Can you please pull the thread ? It's turning into Nicola bully all over again. Alot of people are being sincere but there are some absolutely awful comments and I am shocked it is still standing.
Some people are really getting kicks out of this horrible situation, this lad has a family.
Armchair detectives, trolls etc it really needs to go Mumsnet.

Yet you've started another thread about.

It's definitely taken off as the new Nicola Bulley but with the added kangaroo court that it's some sort of karma. It's ugly to see how social media runs off on a bandwagon with these sort of stories.

Took them long enough.
It was disgusting.

Exactly this. Mumsnet why was it up for so long? Nearly 1k comments and you can guarantee another would have been made when it became full

I'm glad that vile rubbish has been deleted, but I'm astounded that the majority of those awful comments will have been posted by parents.

I am glad it has gone

That thread was a complete disgrace.

About time. Took them long enough.

I didn't see the usernames and the thread has gone now anyway.

allmyown · 21/06/2024 21:25

bottom line a 19 year old has probably lost their life alone and in horrendous circumstances. That is all that matters, and that thread is turning it into some sort of crude entertainment. That poor boy.

I don't think anyone is getting any kicks out of it at all but there is some absolutely nonsense being posted with people unable to think.

They are getting kicks out of it. Laughing and sniggering and making up 'hilarious' usernames and getting pats on the back for it.

They are getting kicks, like they did with Nicola. It's all the gossiping etc like it's eastenders or something

Yes, I just read bits. It's horrific.

sprigatito · 21/06/2024 21:03

I second this. I'm not easily shocked but people really are indulging their worst inclinations on that thread. There is a real family waiting for news, it's obscene to let people say these cruel things.

Funkyfizz · 21/06/2024 21:02

I agree. I reported it last night. No idea why MN are letting it stand.
