I've nearly finished it on NowTv.

It seems so bloody obvious to me that he's saying "Eric did this" with a severely burned throat and mouth could be her trying to say "Jerry king did this"

She couldn't pronounce the C to her surname so how about she couldn't pronounce the J to Jerry King?

Erry King could easily been mistaken for Eric.

He had evidence (her keys which he tampered with) he wasn't questioned (that I'm aware?!) no idea whether he has an alibi and previously been arrested for indecent exposure.

Why hasn't this been explored in depth?!

Try true crime groups on Facebook loads of people will have opinions on this

Well I am going to now! Thanks for the heads up!

FizzyIce · 03/01/2020 17:49

I’ve watched it but can’t think who Jerry is

Lockheart · 03/01/2020 17:51

This is in no way an AIBU - that might be why you didn't get many responses. Perhaps try the telly addicts forum?

Bluerussian · 03/01/2020 17:54

Never heard of her but will look it up.

Bluerussian · 03/01/2020 17:56

I have now looked and the murder is too horrific for me to be able to watch anything about it.

HowDoIhelp321 · 03/01/2020 18:07

it's more of an AIBU than half the threads on here, Lockheart!

It's not a 'tell programme' it's a murdered woman that they documented.

There’s my night sorted

notsodimwit · 03/01/2020 18:34

Poor poor Jessica 😥😥 she so deserves justice!

HowDoIhelp321 · 03/01/2020 18:52

@TheDarkPassenger let me know what you think!

namina · 03/01/2020 19:13

Nope but thanks for the heads up I will watch

TigerOnATrain · 03/01/2020 19:15

@HowDoIhelp321

No I have never heard of it, OR the case. It sounds horrific though, and I am not sure if I wanna watch it!

Myheadisamess31 · 03/01/2020 19:22

I watched it and it was just awful and heartbreaking. Poor poor young woman!! I absolutely agree with you about Jerry / Eric. Especially with his previous record. I think the main suspect though also is a deceitful git lying so much.

I hope she finally gets justice. Listening to those poor firefighters having to relieve it was so upsetting

paranoidmum2 · 03/01/2020 19:22

I’ve been meaning to watch this but have been dreading it as I don’t think she gets justice.

HowDoIhelp321 · 04/01/2020 08:00

Did anyone watch any of it?

OP posts:
TheDarkPassenger · 04/01/2020 18:32

Okay I’m up to ep 5 now! I font know how I feel about it all, Jerry is dodge but I’m feeling it’s probably some kind of gang/drug thing tbh. She’s deffo not the angel her parents seem to think she was!

MistyCloud · 04/01/2020 21:24

@HowDoIhelp321

Where can I watch this please?

TheDarkPassenger · 04/01/2020 21:27

@MistyCloud now tv :)

I’m finished now. I have my thoughts on the situation but I won’t ruin it for others!

Thegirlwithnousername · 04/01/2020 22:51

I watched it! It was fascinating.
I hadn't occurred to me about the Jerry King that is a very good point!.
I agree it was heartbreaking watching the fireman recount and many of them have left since because of it.

Thegirlwithnousername · 04/01/2020 22:52

@TheDarkPassenger
Would love to know your theory can you PM me it?

MistyCloud · 05/01/2020 23:36

Thanks @TheDarkPassenger

Unfortunately, I don't have NOW TV. Sad

SweetMarmalade · 05/01/2020 23:44

I watched it on Sky Crime. Awful case.

I never thought about Eric being Jerry King. They seemed very sure she said Eric. Did I miss where she couldn’t pronounce her own name? (Strong possibility I did)!

TheDarkPassenger · 05/01/2020 23:51

@SweetMarmalade in the second trial some of the emergency responders admit that she was just making gargled noises rather than saying the clear words ‘Eric did this’

SweetMarmalade · 05/01/2020 23:57

You’re absolutely right though, Jerry King could easily come out sounding like Eric, especially if you were struggling to talk!
