The absolute FAILURE of authorities is disgusting. What Jennifer, Susan and those children had to go through because of that failure was completely preventable and disgusting.
The police only help you after you've been set on fire. All women need to be allowed to carry a firearm however they want to
I absolutely agree. Disgusting.
It seems it’s always a failure. When will it ever change????
@jorgejiminez-rk1uu it really is,and people like police and judges only truly care if it happens to them.
There should be compensation of the highest degree. This is absolutely horrific and a sure example of how women are STILL dismissed as hysterical people that over exaggerate everything.
The way the police ignored this family is absolutely infuriating!!! Shame on them! I hope Susan filed a wrongful death suit.
Didn't it state she was taking legal action?
@@loveforeignaccents I may have missed it.
@@kathryncumberland She did. 28:09.
Tbf, the police tried to prosecute him early on, and the prosecution people stopped them (the threat to life and weapons charges). They are hamstrung as well.
In the uk it's common knowledge that the police are mainly on the side of the aggressor
This poor woman did everything, made reports, used courts and complaints against her abuser and still ended up with the same results as women they victim blame for not reporting. It’s *super comforting* to know the police are helpful, take threats to your life seriously and have plenty of manpower… after people are dead.
How on earth was he downgraded from high risk to low risk? I get that they were having staffing issues but what was so important that two people had to die?
You only muddy the waters with the ideological "victim blame" stuff. Here in Canada, they have wasted efforts "informing" that victims aren't to blame for crimes commited against them when of course that wasn't the problem in the first place.
That narrative just results in efforts going in the wrong direction and the problem persists.
@@goblin-night Victim blaming is part of the problem in some cases, especially with children, abusive parents are often given slaps on the wrist because "the children need discipline" for too many parents means violence and neglect and courts look the other way.
This is typical
@@goblin-night the problem persists because people like you would rather mansplain something that mainly only happens to women, than to actually acknowledge it for what it is. It’s not a “narrative,” it’s a fact.
My god that last series of 999 calls is absolutely harrowing. That poor family was completely failed by the police.
I am as shocked as you, but, given how the UK police do not seem at all interested in protecting us, are you at all surprised?
@@danielmoran9902it’s clear as day where police priorities lay these days but still shocking to see the results of it laid bare in this horrific case but I agree with you I shouldn’t be surprised.
They are protecting police officers who commit DV and worse.
@@ivydickson7596also they are wasting precious resources on policing people’s thoughts and opinions which is a complete waste of time imo. Also the British police have faced pretty savage cuts like the rest of British society which has lead to a far more dangerous society that sometimes feels pretty lawless.
That's where I have paused the video to write this. It is so distressing after all the calls they had already made. Uesless police!!
As soon as he broke the bail condition not to contact her he should have been locked up. The fact that that he was able to repeatedly break that bail condition with no action taken is atrocious. It led to death. I would have expected individual officers to have been reprimanded for failing to communicate and take appropriate action. It seems the police systems were so poor they couldn’t even deem that officers had failed to use the systems properly. Terrible.
Exactly! No contact should be no contact! They acted like he's just making phone calls so what's the harm. So tragic :(
Oh no, why would they? Clearly, they empathized with him.
The sheer incompetence of essex authorities on this case is absolutely disgusting.
The bar is set very low to get into the police force. Subsequently competencies are always going to be low despite training. Additionally incompetent officers are not brought to account. A recipe for disaster and heartbroken families of victims.
If I screw up once at my job, I'm fired. When the police screw up time after time after time again, they come up with a thousand excuses why they failed an innocent family
Thats the power of being a freemason
Men just get away with everything
@@Reacher_2215 victim blamer
@@lou106 victim
@@Reacher_2215 "women let them?" You do know that healthy men are in control of their own emotions and impulses? Right? It's not a partner/spouses job to fix maladaptive personalities.
