☹️☹️😔😔😔 Rip... WOW THE COURT SYSTEM IS A JOKE SOMETIMES. I WONDER HOW IT HAVE WENT IF IT WAS THE JUDGES CHILD
Hi Emma this was such a sad case! Disgraceful mother! Could you please do the Takoda Collins case! It is very sad 💔💔but i know you would do this justice. 💟💖
Need more pictures your drone made me go to sleep..:/
Can you stay on topic and tell the story and stop the parent tutoring! You are annoying
15 minutes in and after every sentence you go on a tangent about something else, get to the point and shut up
Alfie called out for “mummy” to help him whilst he was being murdered - she did nothing. I hope hell is waiting for them both.
Even hell is too good for these monsters!!!
Cazza -Hell doesn't exist. Alfie's life was Hell. I just hope the adults in this suffer a hell-on-earth.
She had Stockholm syndrome it’s so obvious she not to blame it’s all that devilish man
@@melissabowra7728 that’s bulls**t
@@melissabowra7728 give over. Any mother would put their child before grotty D.
How can any mother stand by and let someone hurt their child. Makes me feel physically sick hearing what this poor innocent child went through. 😪
It's heartbreaking
Smart money says that she saw Alfie as a tiresome burden. Part of her is probably happy to be free of him and the responsibility that he required. Really makes me wish that I had the resources and cunning to make people like her disappear forever without getting caught myself.
I know...It's just nothing short of unbelievable. I'm a Father so stories like this make my blood boil..
@@beasleycourt8873 same😡🤬😡🤬
Right, I would have been choking him out from the backseat 😤 then again, he couldn’t have convinced me to put my child in the floor in the first place
You are the best at talking on child abuse and murder, cos you don’t hide your emotions , it’s very raw, which is how people should feel hearing about these cases.
RIP little alfie x
This is the very reason I don't like Emma talking about child abuse and murder. She goes on a rant, I prefer a more impassive delievery, we aren't talking in the staff room, she is meant to be prossional, Just IMO
@@firehorse66100it is the death of a tiny human being. I cannot believe you are saying people should hide their feelings about that. I don’t care I’m I was a police officer, teacher, social worker whatever I will cry for a child that has to live through this hell . If there was anything ever in the world to be upset about it’s this. You can’t help it when you care that much about something it naturally comes out
Also I love her slightly rebellious tone in her voice. If she cried, I know I’d cry a lot more. She’s pissed off, as much at the systems as the “caregivers” or “family”
Wow the sentencing is awful. The Ind case that was covered where a child who is abused by his parents and then kills them gets 60 years! Doesn't get out for over 20. Then an innocent child is killed and he gets 7 years and out in 3! The British justice system is sometimes really not harsh enough. Rip little Alfie you deserved so much more. 😢

Totally agree. It’s the same in Australia. How much is a life worth? It’s a joke.
In Canada, he would likely have gotten 3 months of house arrest, a local parade named after him, and a go-fund-me account setup so that he can get the very best accommodations while serving out his “sentence”.
Agreed. Its harsh in all the wrong places. Small drug charges foe example would likely attract a similar sentence.
Natalie Scheepers - Same over here in the US, the serious crimes don't get enough time... while non-violent crimes seem to get a huge amount of time. (Not that your example was a non-violent crime-but it is a more justified/justifiable one than the death of poor Alfie.)
Little Alfie deserves to have his story told, may he RIP. Thanks for covering this Em. xx
How does this happen??????? That poor baby. Like you I hope Alfie haunts them!
@@dianahughes9216 Yes Diana I hope they are tortured by what they have done, but they probably don't care sadly!!!
He was my cousin Alfie and the one who murdered him was me uncle
Single mothers who bring violent psychotic criminals around their children are the lowest of the low. Their child should always be number one. And no normal person would ever even think of allowing these kind of people around their children. This case really is infuriating. God bless little Alfie. Rest in peace little man.
well said!
