The arrested couple

[Legz]

The ones who have been on the run for 8 weeks....finally found and now refusing to say what has happened to the baby or where it is....absolute f***ing scum of the earth, oxygen thieves of the highest order. How????...HOW????....can anybody give so less of a **** about another human, a defenceless 2 month old baby...their baby!!!!

 

[NorthumberlandBoro]

At least one of them must be a psychopath.

This is shocking only heard about it for the first time earlier today. Now it’s escalated to the point where it sound like they’ve just dumped the baby in a bush.

She had the baby in their car early in January.. then they set fire to the car and they’ve been travelling round sleeping in a tent?!?! Utterly bizzare! She’s quite well off apparently too!

Makes no sense? Has there been some underlying mental health issue?

Why not just leave the baby at a hospital?

I know that this is morbid information, but one of the most at risk groups of people in this country is a child under the age of 2 who lives with their birth mother and her partner.

Exactly, abnormal behaviour.

You'd think so, pretty much any mother who neglects their baby or doesn't seek maternity care tends to be suffering mental health issues.

Remember just how cold it was when they first went missing after she had the baby? It was that really cold snap. I hope that they were not sleeping rough at that point.

 

[Jonny Ingbar]

They've both had a chequered life, albeit in entirely different ways.

I'd suspect both have some sort of personality disorder.

The problem I have is even if she does have mental health issues....what about the dad?? Surely if your partner has developed any kind of health problems (physical or mental) you would do your up most to help them, not go on the run with them and put your child at risk.

Well he's a convicted sex offender so I suspect his decision making isn't built around the wellbeing of others

Look at his past

I gather they were

He was a convicted sex offender in the U.S., just why the hell did we let him into this country ?

Think he was deported from there - as he was from here originally??

He was a child and is British and was deported here. Nothing is as simple as it sounds.

 

[red_harrington]

It's really sad. My guess is the baby died and they gave it what they thought would be a humane burial in the woods somewhere. They obviously don't want to be a part of society, so they don't want anybody to find it.

Let's hope it's something along those lines. The alternatives don't bear thinking about.

I know even if it was "natural". Causes its still tragic, but simpler to understand.

In any event is an awful situation.

 

[Acklam_Lad]

Just utterly sickening that they have acted like this when there are couples in this world that would give everything to be able to have a child.

Whatever happens I sincerely hope they don’t see the light of day for a very long time

Gave both my kids an extra hug tonight for that little baby
