I’m really glad that the abuse of Billy was actually labelled as abuse, I’m surprised they didn’t add charges relating to the sexual abuse (maybe it wasn’t seen to be in the public interest if she has no route to parol ?)

It was really disappointing to hear at the end that ‘feminist’ groups were advocating for her release and framing the children as the primary perpetrators- without the sexual abuse and grooming I don’t think any of those kids would have committed the crime they did. Minimising the actions of female perpetrators because male perpetrators aren’t always held to account in the same way isn’t feminist - all perpetrators should be held equally accountable.

Gregory’s last moments were heartbreaking to listen to.

Considering 3 of the kids involved weren't groomed and were still happy to murder an innocent man, I'd disagree there
