Big shout out to Karen’s friends that got that confession out of her, to put yourself at risk to help others is one of the best acts of kindness. God bless lady’s.
When i was 3, I went missing for an hour or two Apparently my mother was frantic, she had the next door neighbour's looking all around the estate, she was cycling around the entire estate while she had my brother and sister with another neighbour. She was frantic but determined. Turns out I had fallen asleep in the cupboard under the stairs as it was warm but that reaction compared to this mother's... Complete opposite ends of the spectrum. I hope Shannon is doing well now
I went missing once for a few hours too lol. I think I was three also, my parents has my uncle over and they were talking to him and I was trying to get my mom's attention because I wanted to play hide and seek. They didn't hear me but I apparently didn't notice and went to hide. My parents searched all over the house, the entire neighborhood, they called my uncle to ask if I got in the back of his truck and nobody noticed, and they were calling neighbors since I had friends next door that I'd play with sometimes. They couldn't find me at all. My dad insisted on checking all of the hiding places in the house over again and this time they went into my room and checked under the bed and saw nothing but extra blankets and stuffed animals that I had stuffed under there. Apparently I'd fallen asleep and tried to roll over because they saw movement and that was the only reason they found me. My mom was crying and was panicking and my dad was super worried and had been trying to keep it together for my mom but he kinda broke down when they found me. My mom said that she was so mad and happy at the same time when they finally found me lol
I used too just walk down to my aunties house so the round-up near in mind I lived in this same estate and my mum and dad were involved in the whole thing
karen literally couldve just told her boyfriend that shannon went to a friend’s house to study or stayed after school with a teacher for extra help. but she decided to waste $3million of taxpayers’ money just so she didnt have to tell her boyfriend that she was leaving him..... how insane
well its mentioned multiple times in the video that shes got learning disabilities and shes really easily swayed like a child and shes not very smart so
She had also seen how much money and attention the parents of Madeleine McCann got and wanted the same. She copied some of the things that Madeleine’s mum did, but she wasn’t prepared for the classism of the British media.
To people asking for subtitles, if Eleanor is fine with it I'm willing to subtitle videos free of cost. I'm an American Sign Language student so i understand the importance of subtitles. Even if you want me to type them in the comments. Just let me know guys
i thought this video said it was 10 hours long and i still clicked on it ready to watch the whole thing and pull an all nighter because this channel is more important than school lets be real here
i cant believe they found her. im so happy that shes alive and i hope that the drugs didnt hurt her in the long run. It was a long time ago, and i hope that shes ok now. but the fact that donnovan and karen hurt her like this and served so little time is outrageous.
@Still Sidda I hate that people are dumb enough read the comments before watching the entire video & then complain about it uWu. The comment section is literally there to discuss about the said video
Femi Norine in the most of UK you have estates, normally these estates will have a ‘druggie’ road I suppose but you could literally be on like 2 or 3 streets away and be on honestly one of the safest streets xD
This is quite a small thing, but the little disclaimers you do at the beginning of these videos is really nice, and proves the amount of respect you have for the people involved. A good friend of mine lost a close family member to a violent crime and the way some people were so rude, nosy and disrespectful about it really annoyed me. The amount of respect you show really means a lot, and you seem to a be a very lovely, intelligent person. Keep up the good work!
I usually fold A LOT of laundry, clean both bathrooms, and wash dishes while listening because some how I get it done faster 😂! I litterly can’t fold clothes unless I hear her in the background 😂. I’ve gotten it down to a science now. I’ll pick a video according to how long my task may take 😂!
Basically what I understand is that brothers were talking about pedos being homed in an estate of their own or and island. While they are talking about this and about how it should be surrounded with electric fences etc. The mum and step dad are sat on the couch quietly not saying a word just looking sheepish.
I'm almost 30 and live in a different country. If I don't call her for long enough (depending on her mood, this can be just days). "Where you go?" "You die?" "You don't love your mother" "I die now,no one loves me". My mother is a queen of drama queens. I'm also not an only child, there are 2 more of us she does this to. Love ya mum.
it annoys me that i've literally never heard of this case, but i still hear about the McCann family everyday on the news - thank you for bringing this case to people's attention!
when this happened it was all over the news, i think they even made a tv show about it at one point... its pretty famous but why would it need to be brougt to attention still when its solved lol
JayJay Prey actually there is not enough evidence against the McCann’s and the dogs was not at all a good enough lead Madeline was most likely not found because the police down there was not stopping allot of cars and was mostly looking to find evidence against the McCann’s instead of looking for the person who might have taken her or looking around thinking she got lost so their city wouldn’t get a bad rep If the parents did it I think she would already have been found since they where only looking at the parents and they got blamed a lot check your facts and don’t blame someone without good evidence innocent until proven guilty but I do get where you are coming for at first I thought they where guilty to until I looked into the case
when she went for fish and chips for everyone..... 6 children included, the owner said they could have it on the house. Karen commented to her friend....” Oh, I should have my kids go missing more often!!!”
No, I have an 8 year old daughter and a 2 year old son and there would be no laughing, or dancing if anything happened to them. I would probably have to be hospitalized. It's not normal and it's extremely troubling.
I mean i get your point but i feel like if i was in her situation, I wouldn’t want my other kids to see my upset or anything as they are already going through a lot and i wouldn’t want them to make them go through that so i may be sad alone but not in front of them. But i do completely agree with you
I thought the same thing the first time she said it and then I realized that she said psychic by the second time she said it and it made so much more sense! 😂
I was at secondary school when Shannon went missing, one morning my friend came to the bus stop saying "I had a well strange dream last night, I dreamt shannon was found under a mattress!" we all sort of laughed it off as her being weird tbh, the next day Shannon was found - in the base of a divan! To this day I find that such a crazy coincidence!
watching all these abduction cases makes me understand why my mum was so crazy overprotective. if i was even a minute late or if i didnt text her every hour when i was out with friends she got anxious and i thought it was weird, but now (as a 20 year old with anxiety myself) i can understand - a missing child is the worst thing that could happen to a parent
This case annoys me so much. Myself and my mum, were some of the ones out searching for Shannon, as we lived in Mirfield and it's only a few miles away, for it all to be a sham. And what also made me furious was that Karen and her friends were in Asda and the manager gave them £100's of pounds worth of free shopping, as they felt bad for her. She sponged off pretty much anyone that was willing to help her.
ǝllǝʇuɐɥƆ I used to live on moorside road before me and my family moved to Mirfield. My mum and dad were interviewed a few times and also went out on searches
Eleanor said that after each six hours a person is missing, the chances of finding them halves. So after 48 hours it would be about a 0.4% chance they could be found
Shannon was drugged, abducted, heavily hidden for 3 weeks, rejected by her mother, then sent to foster care and suffered nightmares, this poor poor girl had such a rough time, and all because her mom didn't wanna be truthful with her significant other
The whole "poverty porn" thing is so fucked up to me, as an American. Like, I know how bad we are when it comes to social class, but I couldn't imagine gawking at them, especially how so many of us are on the brink at any time.
I mean, I think some reality programming in the US is along similar lines- it just tends toward a focus on mental (and occasionally physical) illness that coexists with poverty. Like a lot of TLC's my strange addiction, my 600 pound life, hoarders style programming. Doesn't make it any less surreal when you watch a bunch of social issues documentaries and RUclips recommends you toward poverty porn stuff though! Like... this is literally someone going to the grocery store... this is a bunch of kids trying to get ready for school in a small home, obviously it's noisy/messy...
@Still Sidda That was my point. They fill a similar niche, just taking advantage of odd lifestyles (at best) or mental illness (at worst) instead of poverty
I love that you always SAY your disclaimer. You don't type it and roll it over in an intro or include it the typed description. You make sure it is the first thing SAID. Thank you.
@@pidgeoncrossing963 I don't really know how to explain it but, I would recommend watching Shimmey Shay's shifting videos, she explains it well and the videos are short