This is harrowing. The failure of authorities to protect the family is incredible. The man was a monster. I’m so sick of hearing about men loosing it and the DV that goes along with it. One woman is murdered a week in Australia at the hands of a man.
D.v is gross.. its also a genderless crime.
That's what happens when you ban effective self-defense, bogan loser. Quit watching this stuff if you're sick of hearing about it.
@@nickjones7737sure but it’s well known MEN are almost ALWAYS the perpetrators of DV. Women are called irrational, crazy and overly emotional but it’s almost always men who lose their sh1t and hurt/K1ll people.
@@nickjones7737 gender based violence with women on the receiving end is far more common. I also understand that domestic violence is committed in all kinds of relationships. However stalking, DFV and murder are overwhelming committed by men against women. To many lives are lost ti men who for what ever reasons feel they are entitled to act out on other people. More needs to be done to protect women and also to help men. Mental health for men is obviously an issue that needs to be addressed. Yes women suffer with mental health issues to however women are more likely to seek help or turn in themselves. Men do not seek help and lash out. This is all based on statistics. So when I see comments like yours it really does prove how far we have to go to address GBV in our society. Don’t get defensive get proactive. This will help everyone
@@tulipchic34 "far more common".. the stats are 1 in 3 women, 1 in 4 men. Ghats not far more common. It's abhorrent either way.
Burnt. In agony. Terrified. And still she prioritized comforting her daughter. Beautiful, amazing woman and mother. RIP Jennifer.
This is one of the most *disgusting* examples of dereliction of duty I've ever come across. There are people here with blood on their hands. I wonder how they sleep at night.
Comfortably. If they felt shame or empathy this would not have happened.
My ex called the cops about me, lying sod, and they came with the blue lights on, 4 months later! Well done police scotland.
How on earth can the dispatcher hear that Susan's ex-husand attacked her mother, set her on fire, and then ask "Is your mum okay?"?!!??! Just incompetency at the highest level, I wonder if the family can file a civil case against the police force for failing them on multiple levels. What a horrific case, so terribly sad for Susan and her children. RIP Jennifer 🤍
I believe it was stated at the end that she had taken legal action against the police.
Yeah I throught the same. She is ok???? What the actual fuck.
And to keep telling her to "Calm Down". Are you kidding me?
@@toldyaso13 Yeah, that's just shitty training. I worked for over a decade as a 911 dispatcher in Canada. We used the same NAED system they use in England and it's extremely good. The #1 thing we're told is to never EVER tell someone to calm down. We're trained and certified on a specific course on how to de-escalate someone who's not panicking. We're not even allowed on the lines non-tandem/without a training until we exceed at it.
This 911 dispatcher needs to be fired.
@@shaldana I was actually wondering what the protocol was for calming someone down. Telling someone to calm down in a situation like that doesn't seem like it would be a particularly effective tactic.
This "he still is my father" is infuriating. People used to tell me that. So I asked back "and am I not his daughter when he does what he does to me?". A father is not sacred just for having had s3x starting the production of a child.
Exactly!
A sperm donar and a Dad are two completely different things.
I don’t understand the sentiment in general, but I do understand how an abused child who just went through an incredibly traumatic experience might not be able to process the grief correctly, and to think it’s what she wants to do. I wouldn’t be surprised if she regrets that for years to come. Grief can be very strange in that makes you do things that you don’t understand. As they say, it’s a process.
It’s so painful to listen to that last 999 call. Her mum passed knowing that she’s losing her life but is saving her daughter/granddaughter’s in the process. The police failed this family. I hope this serves as wake up call to not take reports like this lightly.
I really hate to be the bearer of bad news, but police and laws still do not take stalkers seriously to this day. You can even find a few people on youtube that post *daily* videos of their neighbors stalking them, and nothing substantial is done even with all of that evidence. If that doesn't get them arrested, what would? The cops just don't care. They just don't. It sucks majorly, spoken as a victim of stalking myself.
