apparently the other three children have now also been taken into care. Despite the fact she has dumped the stepfather.

DJCod · 04/04/2008 12:53

adn there is at least one BLIND magistrate - a chair too wannabe!

wannaBe · 04/04/2008 12:56

here

ooooh is there? How does that work though with having to view evidence?

Greyriverside · 04/04/2008 13:28

I wondered that (about viewing evidence), but think of the advantage of never being swayed by the defendants 'shifty' eyes, how expensive his clothes or what color skin he had. I know he'd be told about race etc, but I'm thinking about unconscious attitudes.

I really feel for all of the children involved in this, its like something out of a bloody film.

Immaculateconception · 04/04/2008 14:35

Like I have said already, this is just the tip of the iceberg. Am very relieved that my nephews and neices are now in the care of social services.

tiredemma · 04/04/2008 14:37

You feel that more damaging info is about to come out IC?

Not at liberty to say what I know in full. I am just relieved that the kids are out of there.

tiredemma · 04/04/2008 14:51

I understand. Hope the children are ok and not traumatised by all this

Immaculateconception · 04/04/2008 15:59

Two women have been arrested in connection with the kidnapping of Shannon

tiredemma · 04/04/2008 16:02

its all very strange isnt it?

Immaculateconception · 04/04/2008 16:03

Doesn't surprise me in the least

tiredemma · 04/04/2008 16:26

Isnt one of them the next door neighbour?

DJCod · 04/04/2008 16:26

well the mum is 32

tiredemma · 04/04/2008 16:27

its his sister from next door and a woman with the same surname as him.

cocolepew · 04/04/2008 16:33

Someone my DH knew when he was younger has been charged with psuedo images. These weren't children but his, very young looking, SIL dressed as a schoolgirl. He had other images that were children. My DH says that when he (the neighbour) went to university he came home and showed my DH pictures of his girlfriend posing in 'porno poses' dressed a a young girl.

tiredemma · 04/04/2008 16:39

Is it significant that Sky News just said 'alleged abduction' as opposed to 'abduction' which they have been using?

Very cruel if this was all planned.

crackinggoodegg · 04/04/2008 16:43

Apparently the two women arrested are the stepfather's mother and sister.

jesuswhatnext · 04/04/2008 16:45

dear god, what a bloody mess

wannaBe · 04/04/2008 16:58

good god. Why is it an aledged abduction though?

3andnomore · 04/04/2008 17:06

I haven't really followed the story...but I had no idea that the Kidnapper was the stepfathers uncle...!
Whatever happens, hope the little girl is o.k.

Blu · 04/04/2008 17:18

Everythng is 'alledged' until proven in court.

Paninni · 04/04/2008 17:24

oh Blu...this is MN! Some poster think they, and this site, is bomb-proof - despite the GF Experience....
