Fanny Adams - Crime Files. Real life crime

- Опубликовано: 5 сен 2024
- Fanny Adams (30 April 1859 - 24 August 1867) was an eight-year-old English girl who was murdered by solicitor's clerk Frederick Baker in Alton, Hampshire, on 24 August 1867. The murder itself was extraordinarily brutal and caused a national outcry in the United Kingdom. Fanny was abducted by Baker and taken into a hop garden near her home, where she was brutally murdered and dismembered; some parts were never found. Further investigations suggested that two small knives were used for the murder, but it was later ruled they would have been insufficient to carry out the crime and that another weapon must have been used.

Now saying " sweet F A " seems so disrespectful to the poor girl, and this appalling crime, thank you Paul for educating me, 👍
Language evolves. Your right it was disrespectful but it's changed to mean sweet fxxx all
John connick.. Sweet f. a people now class it as a another saying. Which is vulgar so I won't go into in poor girl 8yrs old. Killed b4 her time barely started
I live there. The nice thing is whenever I walked pass Fanny's grave, there are always fresh flowers on it.
If you are visiting a grave, take flowers.
That's so lovely 💗
It's hard to even get my head around someone so evil, that poor little girl. I had no idea of the origins of this saying. Thanks for educating me.
Thank you for watching and for your comment. I agree I didn’t understand the origins of the saying until I did some research for the video. 🙏
It's a brilliant look into history
@@UnusualThings1 I want to thank you so much for letting us people know what happened to this little girl, 💔please keep the video's coming they are so interesting and it's good for us people to know what's behind the stories to the ones that has passed so big thank you.
@@martinestimpson5574 thank you for watching Martine and thank you for your comments.

It's such a shame that the neighbour didn't believe the children, it must have haunted her for the rest of her life.
There's a story up here in Sunderland about the Victoria Hall disaster where 183 children lost there lives and because of that awful event this is why we now have those push bars on emergency doors. I've been to the memorial a few times and have found a grave of one of the poor children in the cemetery next to me. Its an awful story but worth reading about as I think these poor kids should never be forgotten.
Despite being over 150 years ago, that is one of the most harrowing crimes I have heard. Unlikely the only crime he committed too. Poor wee Fanny Adams.
Yeah
Hi Paul I agree with how insulting it is to use the saying “ sweet Fanny Adams” in such an insulting way -Thank you for sharing and telling us this heartbreaking story - Sleep tight baby girl xx
I was literally shaking and felt nauseous at this barbaric crime against poor old Fanny, God Bless her and hope she's in a better place now. Thank you Paul for bringing this to light ,I certainly won't use this phrase again!
I was shocked when I found out the true meaning behind the saying, the story is really well told and given your own personal sensitive thoughts as usual. Great video Paul thank you.
I always wondered where the saying Fanny Adams came from. What an horrific loss of life for an eight year old child. Thank you Paul for another well put video and for your respect and senstivity.
I’ll never use that term ever ever again. I had no idea at all where the term came from. That poor child and that poor family must have gone through unspeakable hell.
Thank you for posting this Paul. I’ve learnt a lot today.
I remember learning about this horrific murder during one of my history lessons. quite shocking for that poor little girl. Still can't quite wrap my head around why such an atrocity happened. RIP Fanny. sweet child of God now x
Thank you for this and the respect you showed for the poor girl. Everyone should be reminded of the poor girl RIP.
Soul shattering. Thank you for Remembering Fanny. RIP Fanny. You will never be forgotten.
Who
@@sage6336 not clever, grow up
These are the people that we shouldn't forget about and I'm in agreement I will not use that expression again. Thank you for bringing us these fascinating stories.
Wow… Thank you for sharing this Paul .
I always remember the name Fanny Adams as a child, but tbh I didn’t have a clue why?
But what you have shared here is a real eye opener to what happened to this dear little girl.
So sick what that monster did to her, not just killing her, but what he did to her body, I struggle to get my head around it.
What a distrusting crime. What that child went through is unthinkable. RIP Fanny
Paul, Heartbreaking story! I salute you for the respectful presentation . Bob
Wow what a great insight into the history of her death I'm 43 years young and I didn't even know this happened to her. Bless her heart this is so sad.
Really sad😢
Probably the saddest and most horrifying story I've ever heard 😢 and I watch a lot of true crime 😔 💔 😢 how can you look at a small child and harm in any way 💔 😢
I hope her soul is at peace reunited with her loved ones. R.I.P