What an absolute failure from the police. I feel so angry. How are we supposed to protect ourselves then? Take matters in our own hands and create chaos? What kind of society that would create? A hell on earth. No amount of apology should be accepted. The police should be held accountable, end of.
❤️👍
Pretty much, the police are useless unless you ‘misgender’ someone. We all need to arm ourselves
Police were weaponized against us lonnng ago. They do not work for the people. They are not interested. They are paid to protect the establishments.
Look how they treated us during covid.
in the states they have guns, Thats why you get far more women killing men than here in England.
Someone trespasses in my house once and I called the police to have him removed, and they said they can't come out unless he harms someone.... n I told them that if he harmed anyone, that u wouldn't need to sned the police but an ambulance, for him! N they are liek oh bo then you'll be in trouble. Like wtf man. My sister ended up giving him a good hiding and he left lol
Miscommunication? 'I apologized to Susan and asked her to come speak to the new team'. You've gotta be flipping bonkers. Every officer, who in any way dealt with this diabolical case (from answering the 999 calls, wrote reports, arrested, released, to 'looking for') should be utterly ashamed of themselves and shamed by the people of GB. They failed time and time again and never once cared nor own their failures. This is unbearable.
I can only hope by 'talk to the new team' he meant to ask her to disclose her story to them as a learning experience for the team.
So much incompetence, negligence, laziness. Stalking laws have always been absolutely garbage, no matter what country we're in.
Facts
As someone whose been stalked,this is absolutely true.
That family was let down completely by the police. It's heartbreaking. 😔
How about “brandishing a potentially lethal weapon in a highly threatening manner”? WTH!?
What about it?
@@eadweard. I would imagine for the initial charges, since the only one that stuck was criminal damage to property.
I would consider myself pretty desensitized to the details of vicious crimes, but this one got to me in every way. My heart hurts for her family. This is terrifying.
Same !! This is hard listening to them 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
@leannebennett4490 I'm definitely gonna be up tonight thinking about them .. unstable men stopping at nothing to get revenge on the women that they perceive as having done them wrong isn't new.. but maaaaannn... they did everything they could to try to stop it.
I came to say the exact same thing, anytime I’m watching something it is true crime but none have struck a chord the way this did. It actually brought me to tears listening to Susan & Jennifer’s conversation on the police recording. If Essex police had taken the right steps & did what they were supposed to do this could have been prevented, without a shadow of doubt.
Dude, same. I can think of one other case that brought me to tears and gut punched me. It also had to do with a murder by fire, but it was a mother who lost her 2 boys by.... you guessed it... a psycho husband/bf/man.
So im also pretty hardened to the cruelty of the world as an avid true crime consumer.. but this one had me wrecked too. Her crying out to her mother after her face had been completely melted off in front of her very eyes was too much.
God rest her soul 🙏
both terrifying and heartbreaking...
Having grown up with an extremely abusive alcoholic father... I had a full-body visceral response listening to this case. My jaw is still clenched with anger at this man's actions.
As for the criminally negligent police and the way they have handled this case.. I hope the people responsible for handling her case have trouble sleeping at night for the rest of their lives. Because Susan and her daughter most definitely will...
I'm so sorry, dear Susan.
Even at its best the universe is but an indifferent audience to our suffering, and at its worst.. a constantly self-destructing ecosystem of bottomless rage, and extreme intentional cruelty.
I feel you 😰
I imagine those cops sleep just fine. In their mind, they didn’t do anything wrong.
@@molonlabe7809 I'm sure anything that gives you full-body, visceral response is 'garbage' in your eyes. You're too shallow to appreciate feelings of that nature.
You are so empty, that anytime you experience emotion, all you feel is discomfort. That's because you're not mentally equipped for it. So you just go around, insult strangers on the internet, troll, use word salads and accuse people of writing paragraphs because reading anything longer than a sentence hurts your brain.