I don’t like the negativity around benefits. My mum claims them and she’s NOT allowed to work because she’s not well mentally. She struggles with day to day life but she still tries her best to keep us happy and healthy. It’s not fair with the stigma around benefits. It’s really annoying and upsetting. We’re not bad people because we live on benefits and it’s not out fault to be honest... Especially when you don’t know about people’s situations.
It's viewed the same way, if not worse, in the US. I'm a single mom (we don't get single parent benefits, just child support sometimes, that barely covers anything) and I work full time (making twice the minimum wage) and go to college full time, and I get benefits for food. I've gotten so many dirty looks because I'm tattooed (before my daughter and before I was a single parent) when I use my food card in stores...
A lot of these attitudes are the same in the USA. A welfare kid goes missing and it's blamed on the parents, but a upper-midle class child goes missing and it's the next greatest tragedy.
Vincent Wise The McCanns got slaughtered and still do. This sympathy people talk about is a fallacy. And seriously how do you compare a child missing for less than a month with one that has been missing over 12 years?
It depends on the content. Child porn chargers vary heavily. The amount and also it has a category from like 16 years old like scantly dressed to young children doing disgusting acts. So his sentence would be based on those factors it’s not a one sentence fits all situation
Its infuriating how sexual crimes against kids can be haggle down and made not a big deal, even though child porn and other acts like it like being a peeping tom lead dire directly to more severe abuse against more innocent kids!
1:00:17 As a former drug addict who used to primarily abuse downer pills (opiates, benzos, allergy meds, etc) I can confirm that *this kid was higher than me and I'm shocked that she didn't OD and die* Edit: I'm 3 years sober btw.
Can you cover Hayley Dodd? She went missing in 1999 at age 17. I know of her family and a man was charged this year with her murder but will not say where her body is so a law has been passed 'No Body, No Parole' also known as 'Hayley's Law'. There's loads of information on it, including the man convicted being linked to other crimes.
That breakfast thing is true tho. I can barely get all my sims ready to eat breakfast together... In real life its even harder Edit: Thank you for the likes i am glad i made you laugh😘
@Nyla Joyner yeah i have 5 older siblings so yeah but my best friend has 10 people in her house and they most of the time actually eat on the table all together, one day i went there for a project and ate with them, fun times
I totally agree it's trash, would never dream of buying it but strange thing is they were right about Craig, the "step father" & the mom all along... They were vile human beings who neglected, abused, victimizing the children & he was a phaedophile!
When you said this case was treated completely different to the McCann case I was expecting the police to be shit but the detectives media and community input is so well
@@catsymeow4411 watch the netflix documentary on it, people talk a lot of shit about the portuguese police involved in the mccann case but more than 90 percent of the times a child goes missing the parents or close family had something to do with it and shannon's case is another example, the media was just mad that someone was investigating the perfect couple and the perfect doctor parents when in reality they still are majorly at fault for drugging their daughter to be asleep all night otherwise she could've at least had the oportunity to call for help when she was taken or the other children who were also drugged could've noticed the girl missing much sooner and go to call for help
Can you do one about Beverly Allit, she is an English serial killer who was caught guilty of murder to four children, attempting to murder three other children and causing serious harm to a further six.. The crimes were committed over a period of 59 days between February and April 1991 in the children's ward at Grantham and Kesteven Hospital, Lincolnshire, where Allit was employed a State Enrolled Nurse.. It sounds very interesting, and I know it isn't about a specific murder, but I would love to hear more about it, your videos are amazing and keep up the good work Eleanor!!
If it said above her bed “I want to live with my dad” the first place I would look at is her dads house. She walked home by herself so she could have gone anywhere!!!
It wouldn't have made any difference in the outcome because she wasn't there. I don't think its mentioned but I'm pretty sure they did check with her dad.
People who use benefits to help feed, house, or medicate their families already get looked at as if they're all lazy and worthless. Most of them work & some work multiple jobs, yet it's still not enough & they just need some help. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that. It's people like Karen, who purposely pop out tons of kids & refuse to work, just to get benefits, that reenforce the poor view people have of those on benefits.
@@dougtaylor2803 I don't have children but your comment isn't neccessarily fair or correct. Circumstances can change beyond somebody's control. Just because you can afford children now doesn't mean 5 or 10 years down the line you will. There are many reasons why somebody may need to be on benefits; illness, relationship breakdown, redundancy just to name a few.
@@dougtaylor2803 i can tell you’re extremely privileged and haven’t faced any real challenges in life. people die, parents divorce, breadwinners get injured on the job or become sick. just because you haven’t dealt with difficult things doesn’t mean that others haven’t. have some empathy
I work 36 hours a week and am a convicted felon so I can only find a job that I make 9 dollars an hour at and my husband has a trade of welding and he still only makes 15 dollars an hour and we still can't get a single penny of food stamps for a little help to feed my daughter and husband. I've always worked and so has he. The only people they will give food stamps to in Tennessee is people who DON'T WORK AT ALL and most of them never have. So no not most people that draws any kind of benefits are working people. At least not in Tennessee. A lot of people who draw checks here have never worked and never will, whether there's anything disabling them are not. It's us taxpayers who can't get any help. Sorry I am not trying to be rude or anything but I just had to share what I have experienced and seen in my life.
I was thinking of starting a channel about this or about how celebrities crash cars kill people or their dramas but this is such a good idea love her videos xx
IKR? I'm also very interested in profiling and criminology but most of the documentaries and their actors are most of the time so real, it scares the hell out of me. I'm glad I found Eleanor's channel, because she speaks clear and on point (but not coldly about the people). It's like listening to podcast!
This is so me. After 3 then I’m like dam I need to go bed. I have to work out how long my sleep would be if I go to bed at a certain time. I normally sleep from 3-8am
Can't believe it was only 10 years ago and the footage looks like it's been filmed in the 60's.. Wtf why the hell is everything so like old fashioned, feel like I've gone back in time.
It...looks like late 80- 90s clips lol. I didn't realize. Sometimes this grade if film is hard to watch in media. Like watching Japanese , Chinese or some Bollywood
Eleanor: I mean no disrespect to anyone mentioned in this video ... Except from the sun Edit: We don't sell the sun in Liverpool because of Hillsborough. You get shun the sun stickers on bins and everything! I love it
Why I can't watch Jeremy Kyle any more, it's middle/upper class TV staff making fun of working class and impoverished families with various genuine problems for profit.
I hate the stigma around council estates 😒 I grew up in an awful area with a bad reputation and I'm (hopefully) planning on studying English Literature at university. People assume that people on benefits are dumb and lazy and it honestly pisses me off. They are some of the best communities; like a big family! As this shows!
So off topic but your make up is always PERFECT. I think that and your accent and an interest in these crime videos is what keeps me watching your videos all day long. I could literally listen to you talk all day long 😂
So talented Eleanor, it’s amazing that you can make an hour long video so captivating, I’d rather watch your videos than a tv documentary with a massive budget behind it. Loyal subscriber, love watching you and your channel grow. You should be so proud of yourself ❤️
"No-one likes the sun, it's a shitty newspaper." That made me properly belly laugh, thank you! 😂 Great job as always, I'm absolutely ripping through this playlist, I love your videos so much!
One thing i hate about alot of these cases is how social services and CPS dont do much is the worst thing ever. If you don't actually want to help people and protect them which is your job then please dont become a social worker
They don't do enough at all to help people in bad situations. But then you hear of them taking children away from their parents over the smallest thing.
Social workers get a bad reputation but in so many cases their hands are tied by state laws in the US. I wanted to be a social worker until I met one and talked to her about all of the crap she had to deal with and how she could do nothing about it. I was told than that they are in a no win situation almost all of time. It wasn't something I could try to fix as a social worker since they get no say about it. It all comes down to politicians...
Yup!. It seems they’ll keep kids who are in danger, in the place where they are in danger and the parents who just need help and love their kids, they’ll take them away!. The good ones don’t last long but the nasty ones always do!
Her friend talking about going with her dad on the searches broke my heart. That's got to be so difficult, when you're that young, and you're dealing with something so awful.