@@apt5044 thanks mate. It's just common sense really though isn't it. 👍👍
And don't get me started about that pathetic sentence. Words fail me. What a damn insult that sentence was. Disgraceful.
In this case, I agree with you, but the "psychos" don't always show their true colours until it's too late. Most single mums are out there working bloody hard to provide for and protect their kids.
@@Emerald.She-Ra very true. Some do hide it well. Good point.👍
When Waterson got into his car, his seat would've been in exactly the same position that he last left it in. Therefore, the seat didn't need to be moved back once never mind twice. If this had been brought up in court surely the idiot judge wouldn't have ruled that the death was unintentional. He intended to crush Alfie.
He did it to induce suffering! He was bullying a small child! What a pathetic human being. 🤬
That judge probably was friends with the guy's dad so he would have given the same sentence no matter what
Disgusting absolutely intentional
God bless Alfie 🙏🏿
The judge, apart from being a c u next Tuesday, must have had secret handshakes with Waterson's Dad. No one could come up with such a soft sentence. I hope his future employers, neighbours, partners find out his history. Waterson is living. Alfie is not.
C U next Tuesday. I absolutely love that 👏👏👏
@@kezfaz6429 Me to it is all about who you know.
People do longer for benefit fraud says it all ! Money talks
@@HJadventures50 money crimes always taken seriously. A child's life can be worth very little - even though it's one of the most valuable things on Earth. :,(
As the old saying goes 'Its not what you know, it's who you know. Don't think much of his family, and hope they hang their heads in shame. Disgusting
I remember when this happened and it broke my heart to think what that poor wee baby went through and I feel sick to my core listening to this! My youngest child is 3 and I don't know how anyone can allow someone to harm their child.. I'll be hugging all my children a bit tighter tonight.
Sleep easy beautiful Alfie 😇🤍
Thank you for expressing the outrage that so many of us felt while listening to this case. I know you held back quite a bit, but I was glad to hear unapologetic anger from you.
People having kids who just should not have them, when there are would-be parents out there who can’t have the joy of children. This was so tough to listen to. Thank you for highlighting this case.
That poor beautiful boy must of been terrified, wondering why his mummy his protector did nothing. The police must get so frustrated bringing someone to court and witnessing such pathetic sentences. The British Court system is a joke.
Children are so vulnerable and innocent that it really does incite rage and fury when they are taken by sadists. 🤬🤬🤬💔
she just didn't love him. Her needs were her main concern. Insecure little scrubber.
Well said
That fact that you called her a scrubber took me back to 1999 and I’m here for it!!! 🤣
Her surname says it all too. Self centred slore.
The number of times that I have been squashed into places uncomfortable to accommodate my children is uncountable. It's MY role to take on all the uncomfortable things from my kids.
I agree! I’m nearly 6’ tall and I will ride with my knees against the dash to give room for the person in the back seat. This guy doesn’t even look tall. He is a horrible person. RIP Alphie
It wasn't about him having leg room... it was about control and bullying a weaker person. Cannot believe the small sentence this little man received. 😢
Agree with you! I also don’t understand why the mother didn’t have Alfie on her lap!? Especially after seeing the first time he was so uncomfortable and having trouble breathing!
@@annatyler1640 My thoughts too and I am probably going to guess that it was purely out of fear that a police officer would see him and pull them over and then they’d be in trouble for not having him in a proper car seat. I’ve seen parents like that before. It’s not about the child’s safety, if it was, they wouldn’t have stuffed so many people into the car to begin with. I know I would say, no we’ll just go another time or how about we catch a bus and meet you there? (Or actually call a taxi like they attempted to use in their excuse!)
True mom life ; lol this makes me laugh cuz it’s true but makes me sad at the same time other parents don’t put their kids first .
This is the hardest listen of any of your podcasts. All I can say is that I hope for nothing but pain for the people that hurt this little boy.
Who evens thinks about putting a small child in a footwell of a car? It’s almost as if they don’t recognise the childs humanity or rights
Right? I wouldn't put my dog in the footwell.