Go troll someone else now, just so you can forget for a moment how much you hate yourself. Once again, I hope this comment gives you an even bigger full-body, visceral response. With people like you, I aim to provoke and not please, because people like you CAN'T be pleased. By anyone, or anything.
@@esteemedmortal5917 yeah, I guess you're right.
@@LifeisaHorrorMovie
I very much hope that you will be able to leave behind the horrors of your childhood, and thrive as an adult without the painful influence of a malevolent addict.
What you went through - and are still going through, by the looks of it - is horrific, so I can see why you would think life is a horror show.
If you are able to notice anything good in your life now, and acknowledge that it is good (beautiful, comforting, amazing, delightful, sweet, fun… anything like that), you may be able to turn your back and walk away from the horror show you’re still living with now.
It takes practice. Regular practice of seeing something good and acknowledging that good thing in your life. Old wisdom calls it “Count Your Blessings”. New wisdom calls it “Cognitive Behavioral Therapy” which is considered the most effective of all the talk therapies.
CBT teaches you how to shift your thinking. If you’re in a horror show, STOP-THINK-CHANGE your thoughts and feelings to something good. Anything. A favorite blanket or pair of shoes. A pet. Having a car, a house, a phone, food, clothes. A singing bird outside. A good neighbor. There are literally endless things to be thankful for, but only if you practice enough to make thinking good thoughts a habit.
If resentment shows up, change your thinking to anything good. Maybe you have strength of character because you came out of a horrific childhood without becoming an abuser yourself. Celebrate that! Congratulate yourself for turning bad into good. That is the essence of living a good life, even if you are constrained in some ways. Your thoughts are yours to control.
Find things that you are proud of. Your intelligence, your beauty whether external or internal, your kindness, loyalty… anything and everything good that you can think of.
And after awhile, you will find that your life is better, because you truthfully think and feel that it is better. And build on that.
The Greater Good Science Center, out of UC Berkeley, studies this exact thing. The benefits of gratitude are scientifically proven to help people cope and thrive. Find the website and sign up for the newsletter, or download some their many good resources.
I found them at a really dark time that went on for years and I felt like I was drowning. I have gained so much - at no cost - and continue to find value in their studies and applications.
Remember that your soul is a spark of the Great Spirit (or whatever you do or don’t call it) which breathes life into this literally marvelous, magnificent Universe.
Very best wishes to you.
This is so gross, and I can easily imagine how the police were talking about these "hysterical women" who were constantly calling and bothering them. All countries really need to start using reverse violence alarms in cases where a restraining order has been broken.
For those reading it who doesn't know what a reverse violence alarm is, it's electronic monitoring by police that alerts them if the stalker goes where they're not allowed to go, for instance the victim's house, work, school or anywhere else the stalker isn't allowed to visit. Think ankle monitor that goes off when they enter an area instead of leaving an area. My country is working on it, but it's taking too long.
Exellent idea.
Thank you so much for this; I have a tech (software) background and it’s bizarre to me that police forces are now often heavily reliant upon the use and analysis of technology in order to investigate and solve homicide cases but that tech is not adequately deployed to effectively help protect victims and prevent severe and deadly violence.
What an awful human being! Killing her mum so he could hurt her and take something precious from her as one final swipe at susan, a bitter little man who couldn't handle his wife wouldn't take his nonsense anymore! All the healing and love to susan and her family ❤️ RIP to jennifer.
I think he believed the mother was behind everything that went wrong and encouraged her daughter to divorce
@@kamkam22100 Nah, he just wanted to take his rage out on anyone, and she was the only person he could find, it mad it even better for him that it would hurt his ex wife.
@@kamkam22100That wouldn't surprise me. When we left my abusive ex, he kept demanding to know which of my friends made me do it. As if I was incapable of deciding for myself that I was no longer going to tolerate the hell we were living in. I guess, for some people, when they've got away with being abusive for so many years, they can't fathom that their victims might actually find the strength to leave.
