My heart goes out to her husband, it’s horrible enough to lose your wife but to then have people trying to point the finger at you must be truly heartbreaking.
Unfortunately it happens a lot, I'm pretty sure immediate people to the victim are always suspects until proven otherwise, I hope he's doing better now though. I can't imagine the horror of losing your wife,
yes he also feeling guilty of not replying to her messages on the time and be with her that night
"It was convenient that he was the one that discovered her missing."
People really be out here forgetting that the person you LIVE WITH would of course likely be the first to notice you missing. And thus use that as a point of saying he may have had a hand in it.
40 odd year old man who has been repeatedly jailed for rape and assault since 18 was still walking free? No justice for women I swear
Totally agree, it's absolutely disgusting.
@@greenie1422 7uuuuiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiioiiiiioiooioiioiiiiovh
Lookioiioooi
M.m.m?mommy?
Agreed.
@@minepromystical2020 eyyou l
Australia never gives harsh punishments for sexual assault or r@pe.
I went with a friend to support her while she reported a grown man for raping her and also told the police he was dating a 14 year old and that she was only here to make the report so another person, namely a child, wouldn't experience what she did.
They said "sorry it can't be proved and we cannot do anything"
the footage of him chasing after her sent chills down my spine.
so fucking scary
i hate that we live in a world where a woman refusing man's unwanted advances is seen as rude and can get her killed
It’s fucking insane that that is reality. Doesn’t add up
some men truly think that sexism isn't a thing anymore and people aren't like that. but its cases like this that evoke fear in women and similar cases that make other minorities scared to even step foot out of their house. sexism is real,, especially now of all times.
@@jakeyboy203 yea because they don't owe them anything especially if they just want to be left alone
@@jakeyboy203 also this seems really incel like and victim blamey
@@owencolbon2400 no women are the Victim Blamey ones 😁
Someone who has repeatedly been accused of AND convicted of rape, shouldn't be free to be walking around - ever! 😡
This. Stuff like this is what happens when the justice system trivializes sex crimes and the abuse of women. I've heard so many stories where the perpetrator was a criminal that was let out far too early. Why cant we throw the whole book at them instead of just a page? Why must we sacrifice our safety for the freedom of criminals?
This a huge problem in the justice systems around the world I think & what's even more crazy a lot of times the suspect has sessions wit therapists & they tell the courts this person still has violent tendencies & will offend again but they still somehow are let out 🤦🏾♂️ like I get if their sentence is up they can't jus hold them for no reason but maybe something else needs to happen before they are ever let loose in the general population where they can reoffend if u know what I mean? Like with Jeff Dahmer for an example or John Gacy where their drs literally said if they are let out they will hurt sum1 again then when they are freed next thing u know they fuckin have funeral homes literally inside & under their houses it's very enraging truthfully
conservatives tried to get harsher sentences but they were called "mean" 🤷♀️
Exactly
Put them in a wheelchair and you don't have to worry
Guys say all the time: “just be polite. If a man hits on you and you don’t want it, be polite and tell them no.”
This is what we are afraid of. This is what happens when we say no, no matter how polite or friendly we are. This is why we are afraid, and why we don’t appreciate “persistence” when it is unwanted affection. This is why we can’t walk home alone, or go to the bathroom by ourselves in a bar. This is why we “lead guys on” and give out fake numbers and don’t call back when we’ve already said no and they will not take no for an answer.
This should be a pinned comment ^ well said
yes :(
🙄
@@KamalasFakePolls something you’d like to add? Maybe your experiences in being a woman…?
@@princessashley6784 maybe that's a man 🤢
i cant believe people like this are let out of jail like what makes you think a serial offender wont offend again???
