McConnachie: ‘It is an understatement to say the summary and conclusion of the doctor’s report makes for depressing reading. The doctor makes an apology to the court for the pessimism that is apparent.’

Even the doctors got no hope for him...

I sincerely hope Alesha's parents and family were pre advised about his confession before they all went into court

There's going to be so much background detail to come out about this horrific case by the very nature of this boy.
Less than ideal - his mum has a drink. So what!!!!! People have less than ideal childhoods they DO not carry out crimes to this depravity!
I know what your saying but we don't have the full facts. I'm in shock never mind the family however my mind still wants to try and understand how and why he's turned out like this.

God that was tense. I think everyone was shocked when they said he admitted responsibility.

‘Mr Campbell understands there is no certainty he will ever be released. He will spend 4 years in a Young Offenders Institution before reaching an adult prison. It is clear from reports he has had a less that ideal upbringing but that is in no way a mitigation for such a crime’.

Can’t type what this horror of a boy is...no words are sufficient to describe how depraved to put Aleshas family and friends through this.

Im not surprised by his history. It seems the rumours had a lot of truth in them.

Totally agree , by that he probably means dad worked away and mum liked a few wines. She possibly drank to help herself cope with her monster son.

He didn’t appear very emotional. His back was to me most of the time but I was right at the front, so I was close to him. He glanced briefly at me when he turned to leave. He bit his lip slightly but that was it.

Background report 'depressing reading'

A report into Aaron Campbell “makes depressing reading,” his lawyer has said.

The doctor who complied it apologised for the pessimism apparent throughout it.

It also found Campbell “presents a wide range of factors with regard to sexually harmful behaviour”.

I know. I think if it was really horrific they wouldn’t have used the words ‘less than ideal’ more depraved or words to that affect. I care little what he went through tbh.

Wonder why he has asked for the judge to take his age into account then?

Hope you're doing ok in there Taylor x

Oh I’m good thank you! It was just very tense. I feel awful for the family. What a nightmare.

We’re waiting outside again until we get called back in so Lord Matthews can give his sentencing

I reckon he was abused himself. No excuse for what happened, but it's a common pattern in abusers.