K S. Oh, and be mindful of the fact that she has many troll accts, Twitter, etc. Shes been busted a few times! It was hilarious when her IP was traced back on The Dirty.com when she called kristen kaye a fat ass & critisized her for being "just a cashier". She also critisized her husband for being black. GEE, I wonder how channon Rose & Brye Ashley win a defamation/harrassment case against her👮wonder why she removed her Fit Box video? And the video about her dog getting bit. Wonder why she removed "suicide survivor" from her Banner/About page? Hmmmm consistently inconsistent, or just a liar😁👁now shes a "mum" to honey bunny...girl is from Arizona! Run for the hills Eleanor!!!
Growing up on a council estate, we also grew up around A LOT of pedos, every time one was moved onto the street any houses with small children would have to be informed, and it happened alarmingly frequently. We moved in the end thank god but it just blows my mind that they always end up housing them on these low income neighbourhoods where most of the kids are high risk...
They need pedo & sex offenders village or something where they cant live anywhere near children and be under watch bcs these people hardly ever stop doing it again and their action against the survivors never fully heal
@@IraQxNajafiaThat's a thing in Florida, but they aren't being monitored so it's a pedo paradise according to them. Not sure if everyone there has reoffended, but as you said it's sadly common.
I hate all the sympathy and help the McCanns got. They left their small children alone in a hotel room while they went out. If they hadn't been so reckless she never would have been taken.
max sanderson I believe the point she’s making is, the McCanns got sympathy based solely on their social status and professional titles. What they did was just as bad as this yet they were afforded sympathy, empathy and millions of pounds to search for their daughter who is missing due to their own ineptitude and lack of proper care for her wellbeing. As opposed to the blame being immediately laid upon Karen Matthews and rightly so, however totally diametric responses.
It's interesting that she mentioned how the McCanns got treated so differently because I didn't see that. I've only recently heard of Madeline's story through these types of videos and every single comment mentions the parent's part in whole thing. I don't know anyone that believes they didn't have a part in it. This couple (Karen and Craig) got hounded by a trashy newspaper, but they were right. Hhhhmmm.
Council house..equals section 8 housing in the US👍 That “poverty porn” thing is disgusting and inhumane. And I thought the US was gross about reality tv.
@@maisieanne1515 I grew up homeless in San deigo, without my parents really around, section 8 helped alot of homeless elderly and kids on SSDI off the streets, it doesn't solve the housing crisis but section 8 housing basically keeps disabled, vulnerable, marginalized or people who struggle with mental health from starving on the streets. I know you gotta qualify for it somehow though, I wouldn't know because I had a temporary guardian as a kid do it for me.
well i mean, thats what happens when your country is 1000+ years old, the class system has been engrained into our culture and society for a VERY long time
Terry Johnson Every time she says ‘case’ I hear ‘kiss’ for a second before I register the word properly based on common sense 😂 I LOVE her beautiful accent though.
The thing that made me question Karen is the fact that she wasn't even out trying to look for shannon. If that was my kid I would be looking day and night
There's a really good book called 'Chavs' the demonisation of the working class that makes very interesting comparisons on the Shannon Matthews/Madeleine McCann cases from media coverage/portrayal in the media to the amount of money put forward for appeals/rewards etc (obviously before the truth was revealed about Shannon Matthews)
Thanks I figure similar interests bring us here, if individuals want to look into things in more detail it's nice to share info and generate conversations, but also...Yay! 😂 Keep up the amazing work!
I usually have problems with RUclips's English auto-generated subtitles but for some reason I turned them on and nothing came up 💀💀💀 U gotta get subtitles for ur videos boo I'm too hearing impaired to hear everything that's being said in the clips 😫
I subtitle videos a lot, because I've got avg hearing and know the importance of them. Like for me subtitles are so helpful for me to actually pay attention to and understand videos. But good lord would one of her shorter vids even take a while.
To people asking for subtitles, if Eleanor is fine with it I'm willing to subtitle videos free of cost. I'm an American Sign Language student so i understand the importance of subtitles. Even if you want me to type them in the comments. Just let me know guys
@@blakeio3318 that's very kind. I study sign language because my grandma is deaf. It hurts her feelings very much not to be able to join in conversations so I interpret for her . How is being a sign language student
It feels like literally a couple of years ago since I remember seeing Shannon’s face everywhere and being so worried about this little girl and so shocked by the outcome. Now here sits a grown woman telling me she is the same age as Shannon! I really hope Shannon has had a better life and has been able to overcome her awful start in life.
This is one of my favorite cases, because it has a comparatively happy ending. It’s one of the extremely rare cases where a child goes missing for days and turns up alive.
Poor girl! It’s disgusting that this so called “mother” pretended her daughter was kidnapped in order to gain attention, money and fame! Ugh! Also amitriptyline, one of the drugs Shannon was given, is a nerve numbing anti-depressant that makes you so drowsy. I take it for a chronic pain I have. I can’t imagine how much this and the other drugs affected poor Shannon.
I think we as a society think mothers are way more kind and loving than they actually are. Like majority of kids are killed by their moms and a lot of kids suffer trauma from their mothers' abuse. Maybe it would be easier if we were to understand that not every mom has a close relationship to their kid no matter how she gave hearth to them. Like c'mon , so many kids have died just because we keep on thinking that mothers somehow can't be evil and vile creatures.
I actually think Karen wanted the money for her daughter, but when her friend told her theory of what she thought has happened, she decided to use it because it makes her look a little bit better
You are actually correct as she based the kidnapping on an episode of the uk shameless where Liam was kidnapped, this has been said in a documentary x
I think Karen saw Madeline Mcanns disappearance and thought "they are getting alot of fame, and stuff I want that" so she did this and he vitcim of her mind set was Shannon. It's so horrible that you would put your child through that. Karen even mentioned the Mcanns. They media are horrible and amazing when it comes to kidnapped storys. Craig didn't do anything to Shannon and they wanted it to seem like he did something. I'm not sure exactly, but he was innocent, well he didn't do anything to Shannon
I’m from dewsbury , a block away from moorside , I went to school with Shannon she was 3 years above me . Remember this like it was yesterday . Amazing video ❤️
People in the comments: tHe aCcEnTs I cAn’T uNdErStAnD Me, the daughter of a Sheffield lass: *My time has come* EDIT: This was not about Americans at all and I have reiterated this in the replies. I have a similar accent just not as strong and I have had people from all over the country tell me that I pronounce certain words ‘wrong’, let alone people from different countries. Please stop making me out to be hating on a specific nation just because you personally don’t agree with me.
I don't live a million miles away from the North of Yorkshire so I understand it all and I love Eleanor's accent. I'm more what people from Yorkshire may refer to as a Geordie but I'm not from Newcastle either lol xxxxx
Claudia Hayes I'm from Kent. I can understand all English, Scottish and Irish accents. I don't understand why so many Americans have trouble with them. I can also understand all American accents. I just feel that possibly many Americans are very insular, culturally ignorant because they never leave their own country. It's quite sad. I re,ember a journalist going to America after the Iraq war started and America was bombing the drop out of it and killing innocent people. Many Americans were saying yeah bomb them! This journalist showed American people in the street a world map and they couldn't even pick out Iraq on the map, and pointed to places like Australia and Spain. That terrifies me. How is it even possible? Scary...
the mccanns anger me so much because they basically abandoned all of their children in a hotel room and nothing happened to them but recently a woman in london left her son, the same age as maddie, in their car on their driveway to check the door was locked but she had a dodgy hand breaker which resulted in her son rolling into a lake and dying. she’d literally just been to check the lock on the door and she got charged with neglect. it genuinely gets me so het up smh
I grew up on the next estate down the hill, and honestly while I don’t know anyone directly involved in the case I do know some of Donavons estranged family. He was never a nice person. There’s a reason he changed his name by deedpoll and while I don’t know the full story I know enough to never let him near children.
Cant believe this case is 11 years old, Shannon must be nearly 20 now! Time has flown by so quick. But I know why Karen done it, because of the Madeleine McCann case, and she wanted to be like them.
Lisa Henry I was 5 at the time, but the Madeline McCann case was so popular and famous, i think that is why the mother tried to see what she could get from it like money, donations etc
@@astonw8852 that was something my mum pointed out when it was mentioned that she bought a shopping trolley full of alcohol and it's why, whenever I've heard the Madeline case mentioned, I thought about this one as well. These two cases are news stories I remember most from my childhood.
@@user-uf9jx6mv6u idk but like I was raised by my grandparents and have 12 uncles and aunties. Sometimes she calls at least three of my aunties name before getting to mine. Its a thing among parents of many kids and also I think her thought process was "we are talking about Shannon and this dude is asking how many kids I have, he already knows about Shannon so I'll mention the other 6"
I was a student in Dewsbury, living round the corner from the college. I moved home a few years before this, but I had totally forgotten about this little girl. I hope she's okay... Really enjoying your storytelling :)
I have watched so many English, Australian, and other countries/continents like missing people or murder cases that I could name almost all emergency numbers from different places.
I followed the McCanns case and the family were heavily scrutinized, especially her mother and suspected of killing Madeline so I don’t believe they were treated better than Shannon’s family. It’s genuinely scary to imagine what Shannon went through and must be going through ever since she was finally rescued, my heart truly breaks for that poor innocent girl.
Can not stop watching your videos I’m interested in the topic of murder cases and I never knew where to watch about them but then I found your little gem of a channel, love it keep up the hard work !!! ❤️
It infuriates me as a British girl that isn't the highest class however remember the mccan case massively from when I was a little girl I never heard of poor Shannon. It's like Oliver and it angers me that class made people judge others. For god sake Madeline was a massive hoax by the parents but Shannon was a pure horrid case and yet the richer parents got all the funding smh.
Lexi Greenwood remember tho shannon was only missing for less than a month, Madeleine McCann has been missing for 11 year. Everyone I know has heard of this case, it was literally national news. It’s not that the case was ignored by the media, it’s the portrayal of them that was the issue
Madeline dissapeared on vacation away from home so it was international news. Everyone I know instantly thought parents were guilty, I hardly think they got some special treatment because of class. Sad reality MOST missing kids are not news worthy for longer than a few days outside their immediate community.
This was really well put together.. I was hooked the whole time. I remember this happening. I think I was 19 at the time. Such a crazy world we live in. At least it was a safe ending for her.
when they saw what shannon wrote above her bed why didn’t they immediately check with/try to contact the dad
Her mom might not have wanted to speak to him. I can't tell you why- there are many possibilities.
I THOUGHT THE SAME THING

