"I just remember his hands being everywhere": The Office star
Julie Fernandez says she was groped by Jimmy Savile on Jim 'll Fix It - www.mirror.co.uk
Well we have recently heard about JIMMY, as he is all over the news. we all knowthat he was a twisted and gross but I think
what he did was sick and disgusting. It would have been better if his secret
came out years before he died, because the media is creating and giving MORAL
PANIC to the society. Nothing can be raped as what he did was just too sick, I
feel sorry for all the victims but they should have just spoken before so they
could have got him arrested. Writing news about him wont do anything as he is
dead.

leave to appeal against the decision that Ms Shoesmith was unfairly sacked.
5 August 2011: Jason Owen, now 39, is released from prison
after serving three years of a six-year sentence. My views on the Baby P's case: I think that Steven Barker and Jason Owen should be jailed for life because what they did was just too disturbing and disgusting, they just don't deserve to be released they are better off locked in jail, because they are likely to commit the same crime again with another baby. To prevent them from commiting those crimes they have a better place in jail. From a
functionalist perspective the mother fell for her boyfriend this is because she
had less social bonds from the society this is probably because she was a
single mother living alone and she was so blind that she didn't know what her
boyfriend was doing to her baby.

this link is useful as the video tells you
about Stephen's murder and the people who murdered Stephen should be jailed.
The Stephen Lawrence case: how it changed Britain
"It was seminal," says Imran Khan, who represented
the family at the inquiry. "People forget what it was like living in Britain in
1993.
"There had been three or four racial murders in
south-east London.
I was working in the anti-racist field and what I was getting constantly was
this brick wall from police officers and other agencies saying 'look, this is
not about race'. It was almost impossible to get those in authority to accept
that race existed as a problem.
"What the Lawrence
case did was it made race mainstream. It made it something people had to
recognise, acknowledge and accept. Before that, it was something that the left
and liberals talked about as a fringe issue. Now suburban England had to accept that race
existed."
Stephen's murder case changed Britain as people who are from an
ethnic background have got equal rights and they are treated equally as an
individual. No one can away with Institutional racism and hate crime. Due to
the laws an individual cannot get discriminated against and this applies at
work, goods and services etc. even if an individual get discriminated, that
individual have the right to seek redress.
The Moors murders were performed by Myra Hindley and Ian
Brady, their victims were children between the age of 10 to 17. Myra and Ian killed 5
children between July 1963 and October 1965, their names were Pauline Reade,
John Kilbride, Keith Bennett, Lesley Ann Downey and Edward Evans, and all of
these children were sexually assaulted. Myra
and Ian are known as the Moor murderers because the victims were found in
graves dug on Saddleworth Moor.
Three bodies were found, Keith Bennett which was the fourth victim is still not found as the investigators suspect that the body is somewhere in the Saddleworth Moor. Hindley is 'the most evil woman in britian'. She made appeals against her life sentece in prison as she said, that she is changed and will not cause danger to the society but she was not released. Hindley died in prison at the age of 60 due to a heart attack in november 2002, she was the Britian's longest serving female prisoner.
Brady is in Ashworth Hospital, he says that he wants to die but his request was refused lots of time.
This documentary is useful as it shows how Hindley Met Brady, this is worth watching.
Shakilus Townsend was murdered in 2008. He was 'Honey Trap' by a girl Samantha Joseph who he was crazy about.
Sakilus was murdered by Samantha, Danny and his gang members in 2008
Samantha was seeing Shakilus and Danny McLean (who was a member of the local Shine My Nine (SMN) gang). Danny killed Shakilus and Samantha helped him as she plan to meet Shakilus.
BBC Three made a factual film called MY MURDER which was based on Shakilus Townsend murder.
This is a short version of the movie but it is useful as the clip will tell you about Shakilus' story.
7 people were found guilty of Shakilus Murder in 2009 they were people from the SMN gang. Samantha is serving a minimum of 10 years in prison for her part in his murder and Danny McLean is jailed for 15 years.
This story is heartbreaking and heartless because the girl helped Danny with the murder. Shakilus was murdered in a very violent way as he was beaten with a baseball bat and stabbed to death which is very crude and vile. He suffered for 10 hours with a lot of pain, when someone called an ambulance it was too late as he died. This is a tragic story and caused a lot of pain to Shakilus' family and friends.
My Murder is a very strong film and sends a message to people and especially young people that everyone's life is important and no one has the right to take someone else's life for a reason which isn't relevant. This documentary is a good way of preventing knife crime.
