With reference to a previous contributor:
“Yeah I am scared to imagine what exactly the judge was referring to when he said that the crimes were worse that he had imagined...it was him pointing to what AC has specifically done to her on the night in great detail....he must have revealed even more to the social worker.”
Yes, up to the sentencing, all we knew was that Alesha had "catastrophic" genital injuries, more severe to that part of her body than the 'pathologist had ever witnessed before' in his years of forensic experience - & at least some of which he concluded were inflicted while she was still alive. She suffered "severe injuries to her private parts & that there were""obliteration" injuries caused by severe force inflicted on her. Her injuries included tears to her private parts, one of which “essentially obliterated” part of her genital area... As a result of the subsequent confession, we then knew this: Campbell’s lawyer, Brian McConnachie QC: ‘The admission at this stage could be seen as a factor that further aggravates matters’ The“crimes could be “even worse than the evidence” heard during the trial.” McConnachie: ‘This is not a simple sentencing. I have never dealt with something of this nature in the past.” (The reason that Campbell was trying hard not to smirk & laugh at his trial was because the experts had failed to identify a particular nasty, despicable aspect of his crime. ie,Campbell had got away with something so vile & horrendous that people hearing details of it have been physically sick). Those that are privy to the confession are under tremendous emotional strain of keeping this private & to themselves. It was agree in court that this “detail will not be read out”. That was because fear of uproar, mayhem & commotion that would undoubtedly ensue. The sentencing hearing would have been adjourned, the court-room cleared, extra security brought in etc, with the police effectively trying to quell a riot. However, the Scottish Government will have to release these details very soon before it leaks out in other media. To not make public this confession would be seen as acting against the public interest & make the Government complicit in covering up a crime & protecting the guilty party. I would imagine that Campbell will be formally charged with this barbaric act but will not face court proceedings for it. Instead, it will remain officially documented & recorded on file, hence ensuring that he will never be released from prison, for this is the most debased, revolting act against a person that is known to humanity, compounded only by a perpetrator carrying it out whilst their victim is still alive. All inmoh...