Just came across your page today , absolutely brilliant. I love what you do mate keep up the good work
Thanks and welcome
Although this a sad, maddening, heartbreaking story, it’s so interesting. Thank you.
It was just heartbreaking to listen to what the darling little girl went though. God bless her x😢💔.
Got to say you are doing a brilliant job thankyou for this story, so many people forget such people as Fanny god rest her.
What a poor sweet child! I am an American, so I am not familiar with this story or phrase. Thank you for uploading.
What other crimes was Baker guilty of, yet not discovered? Makes one wonder.
First time here, really enjoyed your style of storytelling, factual and set out in an easy way to understand, the story flows beautifully. Poor, sweet Fanny Adams.
So sad what happened to that poor girl, thank you so much for sharing this with us
I always knew about where the saying 'sweet f a' came from......but to watch this post.....and to see Fanny Adams resting place put a chill down my spine. I still say 'sweet F A' when i have nothing. It was a horrendous crime. Great video mate. R.I.P FANNY ADAMS😇😇😇😇
It was indeed John Lydon PIL that sang you could be right, you could be wrong! Great song, great man. Came across your channel today, am enjoying your work, thankyou
Wow, that is deep. God bless that little girl. Didn't realise the severity. Thanks Paul👍
Rest In Peace Fanny Adams. No one deserves that. Your videos are amazing. Thank you so much for sharing the stories of those that have now passed. I have never used the meaning sweet FA or sweet AF nor will I ever. If I hear the saying from someone I know I will show them this video. I also think it's disrespectful using that meaning. Thanks for sharing the story of Fanny Adams. 💜💙
How gruesome of a murder of a child.
I just found your channel. So a new sub. Thank you for bringing fanny Adams to light. Of course I heard the saying But never in my wildest dreams thought about were it came from Just so heart reaching. It’s just unforgivable what happened to that innocent child. Just heartbreaking
Thank you for watching and yes it is really sad isn’t it. 🙏
Oh Paul how sad - thank you for sharing this - heartbreaking x
Great story. It always amazes me what the back story is for some of our well known and everyday sayings. Thank you for your sympathetic telling of this little girl's tragic end.❤
So many of these phrases probably have dark origins . Such a sad story and unimaginable cruelty .
Stumbled on your channel by accident and really enjoying the very interesting content
I have never used that saying, and now that I know where it came from I never will. Such a sad story, that poor little girl. This was very moving. Thank you for your efforts and for being so respectful in the way you presented it.
Hi paul another sad story thanks for sharing.
That was certainly a very powerful start to your Crime Files. I'm not at all an emotional person but I have tears in my eyes as I type. I've never heard of this story before and it tears at the heartstrings. I can't imagine what would make a human being turn into a monster to carry out something so unspeakable. It does sound like, from the way the journal entry was written, that this wasn't his first murder. I have great faith that dear Fanny is in a much better place where she can always be safe. Although I haven't heard of the original saying that includes her name, it does give new meaning to a term we're all familiar with - sweet f*** all. I'll be making a conscious effort now to never repeat that term. You're off to a great start! Kris.🇦🇺🕊
Hi, thank you for your comments and for watching. Yes it’s a very powerful and sad story, and I hate to think what that poor girl went through and her family. 🙏
I love your crime files keep them going

Thats so interesting... thanks for sharing. Barbaric people in the old days too .. what a horrid death for Fanny. RIP .
Thanks Paul, for shedding light on that saying, I didn't know, I definitely won't be saying it anymore.
I was late in reading this. Never used the expression 'Sweet Fanny Adams' and certainly won't now. One of the worst things I've ever heard, but thanks for the sensitive way you told it.
Never heard about this story! Loving your videos!
I've known about the story of Fanny Adams for a few years but didn't know the details of what happened to her body. The thought of her little hand still clutching the coins made me cry. RIP Fanny ❤
Thank you for educating me,never knew where the saying came from.
Thank you for sharing this that poor little girl rip Little one.
Thank you Paul x
A education for sure and very respectfully presented
Every one of your videos are so brilliant…thanks
So nice of you
I used to live in Alton and a friend of my Hubby and mine wrote a book about 'Fanny Adams'. Bless her. His name is Peter Cansfield but sadly he has passed away now.
So sensitively done Paul god bless
Hi Paul, How very sad it brings me to tears. 😢 I’ll never use that phrase again.
I remember when growing up in London in the 40's,50's and 60's this phrase 'Sweet Fanny Adams' was used by adults now and again. I was told that it ment 'beware' in relation to sticking with my older sister or with my friends when playing outside, or you could end up like 'Sweet Fanny Adams' and become nothing left of you ! So I have never found it derogatory in any way. I realise nowadays the it is referred to as 'F..k all' but originalky it was for safety of children, sadly learned the hard way. Thank you for this ine 💕🇦🇺
that is the best video you have put on here so far keep up the good work and thank you
You add a real touch of history to your videos . Its very enlightening .
OMG!! ... That's the first time I've ever heard that story about that poor little girl, .... Thank you for doing this one, was real educational 10/10!!
Great video Paul. Keep them coming please
