Story today in a few of the papers that the man who acid attacked Katie Piper has been released straight into the arms of his new woman who has been merrily instagramming his first weekend of release holed up in a ‘luxury hotel’ complete with the obligatory doggy eared snapchat with ‘LOVE’ written across the bottom of it.

Leaving aside that she is a mother and associating with a violent ex con is going to go down like cold sick with SS, why do some women do this? I just can’t imagine looking at those awful injuries Katie Piper has and thinking ‘yep’, he’s the man for me, the feller that did that!

Do they think they’ve fixed them or they’ve changed or do they believe it was the victims fault? It’s crap that we have Clare’s Law now but some women are going to fall victim to repeat offenders because they know, they just plain don’t care.

Where are we going wrong? Why is the message about how dangerous this is and how awful domestic violence is not getting through to some women? Do we need to have more intervention in schools? Survivors going out to explain what their experiences were really like? Or is it a self esteem issue? Or are some people just plain stupid?

It’s depressed me a lot this afternoon. Stupid, stupid woman.

YANBU at all

Cherries101 · 16/10/2018 15:53

This is the guy who was paid to throw acid on Katie right, by her ex and not the ex?

Yanbu.

Idontbelieveinthemoon · 16/10/2018 15:54

She's a twat, he's a twat, they deserve one another.

This ^^. How could you ever, ever get past that? Sadly it would indicate that she's as much of a psychopath as he is, has a dangerous appetite for risk and a careless disregard for her own safety.

YANBU, just disgusting. Poor Katie and her family having to see that.

MorrisZapp · 16/10/2018 15:56

I don't understand it either and yanbu, but I'm wary of the angle of pointing at a woman here. Her crime is naivete, stupidity or whatever. His was a sickening attack that has had devastating consequences.

Chilling

MyBeloved · 16/10/2018 15:56

Awful. And poor Katie - this must be knocking her sideways.

GoatWithACoat · 16/10/2018 15:56

I agree OP I thought the same. There are very messed up people in the world sadly. From the endless fan letters serial killers receive in prison to the ‘mothers’ who took their babies and toddlers to be abused by the Lost Prophet lead singer, there are always people who hate themselves so much they scrape the bottom of the barrel.

Starlive23 · 16/10/2018 15:57

YANBU - some people will do anything for a bit of attention. That's literally the only reason I can possibly think of. I couldn't imagine what else could draw anyone to someone so cruel.

DayManChampionOfTheSun · 16/10/2018 16:01

Aren't they married? I thought I read online that they met and married while he was in prison. So if that it the case, she basically sought after him after what knowing what he did and then started a relationship.

I think this stuff is all very odd and yadnbu

MyBiscuitspread · 16/10/2018 16:01

It baffles me to no end. Men like him deserve to be lonely for ever. The stupidity of this woman is an insult and embarrassment to womankind!

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 16/10/2018 16:03

YANBU. I'm sorry to be crude here but I think some people get turned on shagging a scum bag sicko.

Looking4wards · 16/10/2018 16:04

This is the guy who was paid to throw acid on Katie right, by her ex and not the ex?

Yes it was the paid 'hitman' not the ex.
If she married the ex I'd be even more Hmm.
He's probably a tough guy type, maybe she thinks he'll be her protector?

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 16/10/2018 16:06

I'd like to think SS are looking into this. I for one don't think he's safe to have around her children.
Yes I know it wasn't a child he hurt but even so

Gingerrogered · 16/10/2018 16:07

It’s the guy that threw it for her boyfriend. So I suppose he’s probably spun her some line about not wanting to do it or it not being his girlfriend so it’s not domestic violence or something.

He was eligible for release in 2015 but has been turned down for 3 years as too dangerous to release. She must be bloody crackers, I hope she has the sense to keep him away from her kid.

It was a nikah I believe, an Islamic ceremony not valid in U.K. law.

In shock this is true.

Whoever the woman is can fuck right off and deserves no attention on instagram.

HollowTalk · 16/10/2018 16:11

For better or worse takes on a whole new sinister meaning, doesn't it?

Cherries101 · 16/10/2018 16:12

He was a kid when he was paid, came from a very troubled background, it’s possible he has found himself in jail and become a better man. Either way what happened was not his wife’s fault and the judging wankery here is a bit much.

noeffingidea · 16/10/2018 16:15

Cherries what happened in the past was not his wife's fault. If he harms her children then she will be partially responsible.

diddl · 16/10/2018 16:15

" turned down for 3 years as too dangerous to release. "

Wonder what happened in those three years to make him now not too dangerous??

SlightDark · 16/10/2018 16:16

I will definitely judge a person who throws acid over another person with the intent to harm them.

Fucking despicable

Thesuzle · 16/10/2018 16:16

She will have another baby by him soon. God help us. It’s taken away by SS at the cost to you and me
