    Nothing gives me more chills than the Timothy Evans' detainment photograph. His face of fear in the midst of all pointing fingers accusing him. You can feel how afraid he is. And still the authorities are there, still, like a normal routine, arresting the "
    "culprit"

      I haven't watched the doc yet so they probably mention this but I know Timothy AND his wife were both intellectually disabled and had suffered their whole lives due to that. Being dirt poor AND disabled intellectually and then to also have this happen? I swear Hell is on Earth for some people. I can't imagine. Our ancestors were tough as nails. I imagine suicide rates would skyrocket if our current society was suddenly plunged into these living/social economic conditions.

      @Lady Jay Mac timothy Evans was an alcoholic who beat his wife. Since he initially told police he had given his wife a potion to cause an abortion and that had caused her to die, there seems to be a lot of missing info here on what really happened. As for your last point, the problems and social conditions our ancestors faced are carried over now. A lot of them were abused, abusive and violence was normal. That is, of course, very normal human conditioning, unfortunately.

  • @LauraOfTheValley
    @LauraOfTheValley 2 года назад +21

    What happened to Evans was definitely a miscarriage of justice due to gross discrimination.
    Someone's past mistakes and learning disabilities don't equal a murderer. Ironically, Christie had a relatively normal upbringing and was somewhat smart, especially for the time he grew up in.

    • @Janellabelle
      @Janellabelle 2 года назад

      I watch a lot of true crime, you probably do too since you are here, so I'm sure you've noticed this but I was just going to add that I think our society still puts a lot of innocent people with intellectual disabilities and past mistakes away to life sentences and to death row. I watched a documentary about a handful of death row inmates they were able to exonerate with modern DNA evidence. The lengths they have to go to not only obtain, but then present this evidence to the court and have a death row conviction overturned is extraordinarily complex almost designed to not let it happen, it seems like. The court doesn't want to ever admit a mistake was made. Our justice system cannot fail even once in their eyes. The Alford Plea is such a great illustration of that. A defendant pleading they're innocent but also having to admit the court has enough evidence to convict them so they must beg for mercy to be aquitted even though they are innocent...so bizarre. Like they cannot admit a mistake can be made. They act like they're omniscient, like a god or something. I can barely stand to think about all the innocent people caged and killed due to society's discrimination, still, today.

    • @potato6785
      @potato6785 2 года назад +5

      Evans couldn’t read; it’s believed his confession was led by the police officers, and the transcription - since he couldn’t read or right - was further edited to “correct” any mistakes from when Evans deviated from the details he had been fed by the police.
      The confession didn’t come from having read a letter from his mother; it came from intense interrogation from police who had convinced a simpleton that he had committed the murder despite having no real recollection.
      It was essentially “gaslighting” - they were so confident and insistent that he did it that, once he’d been worn down by the interrogation, he internalized what they told him and simply parroted back the details they’d provided him.

    I cannot believe this lie is being repeated still.
    Christie was NOT a doctor. He had served in St. John's Ambulance and probably had a rudimentary certificate for First Aid lasting a few weekends of his time. He had no idea how to perform an abortion and used it only as an entree to rape and murder desperate women. There is as much evidence of Ethel assisting him in his abortions as there is of his holding a medical degree. Which is to say none at all.
    That is a really despicable slight against her character, and she would be murdered at his hand.

      Co-defendants would be sitting at the same table as the primary defendant or held in jail if they were to be tried separately. I should think witnesses, once they've given their testimony, would be allowed to attend the rest of the trial as a regular audience member. Recall that John Christie wasn't a defendant during the first trial. Trying to (accurately) pin the murder on him was strictly a defense tactic.

    The eviction MORATORIUM crowd should all get voted out. They forced private citizens to pay rents for total strangers for 2 long years while they had to pay theirs also. The pains, the headaches that landlords have been going through are unfair. They did that just on the name of a mysterious disease that everyone had to go through.

    Why do so many documentaries feel the need to interject the story with 'dramatized scenes' which, like these here, are hopelessly inaccurate? This is a trend started a few years ago and it's very misleading. I gave this a thumbs down for that reason alone.