@@abbidolan2903 Agreed! I was thinking the same, i wouldn't put a small dog or cat in that position let alone a human kid. Put the kid in a carseat. If too many people are around, then make too trips! Drop off a parent and kids, then come back for the adults.
My family has done this in the past, but only as a last resort when we couldn't fit any more cousins on laps. But the seat would always be as far forward as possible. I remember being so uncomfortable with my knees up to my chin so I could give my brother as much space as possible because I understood how scary it could be to be sat down in a small space in between someone's legs and the back of a seat for even a small ride with everyone checking on you every mile and a half is terrifying for a small child. [to clarify: no this is not legal in the UK, never did this for a ride longer than ten minutes, and no I'm not encouraging it [it's awful]
@@abbidolan2903 I was about to say the same thing
@@abbidolan2903 same here!
Never heard of this case before Emma.
I've never been more upset and annoyed in my life.
That poor little boy hasn't had proper justice at all.
RIP Alfie sweetheart...
What is new this is the British Justice, the higher you are in "society", the more leinient your punishment . She sholud have got 30 years, it 's her child women who have responsibility for thie rown children get way too much of a soft sentence. It needs a review.
I applaud you dear Emma for telling the stories of how these poor children lost their lives. God bless you sweetheart, you're doing such a good service to these poor babies. keep up the great work. xx
"They are gifted a child." Such a simple statement, but so incredibly deep & impactful. Children are the greatest gift & being a parent is the greatest privilege.
Where are the non-custodial parents in these children's lives? Can you imagine what that little boy went through living with those two..
RIP Alfie🙏❤
🥺💔
I often wonder the same in some of these cases, I think it's often a combination of sometimes the abusive parent has deliberately kept them away and other times they don't care.
This story is heartbreaking 💔 😢 children are precious gifts not toys to be thrown around a room
appears the Judicial system do not mind children being tossed around the room, ending in their demise….. you only get a soft sentence for such tragedy .. no wonder child abuse/death is on the rise!? The Judge had NO balls in this case!!😡
RIP little alfie, I can’t imagine the pain you went through in your final moments but you are free from it now. The monsters that killed you never deserved you in their lives and I’m sorry that the system failed you even in death. I wish you could know how many people really do care about you and wish deeply that you were still here 💜
Amen❤
The judge needs a f’ reality check and find another job. I’m so angry 😤Alfie needs real justice not this disgusting circus.
Probably in the same funny handshake club as the scum's father!
I just found your channel and I want to thank you! Thank you for advocating for not hitting kids. I have 6 kids and have never laid a hand on them. It just doesn't feel right to hit a smaller person just because I am mad. If I hit my husband, I'm going to jail. But yet some people think hitting a small defenseless child is somehow ok? I just never understood how hitting someone is teaching them right from wrong. Makes no sense
the mother had the same responsibility as the boyfriend in my opinion. She should have gotten the same charge and the same conviction. But hey, it didn't matter when the sentence was a slap on the wrist anyway.
Blood boiling really describes it best.
Mother was a little scrubber who was just happy to have a bf with a car
Every adult in that vehicle is responsible. Any one of them could have stopped this and saved this little boy 😞.
I remember once, a few years ago now. There was a woman shopping with her 4 year old toddler at a shopping mall and she was dragging him really hard by the arm and then all of a sudden, he fell and well, she absolutely lost it. She pulled him up off the floor and gave him the biggest good hiding.
We’ll, this was it. I went over to her and told her I’m calling social services. She told me to mind my own business. I said ‘No fucking chance’. I called the police in the end.
Things like this really grieve me. If people can act like this in public, imagine what goes on behind closed doors!!!! 😡😡😡😡😢😢😢😢
Good for you Kerry 😌
@@lindadee6603 I hate it Linda, I really do!!! X
❤❤❤👏👏👏 see something, say something! Good job, you may have saved that child!
