, I truly feel Mrs Pay was solely responsible. Something just was very off about her! I feel she got away with murder. Another fantastic case Mr BC, I'm NEVER dissapointed!! Pure Gold. ❤❤❤

[@londonsage8696]

Good morning, It’s always heartbreaking when it comes to a child being killed, and even worse when the case isn’t solved. I hate to say that just because she might have had an affair with Mr. Moore, it doesn’t make her a killer. No one could really identify her. Also, just because the police found blood on something in Mrs. Payne‘s room doesn’t mean that it belonged to Georgina. I wish they would have paid a little bit more attention to the soldier who claims that he helped Mrs. Payne kill Georgina, but I guess we’ll never know. Thank you so much for another very intriguing story. Have a wonderful week and if you’re a father, I hope you had a Happy Father’s Day. Bless

[@BriefCaseOfficial]

Thanks :)

[@hogwashmcturnip8930]

I would have also liked to see them ask her to produce the shawl. It wouldn´t have really proved anything of course, if they were so common, A family member could have easily acquired one, The evidence is all circumstantial., but at the same time it is also Very coincidental. The body turns up in her hometown, the timings, the sightings.. This is one of those where if I had been on the jury I would have had to find not guilty, but every fibre is telling me she wasn´t. She certainly knew a lot more than she was letting on. There is so much missing in this one. It needrf a Not Proven., but of course English law does not have that proviso.

[@BriefCaseOfficial]

300, thats good, thanks Crystal :)

[@benmcreynolds8581]

I felt like her brash statement in court was directed at investigators that they should look into the husband's secret affairs. Maybe it was a tactic to shift blame off of herself? Maybe he did have a bad reputation of treating women badly and continously being unfaithful to his wife..? Maybe she was just jealous and angry and trying get back at him for hurting her? Idk but it seems like she was lucky she wasn't found guilty and that it was hard to prove without a shadow of doubt in a court of law.. My gut is telling me she was a part of it.

[@boosqueezy2418]

same

[@Boo-dawg.]

I believe she killed her. I don't have any way to prove it, but it just seems pretty clear.. and I just have a feeling. The woman seems to have a hang-up with Mr. Moore. She hinted towards him as the killer several times. So if she doesn't get her way, she gets even one way or another. If she couldn't have him he wasn't going to have a happy life again, but she could move on to her next conquest because all she lost was someone else's husband. Well, I hope that child's life was worth it.

[@lmm8960]

She should have been tried for withholding evidence.

[@seandelap8587]

Nothings is clear cut in this case and whether she was guity or not there simple wasn't sufficient evidence to convict her

[@hogwashmcturnip8930]

My thoughts exactly. I thinks she was certainly involved, if not the outright killer, but the actual evidence was so flimsy. It was very badly handled, even by Victorian standards. Where was the father? Where was this sailor? What were their True relationships with this woman? Why would such a diligent little girl bunk off school? Unless she was with someone she trusted? Why did she end up in a river in the accused´s village? To me that all rules out a random child snatcher.. Not a lot of it makes sense. Her outburst in court certainly showed she believed she had a motive. Why was nothing followed through? Poor little Georgina, her life snatched away, her body discarded like so much trash, yet no justice for her.

[@JaimeMesChiens]

There was reasonable doubt. It sounds like the investigation and inquest were not compelling.

This case was dramatised on the programme ‘In suspicious circumstances’ which is currently being shown again on Talking Pictures. Mrs Pays comments during the trial were appalling but there wasn’t enough evidence to convict this woman and indeed she may well have been innocent. At least the police did take the case seriously while Georgina was a missing person which hasn’t always happened until recents decades. Poor little Georgina

The police indeed did have a very thin case as regards solid evidence, however, the link between the woman and Yalding, her mother living less than half a mile from where the poor child's body had been discovered, would indicate to me that she was directly involved in the child's death... how many people living in Pimlico would even have heard of Yalding ?
