It was on Kyle's phone I think he, the solicitor, said.

It's really hard to watch! I've been desperately trying to Google the verdict to no avail!

I can't help the feeling that she's guilty of knowing he did something and trying to cover it up.

Really sad for the kids involved.

I've just started watching this on catch up.

I'm not 100% on what happened but I think when she was in the kitchen making the bottle, the bf shook the baby.

Did the bf have the baby when she phoned 101? She didn't notice the blood until she tried to wake her up.

1happyhippie · 06/02/2017 21:57

Oh sorry, I thought I heard it was her who searched on Google

Afreshstartplease · 06/02/2017 22:01

She's definitely odd

She seems detached from it. Going through the motions. Where's her fire if she's being falsely accused and her kids taken for nothing

fussygalore118 · 06/02/2017 22:02

She is weirdly calm. It's terribly uncomfortable viewing and so so sad for the children

HalfShellHero · 06/02/2017 22:03

Oh dear those texts are more damning....

Sleepingbunnies · 06/02/2017 22:04

Just turned on plus 1...

Afreshstartplease · 06/02/2017 22:04

If she is guilty TBH I'd like to think her own mum washes her hands of her and continues to support her grandchildren

HalfShellHero · 06/02/2017 22:05

She'll be so utterly depressed and lost any will to go on, guilty or not loosing your kids is terrible...

Sleepingbunnies · 06/02/2017 22:06

Just in the first couple of minutes there is no emotion? Very flat?

BedHeaded · 06/02/2017 22:06

That fb message.... Poor baby.

BusterTheBulldog · 06/02/2017 22:07

It doesn't seem from the way she is acting like she even had kids? Really odd.

Sleepingbunnies · 06/02/2017 22:08

Agree buster

BlytheOfWindyWillows · 06/02/2017 22:11

This is very difficult viewing. How can she be so detached?

Sleepingbunnies · 06/02/2017 22:11

That 999 call is odd. Iv made a 999 call for a baby that's stopped breathing and you don't sound like that!!!

CarTrack · 06/02/2017 22:12

Why is she defending him? It's so sad. And the Mum was very strange, I would've expected more anger from her towards the Father, but no.

But social services were obviously right to take the children away, she failed miserably in keeping them safe and still is.

tobecontinued2000 · 06/02/2017 22:13

I'm not at the text part yet, who text who?

Juicyfrooty · 06/02/2017 22:13

It wasn't even 99 they called it was the non emergency number.

She seems more concerned about kyle than the children.

ColdFeetinWinter · 06/02/2017 22:13

She has to believe her own understanding of what happened is my thought. Otherwise she feels a sense of blame.

She can't face up to her own culpability (staying with him despite knowing that he was a risk) so she is taking a complete cognitive dissonant approach

Mousybrown · 06/02/2017 22:14

She's detactch because she has been though something so horrific her mind can't process it. She has lost her children and she has to detach to survive. She looks lost and depressed to me

Sleepingbunnies · 06/02/2017 22:14

So detached. I don't know what to think.

ColdFeetinWinter · 06/02/2017 22:16

I don't think she will ever be safe to have a baby unless someone is able to unpick her need to defend a man that killed her child.

In my job I have come across women like this. (Tbh look in the relationships section on here and you'll see this) They don't want something to be true and they search for any script, story or theory they can clutch onto rather than face a difficult concept or change in their life.