Wait huh?
I haven't even gotten halfway in what happened?
When i was 3, I went missing for an hour or two
Apparently my mother was frantic, she had the next door neighbour's looking all around the estate, she was cycling around the entire estate while she had my brother and sister with another neighbour.
She was frantic but determined. Turns out I had fallen asleep in the cupboard under the stairs as it was warm but that reaction compared to this mother's... Complete opposite ends of the spectrum. I hope Shannon is doing well now
I went missing once for a few hours too lol. I think I was three also, my parents has my uncle over and they were talking to him and I was trying to get my mom's attention because I wanted to play hide and seek. They didn't hear me but I apparently didn't notice and went to hide. My parents searched all over the house, the entire neighborhood, they called my uncle to ask if I got in the back of his truck and nobody noticed, and they were calling neighbors since I had friends next door that I'd play with sometimes. They couldn't find me at all. My dad insisted on checking all of the hiding places in the house over again and this time they went into my room and checked under the bed and saw nothing but extra blankets and stuffed animals that I had stuffed under there. Apparently I'd fallen asleep and tried to roll over because they saw movement and that was the only reason they found me. My mom was crying and was panicking and my dad was super worried and had been trying to keep it together for my mom but he kinda broke down when they found me. My mom said that she was so mad and happy at the same time when they finally found me lol
I used too just walk down to my aunties house so the round-up near in mind I lived in this same estate and my mum and dad were involved in the whole thing
Also I knew Shannon personally and my dad found photos of us with her but sadly, since she was found we don't know how she is doing
This happened to my sister when she was young. She thought they were playing hide and seek and was hiding under the blankets
Had you just heard about Harry Potter by chance? Lol
karen literally couldve just told her boyfriend that shannon went to a friend’s house to study or stayed after school with a teacher for extra help. but she decided to waste $3million of taxpayers’ money just so she didnt have to tell her boyfriend that she was leaving him..... how insane
Shes just dumb lmao
well its mentioned multiple times in the video that shes got learning disabilities and shes really easily swayed like a child and shes not very smart so
She had also seen how much money and attention the parents of Madeleine McCann got and wanted the same. She copied some of the things that Madeleine’s mum did, but she wasn’t prepared for the classism of the British media.

