so dignified so genuine . a real man. sensitive but strong. i hope he knows how much support he commands . you are a gentleman and you were denied justice. i feel real love for you x
Im a nanna to Sophia & of course SO MUCH goes without saying. This has been on my mind & has upset me very much.I can only think of how he feels & will always feel.If he'd like a friend I'd like to be his friend. I hope he has lots of family & friends & isn't going through this alone.
@MtaForReal ..Ellies father beat her when she was a baby..found guilty then let out after an appeal. Her nan and grandad brough Ellie up but the court snatched Ellie out of her loving grandparents arms and gave her back to the parents..Ellie was beaten to death by her father..Justice Hogg needs to be in prison with the parents..May sweetheart Ellie rest in peace in her nan's arms.🙏🕊
This man has a beautiful soul and deserves all the happiness in the world. He’s just incredible. So strong, intelligent, articulate and graceful. His wife - also a diamond x
Victoria Derbyshire is quite well known for being a feminist sympathizer, so she is bound to try and make it out as though his former daughter is given as little responsibility for what happened as possible. God bless you Neal, everything you said here and in the documentary (Britain's Darkest Taboos) is absolutely correct.
This bloke lost £80,000 trying to keep this little girl safe in society on legal costs ,the system let him down and should pay . Someone needs to set up a go fund me for this guy , I know money won't solve the past problems but what a disgrace.
I am a granddad and I am hurting for him. No one knows what they would do in a similar situation. But my heart goes out to this poor unfortunate man who has been and Ellie, been totally let down by our wonderful system. There needs to be a total overt transparent independent investigation into this and then litigation must follow later and the so called authorities be brought to account and if necessary go to prison........
It wasn't their fault. They were brought into it not knowing what we know. The fault lies with the judge. No child regardless of abuse should be sent back to her parents after 5 years apart.
I've just watched this on the crime investigation channel and is so heart breaking .. that judge that taken happy ellie away from her loving devoted grandparents is not fit to do her job ..such lovely people Neal and his wife
so heartbreaking 😭😭 I'm happy she spent 5 years of her life with people who loved her to bits god bless you all keep strong I'm sure there looking down on you xxx
This is absolutely heartbreaking. That poor wee girl. At least she is safe now and reunited with her lovely nana. I can't even imagine the pain in this poor man's heart
God bless this poor man, I hope he sues that pathetic judge, and the justice system. If there was ever a case of a miscarriage of justice, this has to be it. He's lost his granddaughter, and he's lost his wife, all because of his own daughter and that evil scumbag. I hope they both suffer a world of pain in prison.
The Judge should never have another nights sleep or know another peaceful day. She has blood on her hands. My thoughts are with this little girl's grandparents. X
The private social services who allowed this may have the same mentality as the this child's killers. I believe they wanted the child to suffer for some sadistic reason. How hard is it to figure out that someone who attacked a 7 week baby would never change?
This grandfather is such a lovely man I’m so glad his traitor of a daughter and that evil Ben will hopefully never come out of prison… ever thankfully finally
Bless his heart. Prayers for him to find peace and comfort in his life. And that evil man gets his while he's in jail. Before he goes to hell for eternity.
Heartwrenching for the grandparents; the courts should have given full custody to them after her father was charged the first time, what a joke our judiciary system is! We need to reinstate the death penalty for monsters like himself and his partner; this sentence was an insult to Ellie and the grandparents who loved her so
This man is a true hero. He should be proud of himself for what he did for Ellie. The system let Ellie down, not him or his wife. Does anyone know what happened to the other child?
A public inquiry . In addition he would work as a consultant and offer to testimony in upcoming cases of similar nature. There are other grandparents in great Britain going through this as we speak that can surely use his help