Literally rapists cannot be cured. It’s like pedophilia like it’s what they’re into. They should be sentenced for life!!! No parole. Same with pedophiles and serial killers. There is no saving these kinds of people, keep them locked up forever!
yeah like its called serial for a reason. it wasnt once, it was multiple times
Because Australian justice system is as slack as all get out….as for being on parole I live in Brisbane and apparently it’s NOT an offence to commit a crime while on parole aka it won’t go against your parole…what a joke why bother with parole. I always thought if a crime was committed when on parole it mean straight to prison. Apparently not, well not in Brisbane anyway, dear corrupt pally doesn’t give a shit if a crime is committed when on parole. As for youth crime, close to where I live in two seperate instances 15 yr old boys were murdered by other youths, but the perpetrators got more compassion, rights, and protection than the family of the victims. The quicker she is voted out the better our state will start to be, once all her corrupt decisions are undone …. Crime, they just get a slap on the hand, she doesn’t care less about anything except herself and lining her own pocket. People actually voted her in because she kept the state “safe” during covid, I was dumbfounded that people would have such a stupid reason for voting this narcissistic woman in again.
I remember this case, it was extensively covered I think mainly because she was from Ireland, they don’t usually bother with reporting crimes/murders from other states, media doesn’t think it’s important for the public to know about. It was so sad, as any murder is and I am not surprised he was out on parole, I am surprised he got 35 years, they don’t normally get that long in Australia…most murders are out in 5-10….they are so gutless when it comes to justice, like we might upset someone if we come down hard on people. 😡
Australia is a sucky country for the justice. I know this because I am Australian and I'm ashamed of the Australian Justice System.
@@Aussie.Lassie 100% agree..I am Australian and it’s embarrassing when it comes to justice because there never is any. They are too gutless to actually punish people ….it makes me so angry seeing criminals walk away with “time served” or “suspended sentence” good behaviour, it’s just crazy there is NO deterrent…..
Wow, I just am imagining how different things would have been if she took that ride home. So crazy how a small decision like that can change our lives.
I always think this
She was in the wrong place at the wrong time and bumped into the wrong person. Just so unfortunate.
I turned down a taxi home with my friend once after a night out and got mugged walking home, now I never walk home alone and never let my friends walk home alone either.
@@FrEeKCuT I’m so sorry I hope it’s better
"sliding doors moment" Emma Kenny would say.
I'm from Ireland, pretty close to where Jill was from and I remember a teacher in secondary school speaking to us about safety and not walking home alone, she showed us the CCTV footage of Jill and it was so jarring, it was pretty soon after it happened. I remember it being on the news, it was everywhere. It's just so sad that this happened. I hope her and her family are as close to at peace as possible ❤
Thinking about Ashling Murphys case too
i lived around the corner from where she was taken from. this was a horrendous time for the people of melbourne. thanks for covering this case!
Same!! I was 16 at the time and I would feel so safe on Sydney road, the vibe shifted and women were fearful of being alone
i can’t believe it’s been 10 years since this case!
my heart still breaks for her family, the parole board stuffed this one up
Yes seems like yesterday! It's still so fresh in my mind
10 years?? No. I cannot parse that, that's so weird. It feels like it was 3 years ago Max. May her memory be a blessing.
As well as the judge who sentenced him in the first place. 11 years for 8 rapes is disgustingly lenient. if course he would offend again.
@@Ellie_xo ygyçugr up
The parole board always do, no one should get parole for cases like this, the sentences are so slack as it is they should be made to serve the full time !
Thank you eleanor for always being so kind whilst also having these gruesome stories
-
It’s her job she’s a good person stop
Being a kiss arse x
@@starsigngirl9789 Oi, I really always wanted to be a kiss arse, so I accomplished that. Furthermore why is it bad to congratulate her for doing a good job?
Sorry, had to pause, these internet trolls thought it was suspicious he was the one to notice her missing? I'm sorry, but who else would notice her missing before him? He's her husband. They share a bed. Of course he's going to be the one to notice she never made it home when he's the one that lives with her. So dumb and unnecessary. I'm sure it broke Tom's heart to know people thought he was involved.
the video of him running after her deeply disturbed me it’s such a real thing that could happen to any woman
Thankyou for covering Jill’s case. I haven’t seen anyone else cover her so far. It was a really heart wrenching case here in Australia, especially considering how preventable it was, if our justice system actually worked as it should!😡😡😡 R.I.P Jill ❤
Mollie Westbrook did a video on this case last year.
