Emma what’s your email address please?
This case makes my blood boil. Happened close to my home, and I knew the horrible boys that killed him:( I feel for his family taken way to young and in such a horrible way .
It infuriates me when people say "coppers don't care about rural crime!" My Sister is Police, specialising in rural crime and its ME she calls when she's been beaten, hurt, spat on, bitten and is generally worried about how her kids will react 😢
@@betlea8070 Tell her to work at Asda 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@betlea8070 Or request that she is allowed to carry a Taser. Why be a copper 🤷♀️🤷♂️ . If all you gonna do is bitch at you . Don't make any sense that . That woukd be like a gunsmith bìtching to his family about how many deaths his weapons have caused 😳
@@thedesolateone8260 are you kidding me?? 😡😡😡😡
When she goes to work at Asda with all her mates, who is going to protect you??
@@thedesolateone8260 no one said ANYTGING about whinging! If my baby sister can't speak to her big sis about her worries, who the feck is she supposed to speak to??
Everything that Emma does is gripping, authentic, compassionate and deeply insightful. Looking forward to this
Perfectly-put
The way those boys acted during the trial and being taken in is disgusting. So sad. My heart goes out to his family and wife.
This happened about a mile from me, I remember driving home from work that day and seeing all news crews, and you could see what looked like a blood skid mark from where they dragged him, utterly disgusting what they did to him.
Holy hell! This is why I kept my sister away 😢
Oh dear, finally one that has effected me personally as I live nearby and have friends who knew PC Harper 😔 Interested to hear your take on it. Makes my blood boil to this day...
Me too! I will never forget the smirks on the faces of those vile thugs when they got sent down. His poor wife, my heart breaks for her.
They got away with murder.
I’ve gone in to a LOT of detail as this man deserves to be known as the hero he was. His wife is also unbelievable x
@@cwells5576 It was utterly heartbreaking. Seeing his funeral, with officers in tears, was just awful. His wife is an amazing woman.
💙💙
This one will be hard for me because I have a personal connection to PC Harper. I can’t wait to hear your take Emma. My sister is a very good friend of PC Harpers wife and I know a lot of details about the case. Such a tragic and unnecessary waste of life from a very well loved member of the wider community. Andy had personally advised my sister and her husband about home security in his own time…he went above and beyond for his community. Also Mrs Harper is a real hero for how she has campaigned and make sure her husband did not die in vane.
Addition…those kids absolutely knew that PC Harper was attached to the car. They would’ve heard his initial screams and the way they drove indicates knowledge that he was being dragged along. There is no doubt that they would’ve seen him and apparently they made jokes about him being attached to them and they turned the music up so they couldn’t hear if PC Harper was screaming.
It’s so horrific to think about what he went through, what panic and fear he must’ve felt before he lost consciousness. It’s hard for me to even think about so I can’t imagine how his wife and family must feel 💔
@@cathbooth1980 His wife Lissie is an amazing woman. She has done her best to turn something so horrific into a positive and has been campaigning for Andrew’s Law, which calls for life sentences for anyone who kills emergency workers
@@willowmoon3461 she sounds like such an incredible human being ♥️ xx
@@willowmoon3461 life sentence for all murders . But they weren't convinced off murder
Just awful love to pc harpers wife and family always x
The courts should have the discretion to add 5 years to any moron that laughs, acts up and disrupts the court proceedings. They would soon stop that nonsense!!! If they don't well they are serving a lot of time. They also have to show remorse to get parole - I would suggest that they have to show remorse at the time of sentencing or it affects their parole = parole refused !!! RIP PC Andrew Harper.
Yes this should most definitely be done and it would be nice of these people were put in solitary. These type of cases I want to see genuine retribution and justice where the person culpable is punished more than just being put inside where they can make friends and earn rewards.
It's called contempt of court and should be used more.
Laughing in court thats awful ... horrible brats ...
I totally agree. All the scumbags that sneer, joke and laugh. Should get 5 years for EACH time they do it...so they'd never get out and we'd all actually be more safe.
