      Why would the Brits want this awful person to be taken alive to be let out of jail, to then destroy more lives???? How did he get the gun?? Him ending his own life was the best thing he ever did for anyone. Many people have chap childhoods, but they do not terrorise a country in retaliation.

      I was wondering if you could cover Ezra McCandless? She killed her boyfriend because she was going through an identity crisis and identified herself as a male and when she decided that she was not wishing to identify as a male any longer, her boyfriend wasn't really about it and then that set her off to make her want to kill him and she carved the word boy into his body.

    It's also crazy how Raoul was saying why does he only care about him now because he was basically told by his mom that his dad didn't care about him, then he ends up doing the same thing to his daughters with their mom.

      I personally think it's a little suspicious that Raoul's Dad claims to want him in his life but only shows up at the end..Raoul was an adult, his mom couldn't keep his dad away anymore, his Dad had plenty of time to reconnect if Raoul was open to that. I've seen a lot of absent parents that show up suddenly when the reality of their old age becomes very apparent to them and they want someone around to care or provide for them. There's not enough information for that to be a solid conclusion but I'm just saying it's a little sus that was the moment he chose to make an appearance..

He did it bc he was an entiled(white, cishet) man and couldn't take it that he had to face consequences of his actions. He as an abuser in prision for battering a child. If this woman sees this as alright or something that shouldn't be punished she shouldn't have kids, much less of male gender. She seems like Chris Watts' or Scott Peterons' mother. One that will blame the victim and defend her kid even when they commit murder.

I think it's totally messed up that Sam, who also barely survived herself, wasn't allowed at Chris's funeral. Did they also think it was her fault she was shot? No one is responsible for another adults actions. I bet she already had enough survivors guilt as it was. I feel horrible for her.

    I find all his actions despicable but you have to question why the police didn’t step in when he was chronically lying about his daughters mother.

AFTER the shooting, he left his wife and had an affair with a victim of the 7/7 bombings - the one on the Tavistock Square bus. He lied about the affair, and when his wife found out, she finally wanted the marriage over. As she refused to take him back, he killed himself. So the trauma was not the reason he killed himself.

    In an interview, Chris’s mother said about Samantha: “He had just met Sam Stobbart. Moat was paranoid about the police, so telling him that Chris was a police officer just made it even worse. Ten years on, we haven’t heard anything from her.
    “At the trial [of Moat’s accomplices] she did not look our way, there was nothing. I was expecting her to come up and say ‘I’m sorry’.”
    After I finished reading that passage, I got upset
 to be fair YOU told Samantha flat out not to come near your sons funeral. Do you realize how heartbroken Sam must of been.. do you even realize the pain she must of felt to be turned away by his own family in a time she was just as devastated as them. And then for YOU to tell the news outlet afterwards we haven’t heard anything from her since as in placing BLAME on her
 has it ever occurred to you or crossed your mind that Samantha felt shunned by you and your family? Samantha has it in her mind you don’t want anything to do with her. By coming up to you to offer her condolences made it impossible because YOU (Chris’s mother and family) basically shunned her

To come up to them and express remorse? She can't do both. She can either leave you or keep contact with you. I know Chris's mom is grieving, but after 10 years I think it's long enough to maybe realize that Sam is just respecting the family's wishes and staying away. Bc they wanted her to.

It would have occured either way in my opinion. Also it was both of their doing that lie. Poor Samantha

I understand why the family felt the way they did, but surely something could've been done. Chris died for her.

      They're acting as if Chris wasn't a grown ass man who knew perfectly well what he was getting himself into dating her. She was upfront about what she had going on. She probably forewarned him before starting the relationship. He could have backed out at any point and left and said that it was too much for him. But instead, he decided to stay. That's not just on Sam. That's on the grown ass Chris too. Chris wasn't being held against his will. He knew the risk he was putting himself at. And he gave his life to save the woman he loved. No matter how short their relationship ended up being, he loved her. I don't know. If I were in his position, I'd be livid with my family. I'd understand but I'd still be angry at them for it. Neither of them could have ever imaged a roid raged psychopath would do something like this, though. Sam isn't to blame for another person's actions. Especially when she suffered the most, not only having to watch the man she loved die, but to know it was at the hands of someone that was only there because of her, and then to be shot herself and have to deal with all of that physical pain on top of the mental. Not to mention, she was still young and vulnerable after getting out of an abusive relationship. I know grief does crazy things to people, but blaming an innocent person who was also a victim, just isn't right.