My god, this is the most horrific thing I've heard in a very long time. Those 911 calls are absolutely haunting...shame on authorities for their response!
My ex was like this and the law really let me down. The judge even forced my daughter to see him despite objections from cafcass and dozens of police reports.
Jennifer, what a lady. Fought for her life and so very sad it was taken from her so brutally.
The police were NEGLIGENT! Women suffer way too much from psycho men who don't measure up. And the police let it happen. How irresponsible!
Measure up to what, your enormous gunt?
exactly. and 9 times out of 10, female victims get blamed for what happened, as if they're responsible for making sure the men don't commit a crime?? as if that isn't the polices job?? is reminds me of a woman who was murdered by her ex husband when he was on bail and she was at work, and she got victim blamed for going to work when she knew he was out on bail. Like what the hell???
And the thing is..that we can’t take matters into our own hands either.
💯
Male police officers rarely take female victims of domestic violence with too much seriousness
Seventeen days. 💔 This is tragic, and it’s ridiculous that it is so often the case. A woman and her children and family are tortured by an ex-partner, and nothing can be done, until it’s too late. Tragic.
They literally tell you they can’t help you unless he has physically hurt you CHANGE THE FUCKING LAW THEN
@@TrueCriminwithT👍 ich weiss nicht, wie es in GB ist, aber in Deutschland ist der Taeterschutz immer noch besser, aks der Opferschutz?!😢
Vigilante justice is what society is being pushed to. Take the law in our own hands when no one will help.
The 999 calls have me in complete tears. The police had every opportunity to help but chose not to until it was too. This case is absolutely GUTWRENCHING. The complacency of domestic violence all over the world is absolutely sickening.
How absolutely heartbreaking 💔 Jennifer was the epitome of a loving mum even in her final moments. She comforted her daughter even though she must have been suffering, absolutely devastating.
I'm so angry at how they don't take stalking seriously . This could have been prevented
there’s a saying that you don’t die when you die you die when your name is last spoken/thought about, i believe this channel and many other true crime channels keep the names of victims alive forever! thank you for all the work you do.
Yeah, i never liked that saying. People still say Hitler & Charles Manson...
I am absolutely disgusted & furious with the failure of the police. This was preventable and the fact that he killer her mom in retaliation for breaking up with him & she had too watch the immediate after effects is unbelievably horrific.
Jesus christ if this guy isn't a clear example of a violent abuser who should have been arrested after the first time he went against his bail then I don't know who would be. What a total failure of the police. In my opinion the officers who didn't act (when it is their job to act) should have been fired and the entire agency should be retrained on how to properly protect victims and arrest violent abusers.
But he had threatened her, she even told the 911 operator that. Even the daughter told them that. Epic failure of the authorities. This is the main reason why so many people have been and continue to be killed from domestic violence because its never been taken seriously.
And you have to think, if she had a gun and shot him while he was attacking her mother, I bet the police would have arrested her immediately.
It amazes me how many of these stories u hear when the victim did everything possible to keep herself and her children safe and it’s the authorities that let them down😢
It makes me sick that the law protects criminals over innocent people! What’s the point of courts if they are only there to protect criminals, let violent people out into society. Anyone with a brain knows that they aren’t protected, even though the police do their best.
That’s why I maintain law abiding citizens should be able to arm themselves
Even when they set conditions and said criminal flouts them, it’s like ‘meh’. But we’re supposed to trust that that person is safe to release on bail.
The police clearly didn't do their best in this case!
An absolute fucking disgrace by the police!! My heart goes out to the family!!
O.m.g!! That's one of the most horrific cases I've ever heard. I had pure anxiety all the way through it. That poor family.
Oh man, this was awful. The 999 call was so hard to hear 😭😭😭 terrible.
The police need to be held accountable for this. Absolutely shocking.