NA THEY DESERVE LIFE WITHOUT PAROLE FOR 30 YEARS. TAKING THE LIFE IN THE COMMISSION OF A CRIME DESREVES THE SAME SETENCE
This one made me physically ill. Even after Arthur and Star, this made me cry.
Same here, I couldn’t watch it until the end, it’s unbelievable these kind of humans exist among us
Sickening, that poor guy.
Not comparable
Thanks for covering this case Emma, it truly is like something out of a horror movie, it's hard to wrap your head around what that poor man suffered.
😢😢
We really need some merch with “is it just me?” On it 😂 love your work Emma!
That’s coming early new year. Pete has been designing them this past few days. Great minds 😉😉 lol xx
I'm in on the merch... Hoodie please Emma
Me to emnas the best ... shes in my top 5 you tubers now ive found emmas you tube channel.... ive always admired her tv work but im so happy shes on you tube with her own channel shel tell the victims of crime do them justice v peace out have a happy new year 2022 v
@@EmmaKennyTV im ordering mine next week and the window sticker x ive now watched all of ur videos so keep re watching my favourite untill new stuff is out lol 😆 xx
im crying, this poor poor young man, theres no way they didnt know what was on the back :C rip PC Andrew Harper
One of the most unsettling and sad cases I've ever heard - told with so much respect and compassion as always Emma ✨
Fantastic video Em, people need to know how awesome PC Harper and his absolute warrior of a wife actually are!
Too many crime channels focus on the criminal and the real victims are forgotten, this is NEVER the case with Em’s channel.
As the wife of a police officer, I worry about his safety every single day - I can’t begin to imagine what poor Lizzy is going through.
Having lost a couple of colleagues on duty I appreciate and know how they feel however, this is probably an even worse. Way to witness and discover what has happened. You never ever forget that feeling or experience. I was retired from the Met. Police after a couple of serious injuries on duty, later was almost fatal. Therefore when these occur it is horrific.
I have to say I had/have no time for travellers.
It's not fair to judge an entire group of people based on a few "bad apples" in the bunch. Being a former police officer, you should know this better than most. I'm relieved to hear that you are no longer in the capacity of "protecting and serving" with a mindset such as yours.
@@robertklimeck1918 you obviously have never been involved with this group of people who are actually hated by real ‘travellers/gypsies. These people are career criminals and tax dodgers. The grief I had been through with this lot is no surprise I am not a fan. My injuries caused my retirement and I am so heartened to see your support for the serious injuries/attacks on police officers who risk their lives for. You every day. Thanks i
So true Emma, when I lost my husband part of me died, which Ill never get back. I feel so much for PC Harpers wife.
This brought me to tears. May he rest in peace bless him. Absolutely horrifying. This will stay with me 😔
It’s such an important case to cover and bless his family. Sadly I can’t watch as it’s too triggering but I know you will do it in a respectful and compassionate way Emma.
How is it triggering?
@@sharonsciba5647 - PTSD - I’m a paramedic.
This is horrific. I can’t imagine what that poor lad went through 💔
His wife's impact statement, i felt every word. Painful.
Wow. My brother is a police officer here in north America. And whew..... Thank you for this one. I would be slathering my voice like a manic if this happened to him. Thank you, as always for your couth and kindness.
Emma, l so hope you read this. I lost my mother nearly a month ago, it will be a month on Christmas Day. It was unexpected, though she had Alzheimer’s she passed from pneumonia. I’m utterly devastated, demolished, and very much alone. Dreading Christmas Day. I’ve been saving your videos to Watch Later so I have something to occupy myself with that day. Even though these subjects are so tragic, your manner and your empathy make me feel less lost. Thank you🖤
So sorry for your loss 💙
Hey Deidre L, how are you? Just wanted to say how sorry I am for your loss. I lost my Mum quite a few years and know how hard and heavy that loss is ❤️
16 years for killing someone
🇬🇧 laws never fail to leave me speechless in their leniency
Another excellent deep dive into another appalling crime - I have never been in favour of capital punishment, but the detail into which you go, Emma, you are not only changing my mind but making me think it should be public and very long drawn out 🤬
I’m sitting here just shaking my head and saying “oh my God!” repeatedly! How absolutely horrendous!