@@jossykerflossy915 I don’t follow her, but I’ll go have a look, thanks!
we actually spent a few classes talking about jill’s case in my year ten legal class a couple years back, heartbreaking story and shocking to hear when i feel safe in melbourne :(
jill sounded like such a genuine and kind soul
I feel so horrible also for the coworker who offered her a ride home. He must feel incredible guilt and what ifs even if it wasn't their fault
As a person who lives in Melbourne and who has lived/worked on the north side, I really appreciate you covering this case! I wont lie, orignially coming from a small country town I would walk home by myself at 3am after going out in the city.. when i think back to that time, I had absolutely no street smarts and cases like this remind me that even "safe" areas are not safe. It's a brutal reminder that we always need to keep an eye out for danger, and trust our gut!
I don't understand why when someone repeating rapes isn't in jail for life. Even one committed crime like this is seriously enough troubling for me.
This case still breaks my heart. As a Melbournian, I can tell you that Jill's senseless murder is still talked about. As soon as I saw her photo on your video, my heart sank and tears started to well up in my eyes. I never walk alone at night because of her story
Still talked about across the whole country hey. So sad
Yeah as soon as I saw the picture I knew too. The amount of times they showed it on the news when she went missing… it’s burned into my mind now.
It was such a sad sad case. I’m from Melbourne too. This one stuck with me
It certainly made Melbournians feel less safe in our wonderful city. RIP Jill. Never forgotten
So when did you have spine removal surgery? I had someone break into my apartment I fought them I live in a city where there crime just last month we had a murder and shaking like scooby doo if I see a shadow.........is the exact opposite of what I do I still take summer walks to the store past midnight while barefoot could I have been a little less mean sure but I wanted to get across how stupid it is to live life in fear you can't go through life being afraid all men have alternative motives and not one just wants a wife and family 75% of men and this will shock you don't want to kill you
This was a really important story for me to hear tonight. I was working an art show in the downtown bar area and having this story in the back of my mind made me say yes to the extra help and letting my coworker make that short drive to my car parked further away. Always worth it to play it safe.
Stop letting out rapists. Treat rape as serious as murder. They always repeat.
Thank you, Eleanor, for all that you and your research team do. Thank you for always keeping your videos focused on the victims and not glorifying the killers, which happens way too often. I'm a big fan for these reasons, and I always look forward to hearing you tell these stories!
This case was another example of the Australian court system letting down the police and the public.
The Aussie police are second to none when it comes to catching these scumbags, sadly our weak sentences imposed by out of touch magistrates continually put violent repeat offenders back on the streets.
Parole boards and magistrates should be held accountable for their actions, it is only then that we will see these predators put away for the good of society.
Don't forget magistrates and juges can only give sentences according to the law. They cannot make up their own sentences even if they would like to sentence someone to more years. It is out of their hands.
@@helenbartoszek243 the law needs to change unfortunately it never will. It might in some bits but it will never be good enough to punish horrible people enough..
@@helenbartoszek243 I understand that, however when was the last time you saw an offender actually get the maximum allowed sentence imposed.
@@mili-on1692 personally I would wait for the scum to finish the weak sentence the courts gave them so their real punishment could begin, and I don't believe in God so I'm not talking about some make believe punishment when they die.
@@darthphilfy Yes, true.
eleanor is always so respectful in her videos i love her🤍
you know that the justice system is f*cked when the same criminal admits it. That monster still deserves the worst. May Jill rest in peace. Beautiful soul.
This happened a few blocks away from me. I also live a street away from the cemetery she was buried at. I remember it was a school holiday and the cemetery was completely packed with people setting off balloons. I’ve never seen the cemetery so busy. It rocked Melbourne at the time. So sad 😢
My friend lives near there too and always walked home by herself from bars there..he mustve got Jill when she walked from main road to her house as theres always people out late at night on the main street as you know.
You’re right! I’ve walked in Brunswick and it’s always so busy no matter what hour. It’s truly upsetting that women cannot walk alone at night. I, myself am too scared to walk at night and need to have somebody with me.
