I would like to share with you all something that made my hairs stand on end last night.
Last weekend I wrote out my entire thoughts about what happened and how it happened from the minute they left home to go to Becky's that fatal morning, to the minute they were arrested. So much happens each day that I forgot some of the small details I wrote as I went along. I thought last night I would have a read through it, because I wanted to write up something to do with how Shauna's defence might go.
I came to the part about them leaving AG/DG's house, with Becky lying dead in their boot. I wrote that they had not had a chance alone yet to discuss what to do about their predicament. On the journey home they were going through the options, 'water? no she'll float, we have to find a way she will never be discovered. bury her? no I can't dig, I'm in too much pain and you can't cos your pregnant'. By the time they arrived home, they had thought of nothing that would work.
And that's when Shauna really let off at Nathan, and the neighbour heard the rowing and slamming doors. How he had to find a way out of this because it was all his fault that the kidnap had gone wrong. And now, if they were caught, her child, and babies who would be born in custody, would be taken away from them and put into care. Anjie and Darren wouldn't be a suitable home for them because their relationship with them would be destroyed after this.
And then I read yesterday that a call was made to Children in Care that evening! I find that quite chilling.
It even suggests a reason they rekindled a relationship with Shauna's Mum. A temporary home for the children until she gets out of prison.