This "judge" should be thrown off the bench asap. When the shaken baby charge was dismissed she still should have considered ALL the past criminal history and jail time of this man. That ALONE should have reason enough not to have sent her back .
@@pnklady3788 well that came a bit too late right she still going to enjoy all her undeserved pension . She had BLOOD on her hands period the girl was happy with them that alone should have been reason ENOUGH
He's better than a lot of ppl. Time and time again I see the parents of those who kill their children in some of the most heinous of ways stick by them, and give their murderous child the courtesy the murderer never gave to their own child. I wish this man all the best. so so sad for him and the rest of the family
He must be devastated that his own daughter would kill their granddaughter. She's a beautiful, gorgeous and amazing little girl and she looks so cute and bubbly and now she's gone 😭 why would she kill her she's amazingly beautiful and polite I'm speechless 😪
She's the age of my little sister and I can just imagine what I would do if she died. I see her in the grandad's eyes. It's just wow... You're scared, worried, shocked, angry, upset and there's nothing you can do 😭😭😢😢😢😢😪😪😪😓😓😓😥
its a shame . he really loved being a grandfather , and will never be able to be one again . He gave Ellie life and joy and i hope he finds solace ♥ RIP Ellie Butler x
I pray for you that God gives you more strength to be able to find some peace in your life now.. May Ellie and your wife Rip and watch over you always xx
that judge should get a life sentence for this and she never ever ever be let out of prison for making a wrong decision an social workers accountable rip sweetheart stay strong Neil you deserve compensation for this disgusting treatment
This is similar to the recent rape case in the US where the culprit got only 6 months in normal jail. Monsters will always support other monsters. Nothing they hate more than victims.
Bless Ellie’s grandparents (God this poor man kills me) for giving her the proper life she deserved; shame on the system for taking her from her loving home with whom she considered her parents. RIP Ellie
Fancy being as vile as Jennie Gray and not once but TWICE covering up for that piece of shit she was going out with. No wonder she'd had her kids both removed from her as she clearly is as unfit as they come and no wonder her poor dad absolutely hates her. As for that pathetic Judge Hogg, she has little Ellie's blood on her hands. She should be prosecuted for her decision of ripping that girl away from where she was happy and settled which ended up having disastrous consequences.
i feel so sorry for ellis. s grandparents. the only year her grandparents never had her she was murdered. they fought in courts till they had no money and the judge still gave these evil people that little girl. the judge should be dis barred. im glad he has disowned his daughter id of done the same, i could never look at her again. my prays go to her grandparents
This poor grandfather needs justice for his granddaughter. What a wonderful grandad. Grandparents should have more rights than what they actually do at the moment.
I hope the judge losses her job and feels horrible guilty and can’t sleep at night because she obviously can’t do her job correctly otherwise this wouldn’t have happened
Bless him. Wish the presenter would stop calling her "your daughter". He's already made it clear she isn't anymore! Complete f up by the judge! RIP sweetheart and Linda. Please try and take comfort that they are together again Mr Gray. Heart goes out to you xx
There is something wrong here, that Judge returned Ellie to those evil hands,why? The mother getting three years is so wrong . Corruption's everywhere.
Children are constantly put at risk. That judge has blood on her hands.
Yes. I hope she feels really sorry for what she did.
@@fionagregory8078 I hope she never gets a another nights sleep again . She's as bad as the despicable parents!
Completely agree. Blood on her hands for life.
Bring back hanging and judge hog be first to be hung
I bet she couldn’t care less and hasn’t had a single thought about it. I truly believe she does not give a shit. And would NEVER admit she was wrong.
so dignified so genuine . a real man. sensitive but strong. i hope he knows how much support he commands . you are a gentleman and you were denied justice. i feel real love for you x