This one is going to hit hard as it's extremely close to home. I personally would NOT watch or listen to anyone but Emma on this, and ever increasing topics.
I know that Emma will deal with this honestly, factually and do both Andrew and Lissie justice.
I cannot either, but I trust Emma. I am already shaking and angry this happened
@@venomangelic6327 it's a very emotive issue. It's OK to feel like this. It's all very fresh and relevant. Took me a couple of attempts to get through it. Emma did both Lissie and Andrew justice, with her usual combination of compassion and facts 💙💙💙
Thank you for another outstanding video Emma. I hope his family are healing, his beautiful wife should be proud of what she's accomplished. R.I.P P.C Harper 🌹
We must be unlucky where I live because we always seem to get this tiny, tiny, tiny amount of travellers that are just vile!
The travellers we get are mostly vile. I think the newer breed are mostly disgusting. They have no respect. The filth they leave where they illegally camp has to be paid for by tax payers from council tax which they don't pay.
I am glad they have made Harpers law. I have a nephew who is a police officer who works at Thames Valley Police.
The complete disregard for human life these individuals have astounds me. As ever, thank you for telling this case in such a compassionate, empathic way. My thoughts are with PC Harper’s family, friends & colleagues. 🙏🏻
Emma you have done such respect to Andrew Harper by telling his story in such a detailed yet kind and respectful way. Thank you.
The way you cover theses stories is amazing I love how honest you are and how you just want justice for the poor people and families who fall short to theses monsters
I wish a new law would be brought in for those accused/found guilty who openly mock their victim's families by being cold hearted and laughing in the face of authority, never mind bloody falling asleep, that 10 years is automatically added to their sentence for their blatant disrespect. I can't help wondering if it were one of their family dragged to their deaths would they be outraged as they seem to have so little regard for a person's life and no accountability, they didn't get a harsh enough sentence in my opinion
Absolutely disgusting this case! I still remember the news headlines about it, i was shocked then and upset for his beautiful wife and his family. To hear it again is just as disgraceful and shocking! I hope these pathetic evil monsters are suffering on a daily basis. Thank you Emma for another great episode of Emma Kennys Cult. Have a great Christmas all the best for 2022.
Emma you never need to defend what you say, sometimes you back peddle to make sure what you say is understood! Anyone who cares about your content knows your heart is in the right place!
Like i said in an earlier comment the trauma you must go through and endure just to provide us with this content is enough. We all appreciate that in your way you are giving the victims justice! ❤❤❤
I feel so bad for PC Harpers colleague. That poor man, the growing feeling of dread and horror he would of felt as he followed their trail. 😭😭 and his poor wife 💔 I hope with all my heart she will one day find some peace. Bless her, RIP Harps.
I am here from Mr Ballen's video of this crime. A commenter mentioned your in depth telling of the story.
I had heard of this case but didn't know the details of it. Heartbreaking and terrifying. Thanks for uploading these videos Emma xx
So much respect too pc Harper 👮🏻♂️what an evil event
Thanks Emma great reporting compassionate & eye opening 🚔
I hadn't heard of this case my lord its so hard to listen to how horrific it must have been the worst moment of his partners life I can only hope he passed out from the pain so he had some relief
Brill Emma ! Found myself with tears rolling towards the end love your programmes
I love your story telling. You have so much passion.