@@jasmineaoun2816 me too, I’ve never walked alone at night, i was always telling my friend, now she is extra careful as she lives near there. I lived in melb for years and i always walked in groups at night too and even with a few women together you would still get harassed..once during the day i was harrassed by a man in a brand new Mercedes and i almost threw my bike at his car i was so outraged, i took to wearing fake buddy holly glasses and army boots but it didnt stop really. People say, oh its what women wear…eeeer no its not…its the fact you are a young woman. Heck i was wearing baggy sweats and baggy top not showing anything…still hassled.
I’m Australian and this case was MASSIVE here. I always think about her whenever I’m walking at night
Stay safe and it’s unfortunate that people like that exist ♥️
I agree with you about the man finding Jill’s bag. The lanyard had “abc radio” on it, surely if he was trying to get it back to Jill, he could have taken it to the radio station at least!
Me too but I totally get why he wouldn’t say his intention was to steal not only was he speaking to the police but the handbag belongs to a person who’s missing. I think his explanation could’ve used some work tho just didn’t make much sense
truee i never thought about that!
@@bushdenae oh for sure! I live in Australia and I think the police would have turned a blind eye if he did tell the truth about stealing the handbag, because they had much bigger things to worry about at the time.
I kind of get his story. I will leave purchases I want to return in my house or car for at least a week before I actually get around to or remember to return them
It’s really amazing that you’ve covered a case so close to home. I love 15 mins away now from where this happened and this case truely shook Australia and brought so much light to the protection of women ❤️ love u even more for doing this
12 counts of rpe.
11 year sentence.
8 years served before release.
Absolutely ridiculous.
I'm from Sydney, Australia and Jill's story was huge here. It is honestly so heartbreaking. I had no idea that Adrian was caught through his license plate (or that he had a girlfriend). I was 20 years old at the time and it made me so scared as a woman who often walks home alone myself. I still remember when he was caught and felt so relieved. Thanks so much for covering Jill's story, Eleanor. It had a huge affect on many of us here in Australia and still does to this day.
This case is such a sad one. I think every woman in Australia really felt it and were so badly hoping she'd be found alive. It prompted huge protests in Australia to bring attention to violence against women. And Jill's husband Tom has become an advocate for ending that violence.
It’s ridiculous that he still has the possibility for parole because the judge thinks he looked remorseful 😡
This case hurt, even though I was 10 at the time I was invested constantly asking my mum if there have been any updates. It was really eye opening to me as a child of how scary the world truly is. My mum stills thinks of her around that time of year, it truly affected everyone in Melbourne and even all over Australia
Same!!!! I was 9 from Melbourne, this was the first true crime case that stuck with me and I was always asking my mum for updates and watching the news
I hesitated to watch this one. I saw her photo in the thumbnail and just felt so tired. This was all over our media. But it is good to bring this up, it just gets so exhausting. Women being murdered just for existing and men being entitled and then people debating about "her part" in it by, you know.. existing.
why wasn't there a jumpscare warning for his mug shot 💀
My thoughts exactly that was some nightmare fuel 😭
Right?? 😭😭😭
No because I literally JUMPED I had to skip a couple seconds😭
And keeps on showing him 😂
I skipped past his mugshot😭
i work and study barely 2km away from where this case was and i remember hearing all the news when i was growing up, but this video has highlighted so much more about this case to me. thank you for covering this and being so respectful to the victims every time you post🤍
The CCTV footage of him charging after her was terrifying and genuinely made my heart drop.
genuinely love your videos eleanor. they always breaks my heart but i’m so glad that the victims get the justice they deserve.
right! i enjoy that eleanor starts with the victims stories, not the killers
@@ry1774 fr
@@ry1774 like it makes me feel more about the victims and they did not deserve it at all
@@ry1774 yes exactly!!
the pictures of him at 26:00 literally made my heart stop he looks so terrifying.... I wouldn't trust him either if I was Jill. this is clearly a dangerous man who should not have been on the streets. so upsetting.
God fr, even his mugshots are sooo uncanny valley
These kind of cases spook me out so much because it scares me to death how you can be so unsafe and never know what will happen to you as always amazing research Eleanor
I lived literally on breese street Brunswick which was like 1 min walk from where she got killed on Hope street at the time. It was so unreal when it happened. The area is quite populated and so when this happened it shocked a lot of people. She was so close to getting home which makes it it so much more terrifying and tragic.