beautiful comment, well said 👏 xx
Me too, that poor man, it was so obvious how they adored Ellie,I still don't understand the Judges decision. The mother should rot in prison too .
He is a broken man. Bless him. My heart breaks for him. That judge is disgusting!! Put the thing in the slammer for the rest of its life.

My heart breaks for him

This grandfather is a hero. It is an absolute disgrace that a young child was placed back in the care of abusive parents.
will she stop saying your daughter FFS!!! HE'S DISOWNED HER LUV!!!!
Yeah, I'm surprised he didn't turn around and say "please stop calling her that, I said she's not my daughter."
Sigh

Jenny not only killed her daughter she killed her mother and essentially her father too
Poor Neal, he lost everything but gave so much. An amazing man.
This man is a truly beautiful soul. I'm so sorry you had to go through this.
So sad. God bless him! A strong gentleman
The Judge should never have another nights sleep or know another peaceful day. She has blood on her hands. My thoughts are with this little girl's grandparents. X
That man should be made “Man of the Year”.He is the epitome of pure love and we could learn a lot from him.
How can you describe a 6 year old as rude & lazy being the reason for beating her? To justify the violence???
A sick man
A psychopath.
A fine grandfather. Heart goes out to you. May Ellie watch over you as an angel.
very sad, poor grand parents, feel so sorry for him
I can only imagine the pain he must be in. so sorry for him
I cried so much during this heartbreaking interview the poor grandfather and grandma died of a broken heart
what an outstanding gentleman xx
That stupid judge who gave Ellie back. He warned her about what would happen.
She should also be in prison for murder if this little sweetheart
The private social services who allowed this may have the same mentality as the this child's killers. I believe they wanted the child to suffer for some sadistic reason. How hard is it to figure out that someone who attacked a 7 week baby would never change?
This is probably one of the saddest stories ever. Heart breaks for this man
This poor sweet man has lost everything 😞
Grandparents should be given more legal clout. They are usually the first to notice something is wrong. They need more rights.
Very sad indeed.
My heart breaks for this man I just want to hug him.
This grandfather is such a lovely man I’m so glad his traitor of a daughter and that evil Ben will hopefully never come out of prison… ever thankfully finally
Bless his heart. Prayers for him to find peace and comfort in his life. And that evil man gets his while he's in jail. Before he goes to hell for eternity.
My heart goes out to you. Poor beautiful little Ellie so sad.
Why did the mother take only 42 months???? This case was completely absurd, both trials just senseless.
Heartwrenching for the grandparents; the courts should have given full custody to them after her father was charged the first time, what a joke our judiciary system is! We need to reinstate the death penalty for monsters like himself and his partner; this sentence was an insult to Ellie and the grandparents who loved her so
What a beautiful human being.
This man is a true hero. He should be proud of himself for what he did for Ellie. The system let Ellie down, not him or his wife. Does anyone know what happened to the other child?
It's not your fault, Neal!
I am speechless & heartbroken. RIP for his wife & grandfather. Be strong, #N Grey.
I just learned of this recently on another video, my heart breaks for this poor man , that son in law and daughter are 2 evil pieces of shit
Poor girl :( Poor Grandfather :(
The awful mother of Ellie and why did she have another baby?
A public inquiry . In addition he would work as a consultant and offer to testimony in upcoming cases of similar nature. There are other grandparents in great Britain going through this as we speak that can surely use his help
I HATE HIM THE FATHER SO MUCH! STOP SHOWING THE VIDEOS WITH HER SICK DAD! SHE WAS SO HAPPY AND HE TOOK HER LIFE!
@done with that she deserves to be disowned. I would never leave my children in the care of a known monster and then defend him.
How the BBC employee tries to put all the blame on the man. Good for the grandfather for saying that she was the same way and that the fault is 50/50.
This "judge" should be thrown off the bench asap. When the shaken baby charge was dismissed she still should have considered ALL the past criminal history and jail time of this man. That ALONE should have reason enough not to have sent her back .
She's retired. They said so in the interview.

My Prayers go out to you Neal. Stay strong and pursue justice to the social services injustice served to your precious family.
why did they give that baby back to those monsters?(the state not the grandparents) and the judge needs to get his head handed to him
her head
this is heartbreaking that animals destroy a beautiful little girl
I wouldn't have trusted any person who had shaken a baby, poor grandparents were even raising the wee lass, rip princess.
its a shame . he really loved being a grandfather , and will never be able to be one again . He gave Ellie life and joy and i hope he finds solace ♥ RIP Ellie Butler x

He loved her so much ,, can feel it