Beautiful, beautifully told, heart renching at times. Thank you x
Ah man this is going to be a really hard one. Not that the recent videos haven’t been truly horrific and those people should get treated the same way they’ve treated defenceless children (blood boils) it never gets any easier to hear these stories and I’m still shocked and mortified by what some supposed “human beings” can do. I just pray that those souls have found peace and know that they were loved. No one can hurt you anymore.❤️
Such an awful case. Presented well and with compassion
Another great episode, great work 👏 👍
Once again you have done amazing justice to the case and especially the victim. You frankly rock!
I listen regularly to your reports and thank you for them. This is the first where I had to take a pause and sob for this poor man. A brave hero, sending light and strength to his wife, family and friends 🙏🏻
Very close to home - it rocked our local villages. Thank you for doing Harps proud with this case. Devastating 😞
I feel so sorry for his family especially his wife. I had never heard this story before so I looked it up on the internet before this video. The way those boys acted after they killed him was a disgrace. They were so cold and no remorse. I hope they are "punished in jail" if you know what I mean.
Don't you think it's a sad reflection on our system when we're hoping real justice to be handed out by prisoners? 😢
sadly not, I've served time and even girls who got sentenced for attacking paramedics were looked up to in certain wings. There is a pecking order in prison. I was inside with Mairead Phillpot and girls chanted behind her "Burn Baby Burn, Disco Inferno" these girls are put in a specialist wing
This was so respectful and extremely informative, my guilty pleasure is your channel, RIP PC Harper.
Emma, this is my first comment but I saw you on your ‘serial killer next door’ tour and have been hooked ever since. In fact, I purposely haven’t caught up to the recent videos so that I always have a video of yours to watch whenever I fancy! You have my dreeeeam job and no other true crime has captured me in the way you do. You speak so eloquently and are so full of compassion although this does not overshadow your insight, thoughts and ultimately your well researched and thought through videos. You have a real way with words and you can tell that the victim is always at the forefront of your thoughts. I also love your ‘judgement’ and the fact that you say what we’re all thinking, without shying away. In fact your “is it just me?..” moments are one of my particular highlights and yep- it’s never just you! Well done to you and Pete and long may you continue doing what you’re doing so that long may I continue to be thoroughly educated, informed and entertained xxxxx
I have been following you since you began your true crime Chanel and this is my first time to comment. I want to Thank you so much for your balanced coverage of the travelling community. You really are a breath of fresh air. I lived as a “new age traveller” for 10 years, I settled back into a house 17 years ago when my son was 3 for educational purposes. The community is vast and like any has an array of different characters.
Also. I have worked as a well-being coach for the past 10 years and find your appy app very useful
New here stumbled across you today but love your channel already, going to watch some more videos while I get through this night shift
Emma I cried when you explained how PC Harper came away from the Seat car. My Dad in 1992 was dragged behind his own car on the side of the M62 motorway. He ended up in Preston hospital in an induced coma for almost 2 months due to his injuries. I was lucky to have my Dad until 2008 but his injuries definitely caused his ill health for the rest of his life. It breaks my heart for anyone losing someone to this awful way of dying.
Emma, I didn't listen to the details of PC Harpers death at the time because I struggle with the news on tv/social media/newspapers. I am so sorry for PC Harpers family, friends and wife. Xx
I cried. I’m Australian, had never heard of this case. From Emma’s intro I was expecting something like “police should be armed” or “hot pursuits should be banned”. At the first mention of the looped tow rope dragging on the ground, I said aloud,”Oh God…no”….and held my breath.
Bless that coroner. Whether they spoke truth or lied, their verdict was kind.
Emma u are honestly brill btw love the way you give ur content justice,also u give ur professional view plus ur own human view live it.keep up the great work x
I was so happy to find this video. I really wanted to hear u talk about it in that “ Emma Kenny “ way. My heart goes out to all his family and friends and well done on doing Andrew Harper justice Emma u r amazing ❤️❤️
This is so sad. Really well covered Emma x
Incredible job Emma. Deserved to have the full Emma K treatment. Thank-you x
Great video Emma of this horrible and sad case. Really interesting and keep up the great work. Have you put out all your tour dates for 2022?.