Jill seemed like such a sweet, genuine soul. Breaks my heart that things like this happen all the time. Thank you Eleanor for telling these cases with such grace and respect, and giving the victims the voice they deserve ❤️
You're the most respectful true crime channel I have ever seen
Sherrilyn Dale is also very respectful to the victims 😊🙏
@@DoorsToHideBehind156 so is Kendall Rae
Yes Sherilynn dale, kendall rae, mike from that chapter and bratterstein are all very respectful as well but eleanor is just the sweetest! Also danielle kirsty too!

As someone who is a Criminal Forensics major, I do hope you enjoy the classes! They can be really interesting and are super thorough!!
One of my dreams as well!!!
As a Melbourne girl, I remember my dad not wanting me to leave the house & being so terrified that something would happen for YEARS after this case. He still mentions it to this day when I haven’t touched base in a while.
I think a lot of people were traumatised in many ways by this case.
Thank you for doing this case!
It was such a huge thing in our area at the time!
Disgusting man!
It’s completely insane how they found him. This story is fascinating and terrible. He’s terrifying, I can’t imagine what it would be like to have him walk up on you like that.
I know arm chair detective accusing the husband is a very small part of this case. And I know that partners generally are involved and are the first suspect. But saying “it’s convenient that her husband was the one that noticed she was missing” is super messed up. If my husband doesn’t notice I’m missing and he doesn’t report me missing then he’s definitely guilty.
Hi Eleanor! I just want to say how much I love you, and your content! I’m really stressed right now because I figured out that I’m pregnant, and knowing I have your video to watch really calms me down. I’ve been trying to solve cases in my home town for a couple years now as a hobby, and when I see your name come up it only motivates me more. Thank you so much. Fan from New Hampshire U.S.A.
All the best to you hun, whatever you choose to do will be the best choice. Take deep breaths, write a list of pro and cons and good luck for the future ❤️❤️❤️
Aw, i wish you a safe birth!!! [Ofc if your keeping the baby :) ]
Go with your gut and don't let anyone decide for you! Love from Maine
@@shitneyb5562 Well said
I remember this case when it happened (live in Melbourne).
The amount of victim blaming was *horrendous*. Anyone and everyone who mentioned this case would say that "Jill would still be alive if she didn't threaten him." Essentially, almost everyone around were saying that if she hadn't told Bayley (during the r*pe) that she worked for the news etc, and she would make sure he was found, then he wouldn't have killed her.
That's the mentality over here. It's no different now, either, ten years on. The misogyny is real. I always found it really f*cked up that it was the automatic response/comment to blame her for what had happened to her, not to attack Bayley and his actions and his motives.
So dark.
I've never felt unsafe walking in Melbourne alone at night, with the sheer visibility. But I probably should reconsider this.
People also ask what were you wearing
Or if she wasn’t dressed like that, he wouldn’t have done that 😑
I am in awe of you! Thank you for bringing all these stories to light!
Thank you for being respectful to the victim and not loving the killers. Thank you so so much.
I remember this case happening. Was very sad seeing the husband on the news, and them releasing some cctv footage of Jill walking home. Very heart breaking.
I am from Melbourne, Australia. This case was huge when it happened and I felt so sorry for her husband because everyone attacked him and blamed him before the police found Adrian guilty. This definitely changed how women in Melbourne would spend nights out, we all felt less safe. Rip to Jill xx
I don't have telegram I just googled it and seen that it is an app, I have never heard of it. Can I message you another way
To see him running after Jill is absolutely terrifying, he deserves every thing he gets. Rest in peace Jill.
This broke my heart when it happened. I was a police officer in Sydney, Australia, a neighbouring state to Victoria where this happened beautiful Jill. Just so sad for all involved but Tom especially. You can see how broken he was, they loved each other so much 💔
Ladies always carry a weapon IDC what the laws are. Even if it's a fork from a restaurant. Always carry something. I'd rather plead my case in court than to leave my family. Rather be judged by 12 than carried by 6. Protect
yourselves.