To people asking for subtitles, if Eleanor is fine with it I'm willing to subtitle videos free of cost. I'm an American Sign Language student so i understand the importance of subtitles. Even if you want me to type them in the comments. Just let me know guys
Blake Io that would be nice
That's really sweet of you to offer. I know on some channels there is an option to let subscribers contribute to adding subtitles
Blake Io most of the time it’s RUclips that needs to do it or aurthrize it
wow!! i'm HoH and this would help greatly!! thank you so much!

i thought this video said it was 10 hours long and i still clicked on it ready to watch the whole thing and pull an all nighter because this channel is more important than school lets be real here
True tho

In 6 months ur not gonna be in School anymore
@@dogshitbb144 I can confirm that from the future...

i cant believe they found her. im so happy that shes alive and i hope that the drugs didnt hurt her in the long run. It was a long time ago, and i hope that shes ok now. but the fact that donnovan and karen hurt her like this and served so little time is outrageous.
Spoiler Alert!
Then don't read the comments...obviously people are going to comment on the case after they watch it and give their opinions.
@Still Sidda I hate that people are dumb enough read the comments before watching the entire video & then complain about it uWu. The comment section is literally there to discuss about the said video
This literally popped up right under the video when I clicked on it so people saying don’t read the comments, I didn’t intend to.

Girl please move soon because a lot of these crimes happened near your home and im scared for your safety lol.
It's a couple of miles from where I live and it's safer than a lot of places!
Thing is with England, 10 minutes down the road it can be very rough and dangerous, but where you are it can be so much better..
Femi Norine in the most of UK you have estates, normally these estates will have a ‘druggie’ road I suppose but you could literally be on like 2 or 3 streets away and be on honestly one of the safest streets xD

It's crazy to think how Shannon is in her early 20s now. I hope she's okay.
Me too. The court revealed that she suffered nightmares after her kidnapping. I hope she's found peace.
AemiliaJacobus yup. i wish her the best and hope all her dreams are peaceful now
She and her siblings have life long anonymity.

I hope she and her siblings were taken away from that house of horrors. Poor kids. Useless CPS
This is quite a small thing, but the little disclaimers you do at the beginning of these videos is really nice, and proves the amount of respect you have for the people involved. A good friend of mine lost a close family member to a violent crime and the way some people were so rude, nosy and disrespectful about it really annoyed me. The amount of respect you show really means a lot, and you seem to a be a very lovely, intelligent person. Keep up the good work!
I will remember this comment forever
I am really sorry about that
God bless you and your family!❤️
And she has continued to be respectful and lovely to this day. ❤
Anyone else put Eleanor's videos on when they need to sleep? Her voice is just so calming...
I literally just commented on another post that I've accidentally fallen into a nap a time or two 🤣
That's true, but kinda sad cuz it's true crime... which hurt lots of people.... and you listen to it to relax....
Literally what I'm doing right now
It's like a big sister telling you a story
I usually fold A LOT of laundry, clean both bathrooms, and wash dishes while listening because some how I get it done faster 😂! I litterly can’t fold clothes unless I hear her in the background 😂. I’ve gotten it down to a science now. I’ll pick a video according to how long my task may take 😂!
"Pay real close attention to what they're saying in the next clip"
*Doesnt understand a word*
👌
I’m like “Subtitles, please!”.
Basically what I understand is that brothers were talking about pedos being homed in an estate of their own or and island. While they are talking about this and about how it should be surrounded with electric fences etc. The mum and step dad are sat on the couch quietly not saying a word just looking sheepish.
Me tease
I was thinking about grilled cheese 😂😂😂
Bruh. I’m 20 and if my mom can’t find me in 10 minutes she goes mad lmaoo. What a contrast
Same
Lol I once got yelled at for walking home with my friend and taking extra time to walk her home bc then she didn’t feel safe
I’m in my mid 30s, married with children and my mom still goes mad when she doesn’t hear from me or the kids in more than a week 😅
I don't think 20-year-olds say bruh.
I'm almost 30 and live in a different country. If I don't call her for long enough (depending on her mood, this can be just days). "Where you go?" "You die?" "You don't love your mother" "I die now,no one loves me". My mother is a queen of drama queens. I'm also not an only child, there are 2 more of us she does this to. Love ya mum.
it annoys me that i've literally never heard of this case, but i still hear about the McCann family everyday on the news - thank you for bringing this case to people's attention!
andlietamour because Madeline hasn’t been found after 11 YEARS.... 🤦🏻♀️
when this happened it was all over the news, i think they even made a tv show about it at one point... its pretty famous but why would it need to be brougt to attention still when its solved lol
Well, because this case was solved and the McCann case hasn’t been? Duh? There isn’t a segment on the news for remembering old, long solved crimes.
@@laurenc9458 Yea, but this case is just as crazy because of what happened.
JayJay Prey actually there is not enough evidence against the McCann’s and the dogs was not at all a good enough lead Madeline was most likely not found because the police down there was not stopping allot of cars and was mostly looking to find evidence against the McCann’s instead of looking for the person who might have taken her or looking around thinking she got lost so their city wouldn’t get a bad rep
If the parents did it I think she would already have been found since they where only looking at the parents and they got blamed a lot check your facts and don’t blame someone without good evidence innocent until proven guilty but I do get where you are coming for at first I thought they where guilty to until I looked into the case
when she went for fish and chips for everyone..... 6 children included, the owner said they could have it on the house. Karen commented to her friend....” Oh, I should have my kids go missing more often!!!”
No, I have an 8 year old daughter and a 2 year old son and there would be no laughing, or dancing if anything happened to them. I would probably have to be hospitalized. It's not normal and it's extremely troubling.
The fact that they were doing that is sick
I mean i get your point but i feel like if i was in her situation, I wouldn’t want my other kids to see my upset or anything as they are already going through a lot and i wouldn’t want them to make them go through that so i may be sad alone but not in front of them. But i do completely agree with you
I really thought she was saying "sidekick" instead of "psychic" and I was soooo confused
oh my god i just realized she didn’t say sidekick lmao
Me too, until I read this comment😂
I thought the same thing the first time she said it and then I realized that she said psychic by the second time she said it and it made so much more sense! 😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Wait she isn't saying sidekick?
I was at secondary school when Shannon went missing, one morning my friend came to the bus stop saying "I had a well strange dream last night, I dreamt shannon was found under a mattress!" we all sort of laughed it off as her being weird tbh, the next day Shannon was found - in the base of a divan! To this day I find that such a crazy coincidence!
Vicky R ask her the lottery numbers .
That is crazy
Your friend had a premonition ö
Dulcinea Del Toboso 😂😂😂good idea
Sometimes dreams come true for some people mine does sometimes
watching all these abduction cases makes me understand why my mum was so crazy overprotective. if i was even a minute late or if i didnt text her every hour when i was out with friends she got anxious and i thought it was weird, but now (as a 20 year old with anxiety myself) i can understand - a missing child is the worst thing that could happen to a parent
I am the same way with my children. You honestly don't know real FEAR, until you think one of your children is missing. Good on your mom!!!
This case annoys me so much. Myself and my mum, were some of the ones out searching for Shannon, as we lived in Mirfield and it's only a few miles away, for it all to be a sham. And what also made me furious was that Karen and her friends were in Asda and the manager gave them £100's of pounds worth of free shopping, as they felt bad for her. She sponged off pretty much anyone that was willing to help her.
@@mattieire I'm really sorry *allowed

