Not long enough but more than I expected. He must never ever be let out IMO.

I’m in floods of tears. Omg I couldn’t have imagined in my wildest dreams that utter devastating!!!!!!

 

[Yenriac]

27 years. That was awful watching that and hearing the crying in the background.

 

[helenff]

Devastating to hear how he took her and told her he was a friend. Devastating. Wish I hadn't watched the stream actually. What a monster. Also devastating that a 16 year old could be so evil.

 

[Sleuthdolf]

That was hard to watch. Absolutely heartbreaking the way he took her. I feel bad for some of the theories I came out with yesterday. I'm lost for words. Just horrible.

Alesha’s mum screams across court “rucking rat”, “vile rat & “ disgusting” as Aaron is led to the cells showing no emotion.

Omg I'm crying, I honestly can't believe the vile things he said. I hope somebody gets to him asap inside. Her poor parents

 

[Mrs Marple]

I don't think he will ever be out.

 

[TaylorCallum]

I was absolutely wrong when I said I thought he might not be a psychopath. He is definitely an out and out psychopath. Georgina shouted and swore at him after he was sentenced and he smiled at her as he was led away.

 

[Kiranerys]

Absolutely no words as I sit here sobbing listening to that. That darling baby and her family,I can't even begin to comprehend their pain

 

[Ardoch]

He gave her a hoodie because she was cold. That statement.

 

[Alyce]

Harrowing - particularly hearing someone crying when the Judge said AC told Alesha he was taking her home.

Also, did I hear correctly - he went into the house twice ?

Thank you for your updates!!

 

[shenmue]

I'm happy with that, if the judge could have given life he would, i'm very confident he won't ever be released.

 

[Edinlass]

God he doesn’t care. No amount of years , torture nothing he’s dead already. Like nothing can hurt this monster, nothing. ThT is what is trually devastating. Hearing that alesha asked where he was going etc. I just can’t. I’m heartbroken beyond words

 

[89leanne89]

I can't stop shaking. I wish I hadn't watched that.