Thank you Emma xx
I have two stories about Travellers that I always chuckle about when I remember them. One of my Dad's Friends was (RIP) an Irish Gypsy & was ADAMANT he was a Gypsy not a Traveller & there was a reason for that, he was settled in his older age, he rarely travelled unless for holidays to Ireland to see Family. Well, story 1... A groups of Traveller's turned up in our town, actually Reading so pretty much where this took place. They were sadly the types dumping shit everywhere, kids throwing things at cars etc. He went down to have a word, literally to say tidy the F up, you're doing us a disservice! They gave him a load of abuse because he was settled who was he to tell proper travellers what to do!? His response was "I'm done sticking up for you guys then, oh & if you're travellers pack up your shit & F off travelling!" They didn't really have a response to that haha. The other is a far shorter story... We were having a BBQ, having a chat, he says to me & a few friends "Trust me lads you've never met a Traveller/Gypsy that isn't a criminal" we were all a tad perplexed staring at this old Gypsy man!! He took a swig of his drink & walked off to get food!! XD
Lol not really smell bull shit . 1 no such thing as Irish gypsy! There Irish travllers lol. 🤣gypsys are Romani travelled from Indian centuries ago. Irish travllers totally different. No Irish travller calls himself gypsy!! Travllers gypsy to different things . Google it if you have too! 🙄. 2 of he went down there to clear these travllers out tell them to tidy up. First he would have some sort off connection. Maybe know one off there family! And can't see them telling him to do one! There's alot respect amongst travllers there would have been some sort chat lol with out the argument. An for him to say all travllers are criminals lol he defo wernt travller or gypsy lol . Very proud people .
@@joegreen8248 Obviously didn't make it very clear I was a child in most of that & knowing the old boy he absolutely could've been fucking with us for fun!
I will also say... Yes, I am pretty ignorant to the whole Gypsy, Traveller, labelling stuff. I'm pretty useless like that with most things that require a "label" these days! I cant even say Man/Woman without the occasional cock up these days!
No need to be so dismissive with your comment either, came across a bit rude? I'd hope it wasn't meant to be, I simply shared a memory.
@@pirate_duck4985 no worries. All the best.
I really enjoy your podcasts. Merry Christmas to you Emma and your family. 😊 xx
Emma you do every case justice still love all your work wishing you and your family a very merry Christmas
Sad story but an awesome job! I hope u have a Merry Christmas, thank u!
wow ..great stuff
This is one of the most disturbing case's I've listened to in awhile. And that says a lot because there are so many disturbing case's. 💔
I'm so glad that you did this as I live in Maidenhead Berkshire, so I'm a 20 min drive away from reading and when we heard of this we were all horrified. This poor young man, well I just can't say anything.
Thank you Emma for the time you take to do these videos for us! I watch religiously but admit I can’t finish the cases involving children. Just the way you speak you can tell how much you care about every one of the victims in the cases you cover ensuring they aren’t forgotten. I think you’re amazing at what you do, very strong.
In awe of Lissie's strength. What a dignified and resilient woman, she did not deserve this. Thanks for the info re travelling communities, really interesting learning about the differing groups within the community. Have a merry Christmas 🎄
dang missed live agin holiday celebrating in the cold so cant wait as always emma
Oh my goodness, I'm in tears 😢 heart breaking... Much love for all the loved ones.. god bless
What a tragic story..Hopefully he was unconscious..our bodies have that mechanism..blessings for his wife
Well done on the coverage of this one Em,,, thanks for ya hard work. Do u realise how much we appreciate the way u put it all across to us ,so honest are your opinions, that really touch & reach us in a way that just reading about it would not really reach our humanity & empathy.This comes from your long experience in this line of work. Thank u again. Hope u & your family have a good Christmas. Stay safe,,, bless ya. 💜 x
The best crime podcast around, and the cult is getting bigger and bigger😊 Learnt a lot more about this case tonight, perfectly delivered as always Emma, this is another one where empathy for the family hits really hard, prayers and thoughts go out to them🖤🖤
Harper’s law gets my full support. Love to everyone who knew PC Harper x
I live in East Tennessee, USA. At one time we had Gypsies that would travel here and stay in Travel Parks nearby. I know the groups that came here was thieves. I worked in a retail store at that time and was told what to look out for because they always came in packs of women and children and 5 to 10 people. The women always had these large tote type bags in which they could shoplift small items. So the only interaction I had with them was to try nd keep them from shoplifting. I never met anyone of them that was not a criminal.