Also, it's my mum and I 🙄
after 48 hours there is about a 6.25% chance to find the child alive again
😣😢😭😖😫😤😠😩🥺😡🤬😥😓😧
After 3 weeks is probably a 0.00000000000000000001
I know of people who were missing for 15 years
Eleanor said that after each six hours a person is missing, the chances of finding them halves. So after 48 hours it would be about a 0.4% chance they could be found
think about madaline mccan....there’s barely any chance for her to be found alive 💔
Shannon was drugged, abducted, heavily hidden for 3 weeks, rejected by her mother, then sent to foster care and suffered nightmares, this poor poor girl had such a rough time, and all because her mom didn't wanna be truthful with her significant other

The whole "poverty porn" thing is so fucked up to me, as an American. Like, I know how bad we are when it comes to social class, but I couldn't imagine gawking at them, especially how so many of us are on the brink at any time.
I mean, I think some reality programming in the US is along similar lines- it just tends toward a focus on mental (and occasionally physical) illness that coexists with poverty. Like a lot of TLC's my strange addiction, my 600 pound life, hoarders style programming. Doesn't make it any less surreal when you watch a bunch of social issues documentaries and RUclips recommends you toward poverty porn stuff though! Like... this is literally someone going to the grocery store... this is a bunch of kids trying to get ready for school in a small home, obviously it's noisy/messy...
@Still Sidda That was my point. They fill a similar niche, just taking advantage of odd lifestyles (at best) or mental illness (at worst) instead of poverty

I don’t like the negativity around benefits. My mum claims them and she’s NOT allowed to work because she’s not well mentally. She struggles with day to day life but she still tries her best to keep us happy and healthy. It’s not fair with the stigma around benefits. It’s really annoying and upsetting. We’re not bad people because we live on benefits and it’s not out fault to be honest... Especially when you don’t know about people’s situations.
Just An Average Girl yea my mom and I are on benefits
I’d just like to put a quick reminder that only 0.5% of the tax going off your wage goes to people with benefits.
It's viewed the same way, if not worse, in the US. I'm a single mom (we don't get single parent benefits, just child support sometimes, that barely covers anything) and I work full time (making twice the minimum wage) and go to college full time, and I get benefits for food. I've gotten so many dirty looks because I'm tattooed (before my daughter and before I was a single parent) when I use my food card in stores...
@@flappysmallfish7497 still 0.5% of somebody's hard earned wage.
@@AlteredAlice Absolutely agree. Benefits are fine but not when you're capable of the full time job.
A lot of these attitudes are the same in the USA. A welfare kid goes missing and it's blamed on the parents, but a upper-midle class child goes missing and it's the next greatest tragedy.
Should be equal. The children are the victims.
Probably because there is a higher chance that the parents have something to do with it in a welfare family. Just how it is statistically
Yeah. It's incredibly sad and unfair.
Vincent Wise The McCanns got slaughtered and still do. This sympathy people talk about is a fallacy. And seriously how do you compare a child missing for less than a month with one that has been missing over 12 years?
Kristina Winter they killed Maddie
4/5 months for child pornography?
I'm not an expert but that seems light
They probably had a hell of a lawyer.
This just tild me what happened lol I shouldnt be looking at the comments😂🤣🤣😂😂
It depends on the content. Child porn chargers vary heavily. The amount and also it has a category from like 16 years old like scantly dressed to young children doing disgusting acts. So his sentence would be based on those factors it’s not a one sentence fits all situation
Its infuriating how sexual crimes against kids can be haggle down and made not a big deal, even though child porn and other acts like it like being a peeping tom lead dire directly to more severe abuse against more innocent kids!
It's England we have a crappie justice system ⚖️😒😒
1:00:17 As a former drug addict who used to primarily abuse downer pills (opiates, benzos, allergy meds, etc) I can confirm that *this kid was higher than me and I'm shocked that she didn't OD and die*

Can you cover Hayley Dodd? She went missing in 1999 at age 17. I know of her family and a man was charged this year with her murder but will not say where her body is so a law has been passed 'No Body, No Parole' also known as 'Hayley's Law'. There's loads of information on it, including the man convicted being linked to other crimes.
missing kids rescued kids just posted a video!!!!
Alejandra Ramirez It needs to be covered more. It's a devastating case and I see almost no true crime RUclipsrs talking about it.

When you said this case was treated completely different to the McCann case I was expecting the police to be shit but the detectives media and community input is so well

The Portuguese police were shit in the McCann case.
@@catsymeow4411 watch the netflix documentary on it, people talk a lot of shit about the portuguese police involved in the mccann case but more than 90 percent of the times a child goes missing the parents or close family had something to do with it and shannon's case is another example, the media was just mad that someone was investigating the perfect couple and the perfect doctor parents when in reality they still are majorly at fault for drugging their daughter to be asleep all night otherwise she could've at least had the oportunity to call for help when she was taken or the other children who were also drugged could've noticed the girl missing much sooner and go to call for help

People who use benefits to help feed, house, or medicate their families already get looked at as if they're all lazy and worthless. Most of them work & some work multiple jobs, yet it's still not enough & they just need some help. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that. It's people like Karen, who purposely pop out tons of kids & refuse to work, just to get benefits, that reenforce the poor view people have of those on benefits.
If you cannot afford kids then do not have them. It is not my responsibility to pay for someone else's kids!
@@dougtaylor2803 I don't have children but your comment isn't neccessarily fair or correct. Circumstances can change beyond somebody's control. Just because you can afford children now doesn't mean 5 or 10 years down the line you will. There are many reasons why somebody may need to be on benefits; illness, relationship breakdown, redundancy just to name a few.

I work 36 hours a week and am a convicted felon so I can only find a job that I make 9 dollars an hour at and my husband has a trade of welding and he still only makes 15 dollars an hour and we still can't get a single penny of food stamps for a little help to feed my daughter and husband. I've always worked and so has he. The only people they will give food stamps to in Tennessee is people who DON'T WORK AT ALL and most of them never have. So no not most people that draws any kind of benefits are working people. At least not in Tennessee. A lot of people who draw checks here have never worked and never will, whether there's anything disabling them are not. It's us taxpayers who can't get any help.

