Aria Thorpe. She is pictured outside in front of a hedge. She has long dark hair and brown eyes and is looking ahead, making a heart symbol with her fingers.

Theres a thread on this, a lot of people think it’s ok because the jury decided he wasn’t guilty 🤦‍♀️

OMG I’ve just realised it actually is a different case to the identical one last year or the year before. 😱

I’ve found the other case. Falaq Babar was the victim, it was 2022, and it was a punch not a stab but otherwise very similar. Male violence against a female sibling.