😢
This is horrific. I hope Susan and her family are able to find peace. Thank you, another excellent video from the TrulyCriminal team
Why do people have to die before anything is done? When they actually start to care? Its sickening
The moment he broke his bail conditions, he should have been arrested. Like, come one.
This is a horrific, shocking and harrowing case. Thank you for relating it in such a compassionate way.
I had a very similar experience with my ex. Drugs and feeling very much like the victim when I tried to move on. Thankfully I had a great police force and Woman’s Aid made sure they kept pushing. They installed locks and markers on the house, but my ex even accused the police force of sleeping with me so a whole corruption investigation had to take place, I wasn’t of course. He vandalised my car, left dead birds on the doorstep, sent threatening messages, and spouted derogatory posts on social media. It was awful. Time in prison sorted him out plus a non harressment order. I cried at what this family went through, absolutely horrific.
Thank you for sharing. I’m going through this and am moving to another state this month. Ur post gives me hope.
The force is always reviewing their response after someone dies and every single time it’s the same! Lots of useless talk and very little action, absolutely pathetic
Well, he couldnt have made it any more obvious he was a danger to others. It's unreal that he was let out on bond, even.
Dude busted through the door like a coked out Kool-Aid Man. Lord have mercy, they should have been keeping the family protected or something/under surveillance?
Ill never understand treating your partner or children like opposition 😢
OHH YEAAAAAA!!!
When did he bust through the door? And of course he's going to have a bond due to what he was charged with.
It's not about opposition. It's a need for absolute power & control & scapegoating your family for your own inadequacy .
THE best true crime channel on CZcams hands down ! Great coverage and great job ! Truly chilling stuff every time .
Disturban is good too
@@LondonSadam777he’s okay .. his uk cases are not that great
When will police see that stalking is a deadly behavior pattern? How many have to die? When will there be accountability on the police's part?
There's not much police can do if the legal system declines to pursue charges. Even when they're brought the sentences are a joke. In some cases they only serve to make the abuser more angry/aggressive. It's the system and laws that need to change.
@@playingwithstory247agreed. Police need to give ONE warning and charge after one breach of that warning.
When people stop accusing random people simply existing of "stalking" them.
Publicize the names of the authorities that ignored this woman. Call the department out!
An horrific case. Reminds me of the Alice Ruggles murder. It also makes me realize that the UK, England in particular, isn't the magical place I've made up in my mind. R.I.P. Mrs. Cronin and my condolences to Susan, her daughter, and their family as they're left in the aftermath.
Oh, I do hope you're not in the US. The school shootings, gun crime that exceeds all other countries... The USA is shameful in its determination to be armed because of the misunderstanding of the constitution.
How on earth do you balance 'my bloody rights' with children being shot??
UK had one school shooting. Measures meant it NEVER happened again. I do not understand.
Alice Ruggles' death is also a complete failure by police.
So horrific and sad. 😢
The UK is on it's damn knees
I also immediately thought of Alice ruggles and the Banaz case...its haunting and horrific
That's immediately where my mind went. It feels like UK authorities still don't understand how serious stalking/harassment is.
What disgraceful police !😢They ought to be ashamed of themselves 😡
😢😭😢😭My God what a horrific crime - I hope Jennifer is resting in peace, and that her daughter and grandchildren are somehow able to cope after living through such life altering events... The comment the cop made about them being "a much stronger force now than five years ago" is mindboggling - how is that meant to help in anyway? Five years ago, this family desperately needed your help and every time a frightening call came in begging for help, they were let down EVERY SINGLE TIME !!! ABSOLUTELY APPALLING!! This man should have been lock up for the safety of everyone...
I dont understand why the police don't take domestic violence cases serious. Like this happens way too much! Horrible.
Because the majority of women stay and waste police time, they get the person in court, and even then, the women still go back, and not only do they go back but protect their abusers. Police hate that.