Thank you for possible saving that child, we cannot be afraid to speak for the little people in this world who are so often ignored, I thank you again xxxx
I was with my mum one day in a store I was a teenager a woman was walking way in front of her little boy about 3 years old n he started crying you want to have heard the swearing and name calling out of her grabbed him by his hood of his jacket and pulled him to his feet , I don’t think Iv ever seen my mother that angry in my life she was up in the woman’s face telling her folk like her shouldn’t be allowed to have kids and she was a shameful excuse of a human being someone called police 👮♀️😢😡
Poor little soul, how any Mother can sit and have a child crushed to death in front of her defies explanation. She truly didn't care!!! No man is worth more than your child's life. This made me so angry, as the justice system didn't value Alfie's life either! Pathetic sentences for both killers 😢
I really think he intentionally killed that baby because he was selfish and jealous of that baby
A drug dealer would get longer thats how messed up our justice system is this is unbelievable
When my 6 yr old passed from complications due to cancer, it destroyed and reformed my entire life. I don't even recognize the old me. I couldn't imagine just "getting on with my life", how tf is that even possible??
These stories must be extra difficult for you to listen to, I’m so sorry to read about your child. Life’s so unfair.
So sorry for your loss, every parents nightmare
So sorry 4 your loss hun x
So sorry for your loss . it's heartbreaking 💔
Have no words I would love 10 minutes with him, Emma brilliant informative insight of this tragic action, rest in peace Alfie x
The fact that no-one else in that car,didn't speak up for Alfie,nobody showing an ounce of care and concern.Truly shocking😓
This was a tough one. I was shaking my head the whole time at this awful case. Some people do not deserve to have the gift of children. It always makes me so cross when so called parents neglect and harm their children. I just do not understand people like that. All I can say is there souls must be very dark. I feel the mother just didn't have the love inside of her to give to Alfie, it simply wasn't there. The scary thing is both the mother and the boyfriend could have children now they are out of prison. I hope the universe intervenes and doesn't let this happen. I am so shocked at what the judge said in the boyfriends trial, they sounded like they were on his side and didn't care about little Alfie. I am sure some bribing went on there. Anyway thank you once again for your hard work Emma. You really did a good job telling us about Alfie, you were so passionate about what happened to him. Sending you a healing hug I think you need one after that emotional story X
You should be a lawyer! I could see you bringing justice to many innocent children and their families. ❤
More like a judge imo, if judges all had Emma’s morals there would be no shitty lenient sentences given to those who deserve the book chucked at them 💯
Being a lawyer is really hard all criminals are entitled to a defence no matter how awful the crimes. I can’t imagine Emma being able to defend (not out of choice) evil bastards. Judge sounds a good idea
I would go nuts if someone even yelled n scared my dog let alone a child
OK this makes me feel physically sick in my stomach. Im ashamed that I live in the UK the place is rotten from the top down. Where is the justice for this poor little boy? These 'people' should have been locked up for at least 20 years. .... Emma you are giving this poor little lad a voice, thank you for your hard work. This honestly gives me tears of rage. 🤬😡
Calm yourself no need to hate the whole country there are more nice decent people in the UK than evil creeps so cheer up 😁😆😅🤣😂🏴❤
This story is just heartbreaking 💔
Cases like this just kill me, and makes me hug my son a little longer before bed. Thanks again for another great video. xx
Thanks for sharing little Alfie's face with us Emma. I will think of him often.
Emma, thank you for expressing your passion and anger about this case that I'm sure we all feel. It's an unbelievable crime, that poor boy. However I can't help but feel that Emily should have done more as she was in the back seat seeing, hearing what was happening. I know it's easy for me to say but I would have pulled him out and faced the consequences. Imagine letting your own child witness this horrendous treatment
Thank you for covering this case. This has certainly been one of the hardest ones to listen to. That poor angel deserved so much more than those pathetic excuses of existence. RIP Alife, you beautiful little boy.