I gasped when I saw you covered this case. I am from Victoria Australia and at the time my family was in Melbourne (I was 10) I remember not knowing much about the darkness of the world at that age but I remember we were walking home from dinner and I saw her missing person posters on light poles and I just knew in my heart she was not alive anymore. This case was a core memory in childhood about the darkness of the world and the prevalence of violence against women. I remember feeling an emotion I could not put my finger on even at that tender age. RIP Jill x
Jill seemed like such an amazing person that was truly the light of so many people's lives. I hope her family has found some peace after this.
thank you so much for spending so much time researching and spreading awareness on these cases. it must be such hard work and its amazing what you do.
i can watch eleanors videos for days and never get bored
Same
I binge watched all her videos for weeks
@@melxn.masato so do I, her videos are highly entertaining
@@alwhis I'm not sure I'd call videos about people's death 'highly entertaining' but I do agree her videos are well-researched and insightful.
@@AMMA83What? I never said deaths are 'highly entertaining'... I'm simply interested in true crime things, and think Eleanor's videos are best. I'm not sure what you thought of my comment, but me saying that people dying is 'entertaining' is far from what i actually meant
I live in Brunswick and what is even more scarier is that the police station was literally around the corner from where it happened, none of us women have felt the same since this happened, RIP Jill.
Not sure if you came across this in your research Eleanor but Bailey also violated is parole a few months earlier when he king hit a mate of mine on a night out and broke his jaw. He had a court date, plead guilty and they let him go back out on bail after he appealed his sentence. He was caught being violent yet again and they just let him back out on the street. The Victorian court system let Jill down.
You do such a good job sharing these victims stories. You tell it with love and compassion and act like you could easily befriend so many of them if not all.
Love you, doll!!!
I remember this being all over the news when I was in primary school. Very sad story. One of the first things that made me understand how bad the world is sometimes
Please don't ever leave any of your friends behind!!
One of the saddest things is that the title could apply to so many cases. She deserved so much more. Could you consider covering the case of Sarah Everard who also died just walking home.
we live in a society where women declining to speak to a man's unwanted attention is just "rude" and could get her unwanted intimacy , or even death. its so stupid.
I was 12 when this happened and it was the first true crime case that I remember hearing about and it was terrifying to me that this could happen. My heart goes out to her family its truly a horrific case 😔
WHYYY do they let these psychos out of prison??? she would have been alive if he had served his full sentence and honestly after doing that to children he should be locked up for LIFE
Because women’s lives don’t matter to police, judges and society
been waiting for this one, i live so close to where this happened and it has always shaken me up, its hard to truly comprehend that things like this can happen in real life until something happens so close to home. it really rattled everyone when this happened but especially young women living nearby, this could have happened to anyone of us.
I’m from Melbourne Australia and live close to Brunswick. I’m so glad you covered this case. I was 13 when this case happened and it was such a big thing, it was everywhere and there were protests.
i adore that you caught yourself when you said “she was lucky” and corrected it to “she was good at her job”
Polite suggestion? I love listening to your videos and appreciate your research and the effort you put into explaining cases in more detail, though the titles you use make it hard to find previous videos about certain people that I want to refer back to.
I understand the need for a catchy title but when I try to go back to re watch or show someone when I'm talking about it I struggle to find the video as the names of those involved are often excluded.
Constructive feedback and a suggestion to maybe think about how you title your videos?
Wow it's almost like someone who repeatedly harms others should be jailed for life or something
this is what scares me because it’s such a real fear when i’m walking out places alone especially at night
I remember this. I was living in the same neighborhood as Adrian Bayley at the time and was familiar with his face. I had walked up Sydney Rd half an hour before her attack. The missing posters were so sad and there was a huge march for Jill down Sydney Rd and massive flower piles at the local church and in the alleyway. It was all anyone talked about for ages. Thanks for covering this story.
This happened on one of my holidays to Melbourne. I was with a friend of mine, and we had gone to Brunswick Street for dinner and a few drinks that night, but we ended up staying out quite late. This happened while we were still there ☹️
When the news came out, it was one of the big moments in my life that REALLY opened my eyes that anything can happen at any time. The world is a scary place.
