    Corrections:
    I accidentally mis-typed the date on the opening title card. Shouldd read 17th of December, as per the narration, not the 7th. My apologies.

      I agree with what has been said about dbs checks. I’m 55 and recently got accepted as a guitar tutor but before I was accepted I had to have a basic disclosure carried out and paid for by myself. This should be the case for anyone who is going to be interacting with younger people

      I was a School Governor for nine year's and had to have two CRB checks during that time, as they have to be done every four year's, but if the Head allowed this to happen at the school I was at the school governors would have sacked him, thankfully the school I was a Governor at the Head was one for the finest detail.

    YES!!! A DiD upload! Such a horrible, horrible case. Maybe since I'm the father of girls, but when someone kills kids but girls, especially, it just hurts a little more and is a little more sad. When these perverts see these young kids as viable sexual participants, it is even more disturbing and disgusting.

    We are far too soft on sex offender’s, even RUclips protects them. Theres a line you don’t cross and for those that do then they should be removed from society for the rest of their lives. Not giving them suspended sentences and allowing them to destroy innocent young lives. They are monsters but are treated like humans..

    I have a friend of mine that suggests a solution for convicted Pedo offenders. His take is that we shouldn't spend money to house them, but instead profit from them. His idea is that a colosseum or arena could be build for the purpose, charging a small free for stones and a fee for a streaming service - even having a proxy means for the streaming viewers to cast stones. When the signal is made, everyone throws their stones at the convicted, end of issue! At the end of each event a portion of the funds is given to the families of the victims.
    There are times that I don't disagree with him...

    Huntley in August 2002, was detained at Rampton Hospital in Bassetlaw, for nearly two months after his arrest, but transferred to a mainstream prison on remand after being declared fit to stand trail, people who don't know what Rampton Hospital it's one of the high security Mental Hospital, the other two being Ashworth Hospital near Liverpool and the most famous one Broadmoor Hospital, Rampton Hospital as at the moment and as since she was sentenced Nurse Beverley Allitt, unfortunately I live in Bassetlaw with Ranby Prison and Rampton Hospital in the same area is not good for house value, also Charles Bronson was also at Rampton Hospital.

    Look into information outside of the mainstream media reports. Huntley is the fall guy for a much bigger cover up which involves the USAF military base in Lakenheath where the girls' bodies where discovered on its perimeter. The only officer who happened to be the family liason officer for one of the family's was the only one who attempted to make a link between the murder of the girls' and the military base. Not long after he was suddenly charged with being in possession of child porn and also had been accused of rape against a minor and silenced from then on. After that there was never any mention again of the link between the murders and the military base. There's more to it.

( Did Huntley go to the police to make a statement or was he approached as part of house to house enquiries ?)

    A few points it was Carr that had the relationship with the girls and may have
    already groomed them it certainly appears likely in my opinion. He as far as
    I know didn't know them and worked at the College not their school even though
    close in proximity. A scenario I considered was she was incensed at not getting
    the job she applied for and wanted to get back at the school by arranging a
    staged kidnapping and implicating him at the same time allegedly. She knew
    full well his history with young girls and likely rightly assumed he would be
    blamed. Of course she made sure she had an alibi. She could have invited them
    to the house and once inside they would have panicked realising they she was
    not there and they were alone with a man they didn't know. He could indeed be
    telling the truth in part and I wouldn't be surprised if no SA occurred because that
    wasn't the motive. She wanted to be a hero and they were not supposed to be
    harmed just held long enough for her to come home and save them from her
    monster boyfriend allegedly. I would like to know if Jessica had bought Carr a
    gift on holiday I believe the girls had left home without telling anyone that was
    unusual according to parents. His reason for keeping quiet is he won't admit
    the real reason these beautiful children died was to please a woman who he
    is no longer in a relationship with allegedly. This is my theory I think the whole
    investigation was rushed as it seemed an obvious case of a P having access to
    children in a school setting however she had even more.