Thank you so much for speaking out against poverty porn and classism!!!
Why I can't watch Jeremy Kyle any more, it's middle/upper class TV staff making fun of working class and impoverished families with various genuine problems for profit.
I hate the stigma around council estates 😒 I grew up in an awful area with a bad reputation and I'm (hopefully) planning on studying English Literature at university. People assume that people on benefits are dumb and lazy and it honestly pisses me off. They are some of the best communities; like a big family! As this shows!
That's amazing!
Good luck! :)

They don't do enough at all to help people in bad situations. But then you hear of them taking children away from their parents over the smallest thing.
Social workers get a bad reputation but in so many cases their hands are tied by state laws in the US. I wanted to be a social worker until I met one and talked to her about all of the crap she had to deal with and how she could do nothing about it. I was told than that they are in a no win situation almost all of time. It wasn't something I could try to fix as a social worker since they get no say about it. It all comes down to politicians...
Yup!. It seems they’ll keep kids who are in danger, in the place where they are in danger and the parents who just need help and love their kids, they’ll take them away!. The good ones don’t last long but the nasty ones always do!
Her friend talking about going with her dad on the searches broke my heart. That's got to be so difficult, when you're that young, and you're dealing with something so awful.
In the judge’s name “Justice” is just an honorific, like a title. They use it instead of their real first names to protect their identity.
@Joy Jones they are judges but we don’t call them “Judge Smith” instead it’s “Mr. Justice Smith”. Judge is their job title.
I thought it would be a black judge since a lot of sub saharan Africans call their children justice lol
Kinda like how strippers use different names to protect their identities?
I hope this isn’t insulting to judges-

K S. Oh, and be mindful of the fact that she has many troll accts, Twitter, etc. Shes been busted a few times! It was hilarious when her IP was traced back on The Dirty.com when she called kristen kaye a fat ass & critisized her for being "just a cashier". She also critisized her husband for being black. GEE, I wonder how channon Rose & Brye Ashley win a defamation/harrassment case against her👮wonder why she removed her Fit Box video? And the video about her dog getting bit. Wonder why she removed "suicide survivor" from her Banner/About page? Hmmmm consistently inconsistent, or just a liar😁👁now shes a "mum" to honey bunny...girl is from Arizona! Run for the hills Eleanor!!!
Brook Lily where can I look up this info? :)
Growing up on a council estate, we also grew up around A LOT of pedos, every time one was moved onto the street any houses with small children would have to be informed, and it happened alarmingly frequently. We moved in the end thank god but it just blows my mind that they always end up housing them on these low income neighbourhoods where most of the kids are high risk...
They need pedo & sex offenders village or something where they cant live anywhere near children and be under watch bcs these people hardly ever stop doing it again and their action against the survivors never fully heal
@@IraQxNajafiaThat's a thing in Florida, but they aren't being monitored so it's a pedo paradise according to them. Not sure if everyone there has reoffended, but as you said it's sadly common.
When you said she was found well and alive I was like thank god!

I hate all the sympathy and help the McCanns got. They left their small children alone in a hotel room while they went out. If they hadn't been so reckless she never would have been taken.
Nevertheless nobody deserves that to happen.
Looooool her parents killed her Idc they did
max sanderson I believe the point she’s making is, the McCanns got sympathy based solely on their social status and professional titles. What they did was just as bad as this yet they were afforded sympathy, empathy and millions of pounds to search for their daughter who is missing due to their own ineptitude and lack of proper care for her wellbeing. As opposed to the blame being immediately laid upon Karen Matthews and rightly so, however totally diametric responses.
@@resilienceofagypsy3998 I don't care they still get sympathy from me because losing a child's far too much punishment already without persecution.
It's interesting that she mentioned how the McCanns got treated so differently because I didn't see that. I've only recently heard of Madeline's story through these types of videos and every single comment mentions the parent's part in whole thing. I don't know anyone that believes they didn't have a part in it. This couple (Karen and Craig) got hounded by a trashy newspaper, but they were right. Hhhhmmm.
Council house..equals section 8 housing in the US👍 That “poverty porn” thing is disgusting and inhumane. And I thought the US was gross about reality tv.
Wow I have never seen something like this
@@maisieanne1515 I grew up homeless in San deigo, without my parents really around, section 8 helped alot of homeless elderly and kids on SSDI off the streets, it doesn't solve the housing crisis but section 8 housing basically keeps disabled, vulnerable, marginalized or people who struggle with mental health from starving on the streets. I know you gotta qualify for it somehow though, I wouldn't know because I had a temporary guardian as a kid do it for me.
well i mean, thats what happens when your country is 1000+ years old, the class system has been engrained into our culture and society for a VERY long time
sounds like you're saying "side-kick" haha..then after using my deductive thinkng i realized that you said "psychic"
Lmao u heard the same 😂
Same😂
Terry Johnson-Same
I heard, "side-kick" and I was so confused but then I realized she said, "psychic"
Terry Johnson Every time she says ‘case’ I hear ‘kiss’ for a second before I register the word properly based on common sense 😂 I LOVE her beautiful accent though.
Every time she said “psychic” I thought she was saying SIDE KICK and I was like... Who’s sidekick?? And why do you dislike them so much???
😃
*me to lol*
tbf it’s a drink here that is disgusting so it still makes sense
YESSS an hour long video from my favourite RUclipsr 😍💕
The thing that made me question Karen is the fact that she wasn't even out trying to look for shannon. If that was my kid I would be looking day and night
There's a really good book called 'Chavs' the demonisation of the working class that makes very interesting comparisons on the Shannon Matthews/Madeleine McCann cases from media coverage/portrayal in the media to the amount of money put forward for appeals/rewards etc (obviously before the truth was revealed about Shannon Matthews)
You're one of the few actually commenting on the video, not just saying "yayy an hour of my fave RUclipsr!!"
Thanks I figure similar interests bring us here, if individuals want to look into things in more detail it's nice to share info and generate conversations, but also...Yay! 😂 Keep up the amazing work!