Must never met Tyson fury 🤣 plentyy gypsy people not criminals . Likewise never met yank who doesn't talk shit
@@joegreen8248 what part of what I said was that all gypsies are thieves? "I know the groups that came here were thieves." And who are you calling a yankee? I was born and raised in Tennessee, not a yankee!
Thankyou once again Emma for the respectable and sympathetically balanced view I feel very likeminded
Great video! I cant wait for the Peter Scully video!!
I absolutely love Emma she always gives us the facts but with her own intelligent take on things. When tackling hard or sensitive cases she always handles it with care
I love gypsy travellers I hate the way they're stereotyped and targeted leave them in peace to live how they want to, I know there are rogue and fake people within the traveller community but there's good and bad in every part of society
~ Great comment Tab. My Dad is from the Gypsy community and they do often get a bad rap. As you say, there's good and bad in every culture. ᓚᘏᗢ
@@rubytuesday5412 I'm a Traveller and I'm deffo not a criminal. Good and bad everywhere.
@@whywhat9018 ~ Exactly! People can be so judgemental..
This was so well done Emma. My heart goes out to Lissie and Andrew. What an incredible couple.
I think a really good video idea would be doing videos about UK laws, such as Harper’s Law, that have come into effect and the reasons we have them. Merry Christmas x
Well done Em ur cover was amazing xx
Oh this will be sad to listen to but will be interesting to hear your take on it all. i would like to wish you a lovely Christmas & say happy Christmas to all your follower's & fans.
Hi Emma can’t wait as usual not heard of this case 🥰
RIP PC Andrew Harper and God Bless your family x
Thank you so much for covering this case! My heart breaks at the thought of what happened to PC Harper! And my god, watching them boys behaving in such a disrespectful manner in courts wants me to want to jump though my T.V .
I think them sentence are a joke!
😢
I was sick all over Christmas, so now I can listen to 3 eps at work. It's gonna be a good day!
Thank you for another great profile Emma. You do justice to all victims even the unsung one. Take care & have a great Christmas 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👍👍👍👍
Heartbreaking every time I re-listen.
There was a memorial for this man in Reading Town centre for a long while. Rip poor bloke 😔
I love how you speak your mind but you also bring other sides to it. Think it's important your explored the nuances of the traveller communities and how we can't tar all with one brush. Keep up your amazing work ✌🏼
Agree but never met a Romani traveller with honourable intentions. Not saying they don't exist however.
Personal abuse women and children can receive from those not part of their community is appalling on occasion.
WE LOVE YOU!!!

Very interesting EM thank for your UA-cam and have a good happy Christmas 🎄 xx all the way from Ireland 🇮🇪
Excellent as always,
I have to say you’re hair looks beautiful Emma.
A very Happy Christmas to you and yours and a fantastic new year 🎄🎉🎅🏻🥂
Her statement hit differently as a pre marriage widow I fully appreciate how she feels. It truly is a different me. My heart really goes out for her and his family ❤️
Think you’re probably the most effective communicator regarding telling it how it is..
I disagreed one time about the story but I thank you for all you do, absolutely your calling x
Yoo Emma, you doing good, hope there are more pictures while you are telling the story
I live in Reading and close to where this happened, the community felt the loss and devastation of PC Harper and his family, truly horrendous!! Emma, you covered this case well and did a brilliant job, let's hope after the way they acted in court with zero remorse, they sit and rot!!
God bless this man. 💙