I live in Melbourne and this case absolutely crushed me. Jill was so relatable, a young woman just out in Brunswick having a good time with her friends. This absolute germ of a human should never have been paroled. The way the caught him out was amazing, he had her sim card on his coffee table (or similar) when they came to question him at his home.
I am Australian. It is very normal for Aussies to do a “pub crawl” on Friday and Saturday nights because in most of our towns and even small cities, the bars and clubs are set up on most street corners. For example, the town I grew up in had a population of 15,000 and had eight pubs on eight corners, and all of those corners were maybe a 1-2 minute walk at most. So you’d regularly see Australians that had worked hard all week, going on a pub crawl and walking with their friends or co-workers from one pub to the next until they all close around 1 AM. I did it many times in my late teens and early 20’s so I related to this story instantly and I’m so sorry that this happened to Jill. I bet the husband is kicking himself for missing that phone call.😔😭
Could you look into the unsolved case of Noah Donahoe? He was found dead in 2020 under suspicious circumstances, and his mother has been fighting police for information on his death, for them to investigate her son's death. I think a video would bring this to a lot of peoples' attention. Have a great day, Eleanor! 😊
This story was incredibly heart breaking for everyone in Melbourne, i live around the corner from this and things like this just never happened. The fact the man was out on bail was disgusting. r.i.p Jill
You tell true crime stories better than anyone else bro
Sounds like Jill's refusal probably set him over the edge and he took out his anger from the argument with his girlfriend on Jill. Some people are like a row of dominoes.
Most sex offenders who go to jail, rape again when they are released. These guys are sick to their minds...sex offenders should be imprisoned forever. A murderer who kills someone might regret it and never do that again when they are released, but not sex offenders.
Thank you Eleanor for covering this case. These monsters need to have harsher sentences so cases like Jill’s and Eliza Fletcher’s don’t keep happening! Rest in peace Jill. 💗 My thoughts and prayers are with Jill’s family and loved ones. 💞
It is so terrifying to be approached alone in the street. Women, reading this, I have protected myself from creepy men approaching me alone at night after work, by being loud, assertive, and threatening to call police if they came closer. This makes them think you're crazy and not worth the hassle.
It made me so sad at the part where you talked about when she met her husband and that they were each other’s person 🥺😭 my husband is my person my best friend in the entire world. We’ve been together for almost 13 years now and I love him so much I couldn’t imagine my life without him. 💕 and to the people who said it was "convenient" that Tom was the first person to realize that Jill was missing... uhm!!? Of course he was!! He was her husband?! Her other half she spent her life with?? I'm sorry but I don't understand how they don't get that? My husband would automatically be the first person to notice something was wrong and that I was missing?! Because we literally spend our lives together...
I wish casteify and youtubers did a discount better than 15% because it covers tax and the cases are so unaffordable😢
This will get buried but please read this eleanor.
Theres a woman called Abigail fisher from castleford west Yorkshire England. She was a primary school teacher and my year 3 teacher. She was so sweet loving and my best friend in primary school.
Her husband murdered her a few months ago.and maybe could you cover it. Please consider it for my teachers sake
boosting! may she rest in peace ❤
@@taylormccann9898 thank you so much
I opened RUclips for the first time today and I see that you posted 30 mins ago. You have no idea how that brightened my day!! forever grateful for you and the way that you produce content, we love you beautiful🤍
I get so excited when I get notifications from you! You're literally the best crime covering RUclipsr ever!
This is one of the only times I’ve been impressed with how quickly and well police have acted. Rest peacefully Jill. I hope her family and Tom find peace
So tired of seeing so many cases like this one in which the pervert goes thru the justice system only briefly and always escalates to murder. Sex offenders should be given lifelong sentences
💯
This case was huge here in Australia,
I was only 13, 23 now. The case was huge and it raddled all of us, it still now even has a huge impact on me, I’m still so weary walking alone (I’m from a small town and it had never impacted me before )
I can’t imagine the pain, her poor family experienced.
you know it’s a good day when Eleanor posts
This is one of my earliest memories as an Irish woman. May her beautiful soul rest in peace.