I usually have problems with RUclips's English auto-generated subtitles but for some reason I turned them on and nothing came up 💀💀💀
U gotta get subtitles for ur videos boo I'm too hearing impaired to hear everything that's being said in the clips 😫
I subtitle videos a lot, because I've got avg hearing and know the importance of them. Like for me subtitles are so helpful for me to actually pay attention to and understand videos. But good lord would one of her shorter vids even take a while.
To people asking for subtitles, if Eleanor is fine with it I'm willing to subtitle videos free of cost. I'm an American Sign Language student so i understand the importance of subtitles. Even if you want me to type them in the comments. Just let me know guys
Subtitles are working for me
There are subtitles now :)
@@blakeio3318 that's very kind. I study sign language because my grandma is deaf. It hurts her feelings very much not to be able to join in conversations so I interpret for her . How is being a sign language student
It feels like literally a couple of years ago since I remember seeing Shannon’s face everywhere and being so worried about this little girl and so shocked by the outcome. Now here sits a grown woman telling me she is the same age as Shannon! I really hope Shannon has had a better life and has been able to overcome her awful start in life.
This is one of my favorite cases, because it has a comparatively happy ending. It’s one of the extremely rare cases where a child goes missing for days and turns up alive.
Poor girl! It’s disgusting that this so called “mother” pretended her daughter was kidnapped in order to gain attention, money and fame! Ugh! Also amitriptyline, one of the drugs Shannon was given, is a nerve numbing anti-depressant that makes you so drowsy. I take it for a chronic pain I have. I can’t imagine how much this and the other drugs affected poor Shannon.
I think we as a society think mothers are way more kind and loving than they actually are. Like majority of kids are killed by their moms and a lot of kids suffer trauma from their mothers' abuse. Maybe it would be easier if we were to understand that not every mom has a close relationship to their kid no matter how she gave hearth to them. Like c'mon , so many kids have died just because we keep on thinking that mothers somehow can't be evil and vile creatures.
The trip.... Made me hallucinate... I can only imagine what it would do to a 9 yo . shame on her
I take amitriptyline too, and tramadol.
I actually think Karen wanted the money for her daughter, but when her friend told her theory of what she thought has happened, she decided to use it because it makes her look a little bit better
Aniko Varga she didn't give a shit about any of those 7 kids, the money was for herself
You are actually correct as she based the kidnapping on an episode of the uk shameless where Liam was kidnapped, this has been said in a documentary x
@@ehpkrp ive only seen the american shameless, its some good shit
I think Karen saw Madeline Mcanns disappearance and thought "they are getting alot of fame, and stuff I want that" so she did this and he vitcim of her mind set was Shannon. It's so horrible that you would put your child through that. Karen even mentioned the Mcanns. They media are horrible and amazing when it comes to kidnapped storys. Craig didn't do anything to Shannon and they wanted it to seem like he did something. I'm not sure exactly, but he was innocent, well he didn't do anything to Shannon
I’m from dewsbury , a block away from moorside , I went to school with Shannon she was 3 years above me . Remember this like it was yesterday . Amazing video ❤️
Holly Loftus I lived on the moorside at the time. I was only about six but remember some of it

EDIT: This was not about Americans at all and I have reiterated this in the replies. I have a similar accent just not as strong and I have had people from all over the country tell me that I pronounce certain words ‘wrong’, let alone people from different countries. Please stop making me out to be hating on a specific nation just because you personally don’t agree with me.
I don't live a million miles away from the North of Yorkshire so I understand it all and I love Eleanor's accent. I'm more what people from Yorkshire may refer to as a Geordie but I'm not from Newcastle either lol xxxxx
West Yorkshire lass, born and raised! (although now at uni in South Yorkshire)
Claudia Hayes I'm from Kent. I can understand all English, Scottish and Irish accents. I don't understand why so many Americans have trouble with them. I can also understand all American accents. I just feel that possibly many Americans are very insular, culturally ignorant because they never leave their own country. It's quite sad. I re,ember a journalist going to America after the Iraq war started and America was bombing the drop out of it and killing innocent people. Many Americans were saying yeah bomb them! This journalist showed American people in the street a world map and they couldn't even pick out Iraq on the map, and pointed to places like Australia and Spain. That terrifies me. How is it even possible? Scary...
South Yorkshire born and raised! So can understand everything they say haha 😂
Another Sheffield lass born and raised in Stocksbridge 😂😂
the mccanns anger me so much because they basically abandoned all of their children in a hotel room and nothing happened to them but recently a woman in london left her son, the same age as maddie, in their car on their driveway to check the door was locked but she had a dodgy hand breaker which resulted in her son rolling into a lake and dying. she’d literally just been to check the lock on the door and she got charged with neglect. it genuinely gets me so het up smh
Emmy N that is so infuriating wtf
Emmy N then if the door wasn’t locked and he opened it while driving she would’ve got charged as well!!
I grew up on the next estate down the hill, and honestly while I don’t know anyone directly involved in the case I do know some of Donavons estranged family. He was never a nice person. There’s a reason he changed his name by deedpoll and while I don’t know the full story I know enough to never let him near children.
When the imposter is sus 🧑🦯🤨🤔🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪
@@hotdogprincess what?
Cant believe this case is 11 years old, Shannon must be nearly 20 now! Time has flown by so quick. But I know why Karen done it, because of the Madeleine McCann case, and she wanted to be like them.
I was 7 when this happened, it's crazy. And yeah, that's what me and my mum suspected when following the story on the news.
Lisa Henry I was 5 at the time, but the Madeline McCann case was so popular and famous, i think that is why the mother tried to see what she could get from it like money, donations etc
@@astonw8852 that was something my mum pointed out when it was mentioned that she bought a shopping trolley full of alcohol and it's why, whenever I've heard the Madeline case mentioned, I thought about this one as well. These two cases are news stories I remember most from my childhood.
i think the whole ‘i have 6 children’ when she really had 7 could’ve had something to do w her learning ability
I think its because at the point she didnt see shannon as her child anymore
Or her math ability
David M yeah but even so you wouldn’t forget how many kids you have would you? Idk :/
I think she miss understood the question to be “how many OTHER children do you have”
@@user-uf9jx6mv6u idk but like I was raised by my grandparents and have 12 uncles and aunties. Sometimes she calls at least three of my aunties name before getting to mine. Its a thing among parents of many kids and also I think her thought process was "we are talking about Shannon and this dude is asking how many kids I have, he already knows about Shannon so I'll mention the other 6"
45:08 “we were all absolutely over the moon” she says with a monotone voice and expressionless face
I was a student in Dewsbury, living round the corner from the college. I moved home a few years before this, but I had totally forgotten about this little girl. I hope she's okay... Really enjoying your storytelling :)

I followed the McCanns case and the family were heavily scrutinized, especially her mother and suspected of killing Madeline so I don’t believe they were treated better than Shannon’s family. It’s genuinely scary to imagine what Shannon went through and must be going through ever since she was finally rescued, my heart truly breaks for that poor innocent girl.
omg I've told sooooo many true crime youtubers to do this case and no one has. thankyou so much!
Can not stop watching your videos I’m interested in the topic of murder cases and I never knew where to watch about them but then I found your little gem of a channel, love it keep up the hard work !!! ❤️

It infuriates me as a British girl that isn't the highest class however remember the mccan case massively from when I was a little girl I never heard of poor Shannon. It's like Oliver and it angers me that class made people judge others. For god sake Madeline was a massive hoax by the parents but Shannon was a pure horrid case and yet the richer parents got all the funding smh.
Lexi Greenwood remember tho shannon was only missing for less than a month, Madeleine McCann has been missing for 11 year. Everyone I know has heard of this case, it was literally national news. It’s not that the case was ignored by the media, it’s the portrayal of them that was the issue
Madeline dissapeared on vacation away from home so it was international news. Everyone I know instantly thought parents were guilty, I hardly think they got some special treatment because of class. Sad reality MOST missing kids are not news worthy for longer than a few days outside their immediate community.
wait, madeline was a hoax?
M i n t y not officially but that what many brits believe, the case is still unsolved though
How was it a hoax? I've never heard that until this
This was really well put together.. I was hooked the whole time. I remember this happening. I think I was 19 at the time. Such a crazy world we live in. At least it was a safe ending for her.