      Viz David Rathband. It turned out that he had not been the best of husbands. He had had a string of affairs long before the shooting. AFTER the shooting, he left his wife and had an affair with a victim of the 7/7 bombings - the one on the Tavistock Square bus. He lied about the affair, and when his wife found out, she finally wanted the marriage over. As she refused to take him back, he killed himself. So the trauma was not the reason he killed himself.

    How could the family blame Samantha AT ALL for what Raul did to Chris? She more than likely assumed that Raul would only ever hurt her and would leave Chris alone because Raul would come looking specifically for her, she couldn't have known just how much more unhinged Raul had become during his prison sentence. Chris was a hero, he saved her life. Samantha probably still has alot of trauma from having gone through this whole ordeal, it's devastating to think of Chris's family adding to that trauma by putting their grief on her in the form of blaming her for Chris getting caught in the path of Raul's rath. The last thing someone who had the courage to leave an abusive situation and had their abuser come back to cause them and the people they love harm needs is the family putting any degree of blame on them and not even allowing them to attend the funeral to be able to properly grieve the traumatic events. Chris is a hero, but his family should definitely be ashamed of themselves for treating Samantha the way they did. I fully understand that everybody grieves differently but how they treated her was cold and uncaring. I hope someday they realize how poorly they treated her and can find the courage within themselves to set things right with her. She doesn't deserve to have to carry the burden of guilt for this mad man's actions around.

It always saddens me when I see these type of cases where if a bipolar person had taken care of their condition it could all be prevented.

Not to that extreme at all, but he would slander me to her and when she was younger, she would believe it because I would refuse to Slander him back or even try to find out from her what he would say because that wasn’t fair to put her in between this juvenile bullshit. I was absolutely miserable as he buddied up with her and they didn’t include me in their little club. She is now 16 and figured out what her dad is like and how everything he told her about me was a lie. He isn’t even in her life now, not because of me, he and she just grew apart and my daughter and I are very close now. She knows that what he did was not cool. I don’t want anything from that man. I don’t get child support or anything. I can take care of my daughter in every way all by myself thank you very much. Women, get these losers out of your life.

Luckily since it happened so close to the summer holidays, everyone kind of forgot about it by the time the next school year rolled over, but it still came up from time to time and I always felt really bad for her. I also find it such a shame that the whole case became kind of a meme because of Gazza showing up, to the point that if anyone is to mention this case even today, the only thing people think about is Gazza and what a weird thing it was for him to show up, and the real tragedy of the actual events - the murder of Chris, debilitating injury and eventual suicide of David, lifelong trauma for Samantha and the other victims of his abuse - are usually forgotten. So thank you for covering this one, I'm happy at least the full story is out there and accessible again after so long.

    Just want to say I have had that exact same nightmare and have had it for many many years off and on. Running from someone (unknown who it is) as a child down the street that I grew up on.
    Also should mention my childhood was perfectly healthy and happy. No mental illness for me or anyone else in immediate family. Last I checked I’m also not a murderer.
    I think that nightmare is very common- it’s up there with the whole being naked in public nightmare.

I don't think the Westend is as bad as it has been made out and I'd say its a nicer place to live than the East Side of Newcastle.

    How different could the life of Raoul be if only his mother allowed his father to be in his life.
    Many parents would be ashamed and wouldn't involve themselves in such a situation and Raoul's father decided to show up for his son in his darkest hour. This has touched me so much.
    If only the mother allowed, father could have influenced Raoul to become a decent human.
