When I was a young teen, if I wanted to stop over at a friends house, my mum would drop me off at the house, go in and speak to the parents ensuring they knew my curfew times etc. At the time I used to be so embarrassed and thought my mum was ridiculous.

I immediately uninstalled Facebook and have never used it since. The thing that baffles me is: if Facebook recognized I was having a conversation about pizza and that triggered a lookup in my area for pizza places, how are kids talking about getting girls drink and raping them not triggering a call to the police so they can at least keep tabs on this person.

God knows how your survive such a terrible loss. The fact she actually escaped, but despite being seen by one of the n0nces neighbours half naked in the early hours, being wrestled to the ground, is never going to leave me. I know it's easy to say you'd do something when you weren't there, but i think part of it is we should be encouraging people to stick their nose in. If that man *was* a policeman, it doesn't matter! Men are men are men, and you should not doubt yourself so much. I had a similar experience and couldn't forgive the people who could have helped by just shouting, but didnt. There was no rational explanation for that. Kayleigh was also extremely brave and I can only send my sympathy, love and respect to her family and hope that every single moment is misery for these repugnant, pathetic, devious scum

[@jetsfan1957]

Again I'm appalled at the light sentences given in the U.K. to these animals when it comes to sexual assault or other violent crimes especially when juveniles are the victims!!!... 9 years in prison for that one defendant is an atrocity and just another crime against that young girl!!!..If it wasn't for him that other monster would have never had the chance to murder her!!..He should have received the same life sentence!!!...Wake up U.K. Officials!!!!... It's time for you to start handing out "Real" justice in these type cases!!!..

[@louloubelle1330]

Yh well this is how it is and they do to minced prisons which is specified for sexual predators and are put in rule 43 a protection wing. Had the parents of been more bothered then no get it right then she wouldn’t have been available and would have thought more about herself stead of seeking attention elsewhere. They should have educated her better to the dangers of social media

[@annegriffith6905]

jetsfan1957 - I am from the UK and I totally agree that the court system and sentencing is absolutely disgusting in this country. Rob a bank, commit fraud and you will serve a long sentence, but rape, assault and murder etc., and it’s something pathetic like ten years, of which they only serve half. Totally crazy and wrong.

@Zakkiyah ....I'm not totally sure what your saying or suggesting but if your blaming that poor girls parents for there daughters murder then I'm speechless!!!...

[@Lovegun.]

It’s truly pathetic how many people will turn a blind eye to people in need of help. So many “just don’t wanna get involved”. Tough. By witnessing it, you’re already involved. The only difference between a hero and a coward, is a hero takes action. How many awful crimes could be stopped if people took action…….

[@Claudia-es8jv]

Agreed!

[@inasyal6311]

Yes yes exactly what I thought about stupid neighbours. Why can't you just call the police. Also the fact that he thought it is domestic abuse isn't making it any better. If woman is hurt and you see it's call the police or if you feel strong enough and brace enough like a little brave man in London who protected elderly woman from stabbing. He died like a hero. Lovely Muslim man. He will be forever remembered.......he did not think twice before he jumped in to protect that woman.

[@grottybt5006]

Depends. Some areas you get fatigued with constant noises and trouble in the street and if nobody's being overtly murdered you might not even get up

[@tingting8586]

Be a hero can be hard! But pick up a phone to call a police is easy, those crowd won’t even able to do that!

@@tingting8586 it's not suppose to be easy. That's why it's called being a hero. Yes you're endangering yourself by doing something but you would want the same if you were in their position.

Kayleigh, may your soul rest in peace. ☹️ I wish she had left once she saw an adult instead of the 18year old that she thought she was meeting. This is the most heart wrenching incident that I ever heard. RIP baby girl ❤️

[@no_peace]

She may not have been able to

[@stephenbanks5952]

But it seems that the danger didn't happen until the second day. She arrived on the Friday and then called on the Saturday asking if she could stay for another night. So maybe everything was OK at first but on the second day things got out of hand and erupted into violence. He was only a year older than he had told her so she likely wasn't shocked at his age.

Thank-you Truly Criminal for another well covered episode, I often wonder if telling these horrific stories may take a toll on you in the long run - you do a lot of investigation and reading - one can never unread or unsee what has been read or seen. I truly hope not, all the more strength and courage to you...

[@morganablackwater2017]

...women aren't vournelable - your vagina does not make you disabled. Go get into wendu or aikido and cut this nonsense... Its actually hate speech. Women are equal peoples and can do the same as men - it your mentality makes you a victim. Get over yourself

[@laurenalanna]

@@morganablackwater2017 If you don’t agree.. and you fail to recognize pure biology, then make a comment somewhere else. Don’t tell me I’m using hate speech. Be trapped in a room with a grown man and see how much stronger he his naturally if he tried to overpower you. That’s why they call it “grown man strength”. There’s nothing from stopping a man, from trying to overpower a woman on the street while her back is turned. There’s a reason why men don’t prey on other men. Don’t be naive… and please be careful. Seriously. Women are PREYED on by mean. Stay woke… women really be getting snatch.

Please tell me why these sentences outside of america are so low for rape assault and murder

[@beckiematthew4637]

Because the uk justice system isn't very good and people get little sentences for there crimes.

[@jennifercarr9111]

They try to rehabilitate prisoners in the UK and Canada, unlike the US where they lock you up and treat you like the monster you are for these type of crimes. I think the sentences will change eventually but sadly it's at the cost of so many lives. I do wonder what the reoffence rate is in the UK.

[@mariella2884]

Exactly! I’m UK born and now in the US. The crimes that come from a majority of EU countries along with Australia, New Zealand, and the UK are seemingly always given rehabilitation. The sentences are not approapriate for those who show a terrifying lack of appreciation for human life.

[@steffi6918]

@@beckiematthew4637 And never actually serve the full sentence given, because for some inexplicable reason the justice or lack there of in the UK then automatically reduces the sentence to serve half or 2/3s it's a disgrace!

[@KplusJmakes0312]

I hate when a newspaper prints a picture of a teenager but instead of using a current picture they put one that is from when they were like 10 or younger. It’s so misleading. Whether they do it for a victim or a teen that has committed the crime. We don’t need to think the victim is younger for us to be outraged by what happened to her. And in the case of the person committing the crime we need to know exactly what they look like to be aware and know they are someone to be careful of.

Very well presented and respectful to Kayleigh, her family and Leics Police. The terror and violence meted out on this beautiful, innocent child is beyond repulsive!! Their sick abuse and horrific assault on poor Kayleigh, fills me with absolute and total revulsion!! Beadman was a coward who could not take his punishment. Other than his family, no-one will mourn him. Harlowe will be a threat and risk to children for the entirety of his life. I hope the parole board and probation service will seriously take that into account when he is due for release and ENSURE that he will never get the opportunity to harm another child.
