BBC Question Time Paris Lees

[ILikeBigCrisps]

Next week in Leeds! Other guests TBC.....

I think the birthplace is available by googling, he talks about it in his 'poor me growing up gay trans in a rough area' articles

Ah, the person I have found didn't rob an elderly man though, it was a woman. She has since died though. (Trying to be vague - do not want to slander!!)

I was searching all crime by 16-18 year olds for a guessed date range. Paris says they are from Hucknall and this particular one that I narrowed it down to (narrowed down by the crime, not by the area) was tried in Nottingham crown court

I know this is for crimes applicable from 2012 committed by 18+ year olds, but a) the tariffs for sentences rarely get lowered; and b) they are usually more lenient for minors (as PL was when the offence was committed), but it backs up my point that to get a two year sentence for a burglary means that there were significant aggravating factors

Oh well I just found it, 31, born Jan 1 1987 shrug

There were only four male children born in Hucknall in the first quarter of 1987, and none of them appear to have been convicted

Wow beyond. My googling is amateur compared to you.

My googling is obvs a bit shit as well as I just tried via proxy!

going off down rabbit holes is a hobby of mine!

I'm so interested in what you find out. Don't give up! Some of it must be out there ..

My potential criminal is 1987, I can't find an exact date. There was also someone with the same name born in 1990 and there is (only) one on Facebook, so I'm half tempted to contact him and ask his dob. Compulsive nosiness!

Anyway, they were registered in stoke on Trent, which is not a million miles away...?

do share with us in a non-slanderous way when you find something

I would wonder whether he’s completely honest about his age. I’d put him early 30s, at least

Maybe it will all come out in PL's memoir?

As yet unpublished, (and unwritten?) alas, as I feel sure he wouldn’t be able to gloss over a life event like that

Shall we create a stock tweet to direct at David Dimbleby ahead of the event? Something about self ID, the petition and the scale of women's concerns? I'd tweet and retweet without cease

Beyond - AFAIK PL has always used the surname Lees, as it's the name of his father - www.thetimes.co.uk/article/relative-values-i-was-once-mums-son-now-im-her-daughter-m5f9hsp722q

PL may be lying about their age to further distance themself from past crimes? Obviously we can't fully find what we are looking for if we don't know their true age? That's my thought anyway...
