Anne- one mothers story the Hillsborough disaster

[Bananarama21]

Anyone watched the series it happened when I was 2 years old but the time it took to get to the truth was appalling.

I did and what struck me is how little the families got in terms of justice after such a long fight.

Yes and it’s really impacted me. Obviously knew the story but not in this way and as much of the detail. The poor families, what a disgrace the whole thing has been for them.

I was shocked that one of the victims died 32 years later due to his injuries what compensation did he get to help for his care nothing they finally ruled unlawful killing but they didn't held those responsible accountable.

What I've struggled with is that so many people believed the lies. As a Liverpool family we watched it unfold on the day. Heard how the police opened the gates, watched fans trying to save the dying and pleading with the police for help. Then the narrative changing to drunken hooligans causing it and stealing from the dying. They were telling us that we didn't see what we know we saw.

It's an absolute disgrace that 97 have been unlawfully killed and nobody has been held to account despite everyone knowing who was responsible. And don't forget all the other victims either, 300 people hospitalised, 466 walking wounded, and god knows how many with mental health problems.