If you look up the statistics, I believe a significant percentage of DV perpetrators are current or former police officers - and that's just what's reported. You'll find cases where someone was trying to get away from their abusive cop boyfriend, but the rest of the squad has that cop's back and just wants to enable them - and that's just the cases that are found out about. The process to become a cop and the system at large is catered to the violent and the power-hungry. This is why some people say ACAB (All Cops Are Bastards) - because by becoming a cop, one is inherently enabling the system that encourages violence against innocents.
Over 40%of police are abusers .@@gardenofsn5955
Wow and Wow. So what did he have to do to be taken seriously? All officers who ignored should have to face the family, explain, apologise and provide compensation.
If I was one of those officers I would have to resign - my conscious would have no peace!
Thoughts and prayers to all the family and those affected
I can’t even watch this clusterfk anymore. How many 999 calls does it take for someone in critical danger to get life saving help??? Bloody hell, it’s time for vigilantes. This did not need to happen to this poor family.
I have no words!! what kind of world do we live in that nothing ever f….ing gets done :(
First my hearts breaks for the family. Second it’s so hard when people aren’t held accountable for their actions. There’s such an injustice when they are walking around and our loved ones are not.
Thankyou for reporting this case so well, I'm just gobsmacked at the STUPIDITY and negligence of the police.
Absolutely horrific. When I heard that last call it really choked me up
Happy belated birthday Alice! I saw the post on FB!❤
Thank you! :) 🖤
That poor family to make so many calls to police and seems none were taken seriously. Poor Jennifer, what a horrific death
It's always like this. To imprison these type of people, they always need something big to happen, an innocent life to be taken away despite all the red flags he'd been showing. I'm so done... idk how lawyers could even work on their cases to WIN the cases for these criminals.
I love you guys thanks for the consistency. You guys do a great job covering cases that aren't over covered on youtube. So professional♡
oh my god the fact that Jennifer’s last words was telling her daughter how much she loves her… I can’t 😢 fuck the police that absolutely failed this family
All of that and i didn't go into tears until you hear her telling her Mom she loved her and she's her best friend! There is no Devil...only people! We're the only species with the capability and willingness to hurt someone else to this degree.
I pray Susan & her daughters succeed in suing Essex police being completely incompetent & reckless for how much they failed. Absolutely heartbreaking.
Excellent coverage. What a tragic case.
One boyfriend I had eventually started to get abusive, and in of those moments of him being verbally abusive he actually blamed my mother and I was so shocked because she was never present and always accepting and welcoming of him. It scared me because there was literally no reason for him to feel or say these things about my mum.
I imagine on hearing this , it opened your eyes that it was all about “controlling” you..Hope you dumped him there and then ..
unexplainable and terrifying...rest in peace, Jennifer.
This is horrific 😢 the police should be held accountable and I hope this case haunts them forever. This poor family
I totally agree. They are too busy taking the knee or arresting people silently praying or they are doing the macerena at gay pride, there is no time to deal with real thugs and psychopaths i.e deal with actual criminals. Like everything in this hell hole of a country, the police force is no longer fit for for purpose and as always the people to blame are at the top.
Horrific crime. Must say how amazing this video is, so well put together, really impactful. Well done 👏.
Devastating, you can feel their despair increasing in every phone call...
The authorities are to be blamed 100% for this.
You hear these stories all too often. Multiple calls to authorities and inaction by said authorities leads to horrific tragedies like this one. So terrible.
I'm not surprised by the polices attitude. A friend of mine (still in the UK) was being stalked and harassed by her neighbour, and he repeatedly tried to smash her door in. The police basically told her that she was just being hysterical by calling them so many times about it.
I am so utterly disgusted and heartbroken by the way this case was handled that I need a bit of time to properly digest the utter injustice of it before I can comment further.my heart breaks for those left behind and what they witnessed after repeatedly asking for help.
