Phew thought it had happened again!

Speaking of news articles, I did see this one was written a few days ago. It's not new information or anything, just a re-telling of what happened but it's an Australian site. Shows you how global the story has gone.

Oh never mind guess I can't link that here for some reason lol. It's Mama Mia.

EDIT: Here it is - A 16-year-old schoolboy murdered a 6-year-old girl. His mum spotted him on CCTV footage.

I did too for a moment. I do expect some kind of attack if AC gets his sentence reduced. Hopefully not but would not surprise me, feelings will be running high.

My friend offered to let me stay at hers so I've decided to go along to the appeal after all. I guess there will be lots of people there in the public gallery area anyways so I won't stand out.

I'm not sure if it's different for Edinburgh High Court but in Glasgow, it's just the one.

7th August at the High Court in Edinburgh. Starts at 10:30am but you need to get their earlier. The lady on the phone suggested 10:15. Are you near Edinburgh?

I'm in Glasgow bronzepurple and I'm working that day too.

I’m off work. I may go. I feel daft going though like if her family see me and look at me like who the hell is this know it all haha

I honestly dont think they will notice anyone,there will be press and lawyers and god knows who and they will probably take the family in first,I think thats what @TaylorCallum said happened at the sentencing? So I'm sure you will be fine even though you might feel like you stand out a mile,I would feel the same though!

 

[Kiranerys]

@Edinlass,@TaylorCallum and @bronzepurple you guys should all arrange to meet up beforehand and go in together!!

Yeah they do, they take the family in first. I know what you mean though @Edinlass lol, it is a bit nerve-wracking and you're wondering if people are thinking "Why is that person here?" haha but I'm sure you'd be okay! There will be other people in the same boat.