Those poor kids have paid the highest price for the police and their negligence
I'm so glad Susan has Mike by her side that she can lean on! I also just wanted to add that the editing in this video was absolutely top notch! The special effects used around 26:50 was really well done.
Great reporting and narration.
Watching this makes me so mad with the police, this could of been prevented had they done what they where supposed to do in the first place 🤬
The police absolutely failed this family. 999 calls are heartbreaking.
This is so sad and frustrating. I cannot believe how the authorities dealt with this case. How many calls you need to make to arrest someone or make him a dangerous person?
Ya, didn't have enough " manpower" to send over an officer. If Susan was a judge, police Chief or another high profile authority in government, there'd be a cop on every floor of the house, Mom's house and 24 hr protection for the two girls. What an embarrassing look for that Police Department.
Appalling response from police & that lady on ambulance was so unempathetic & cold! This family was failed by justice system.
What the actual hell were the police doing? I knew before it was said that none of them would be punished either, just some re-training and box ticking and it's all over and done with for them. Must be nice to forget so easily. Glad she sued them, but bet that didn't go anywhere either. Absolutely disgusting.
When l was watching this series it made me very angry at the authorities. You could even hear the way they respond on the phone, they seem uninterested. How can police officers handle a threatening case like this with such unprofessional behaviour. 😠😡
This case has always made my blood boil.
I hope everybody that made the executive decisions around this are racked with guilt. A disgraceful failure of care.
This is absolutely horrific. This is the first one in a while that made me cry.
The police are pathetic when it comes to stalking and dealing with lunatics like this.
Shocking story. Only im very pleased you choose this story to share with us! As a victim of domestic violence i absolutely know how vital it is to learn lessons. May that be the police or yourself. Thank you for telling this story with such respect 🙏 ❤
This is an amazing channel. I love the narrative, always easy to listen to and to follow. On so many levels the Police failed this family. I guess lessons will be learnt, until the next time. RIP Jennifer, may the Angels give you wings to fly
I was stranger stalked in the 80s, when a lot less was recognized about stalking. By the 2000s, there was a lot more known about stalkers and domestic violence. That the police kept downgrading the case and not collating the reports is shocking and lethal. It's so sad to hear these sorts of cases repeated, again and again, while the police ignore and allow this to happen.
How fn dumb is that emergency responder???
Her and the Essex police should be sued for lack of duty, aiding a criminal and what ever else fits the crime.
Karma is on its way!!!
Stalking is one of THE MOST dangerous crimes! They stew alone, obsess, get angrier, and more delusional! They often feel like they have nothing to lose, so they will go to extremes! Police never seem to take it seriously enough! Even after all of the cases that end in murder!
Wow. Those calls were harrowing! As an Italian living in the U.K. I have observed people be way too polite to each other, when in fact, the situation is serious. The police here were a shit show and the calls were handled like a mere sales transaction. No way would the police be telling me that they didn’t have enough officers to go to my mother’a house when my child was also present, when a deranged man was threatening to kill them. Just wow.
Watching in stunned silence. Respect and love from NZ ❤💯
i have always loved your channel because most of the stories you share i've never seen covered by anyone else. i appreciate your efforts to always share important stories of EVERYONE. this is so tragic and people can learn from this. thank you ❤
I swear, laws are made with no inclination to protect victims. Christ…..
I know I’ll be taking my SA to the grave, rather than report it. I have absolutely no faith in the police. They don’t take victims seriously and nothing will ever change. I might aswell just keep my mouth shut and bury it deep down. When he found my facebook and tried to contact me I moved cities, completely changed my image just in case there’s chance I’ll ever bump into them. It may not be much but I pray for any survivors out there of stalking or abuse, keep your head up, you’re still here and you’re not alone. ❤
This shows a need to bypass the police who will never act in cases of abuse like this. We need people to come together to protect people from sick individuals like this man.
Daughter and mum’s last moments brought tears to my