I was completely incensed by this case and the pathetic sentences handed out. Poor, poor little boy. Also, what happened to the child that ghastly excuse for a mother was expecting when Waterson threatened to drive them into a wall a year previously?
Wasn't Alfie likely the one she was pregnant with, if she had no other kids?
@The Pagan Apostate
Not if Alfie was three (unless he was a Time Lord, poor kid.) He was already two when she met this revolting evolutionary fail.
Bar.. ..Give me 10 mins in a room with him and her
Some young women aren't equipped to be parents - they have an unrealistic view of what having a baby means. Alfie's mother was immature and only interested in her relationship with that waste of space boyfriend.
No doubt she didn't rescue Alfie from the footwell, in case it upset Waterson. He sounds like a psychopath.
Poor Alfie, forced to live with these hideous people. I can just imagine what his life was like on a daily basis. Poor child.🧸
Fuming at this story, may karma pay them back for the rest of their lives, because their sentencing were pathetic! RIP Alfie 🙏
They have to answer to God. 😬
@@josefina5421 God may be merciful but he's also just
I think the problems we have is that so many people are not brought up in loving & engaging families , with no clear boundaries .
I love your anger over this case, it resonates in my heart and mind so strongly. I also love your ability to use the language elegantly, your rants are actually beautiful. This case is so sad. I agree with you about the sentencing.
Emma did an excellent analysis -from an expert's view point. This is 'a must watch' and well worth a subscription and notifications of up coming events.
I'm a mother of 4 adult children and 4 grandchildren. If I see this happening in a store I have no problem going up to the parent and ask what are they doing. I don't care if they get angry I care about the child. Usually they stop right away.
I have done this!!! I saw a child getting smacked many years ago and called the "mother" out. I got a slap and the store manager called the police. I was very tempted to slap her back 😅 but i knew it was the wrong way to react. She only got a fine!! The fine was for striking me - nothing for beating her child. This was in the years you were able to physically punish your children legally in this country (UK). I often think about that poor little boy being slapped in front of everyone and nobody doing anything. I would do it again, I don't care about getting a slap but I do care about children being physically abused.
That's exactly what I was thinking Ive been in the supermarket and had that happened many times and I'll always stop and ask if I can help them or something so I'm not being aggressive or accusing them but trying to intervene enough for her to calm the f#$@ down. But there's also been a couple of times where Ive had to physically had to grab a mother's hand as she was about to slap her little boy in the side of the head, AGAIN, turned out this mumma was very strong and didn't like to be there ld by a stranger that she's hurting her child so she proceeded to smack me in the face a few times, but you know what I'd do it again and again no matter how many guilty mums or dad's react to me I'll always stand up for a defenceless child. Someone must've walked past this car n seen something my god!
This upset me so much as the child was dying next to them in the car & they did nothing pure evil
R.I.P Alfie❤️ another little soul gone before his time
Emma, there is a trial going on right now from my area (Bridgend South Wales) on the murder of 5 year old Logan Mwangi. On trial is his mother, step dad and step brother, would love for you to look into it and give your take on everything once it’s been concluded as I know you will do it justice for him no matter what the outcome. X
I read about that yesterday, such a messed up story. Why was the 14yr old involved? So many questions. Poor wee soul.
That little boy was on the news yesterday. We keep hearing that the trial continues. I want to know why a 14 year old is involved - perhaps the older sibling? It all sounds very dodgy. There are too many children being murdered by family members, worldwide.😩
Just to give an update.
All three defendants (mum,step dad and step brother) have been found guilty of murder and perverting the course of justice today.
👼🏻❤️
@@courtneybarry9204 that's a relief. Will be watching the news later. Poor child treated like rubbish by those monsters. RIP little Logan 🌈🌹🕊👼🧸
About to watch this. 😪
Literally obsessed with this channel. When you get excited at 7pm on a Sunday...
X
I just wanted to tell you, love ya, love how compassionate you are about your episodes, love how genuine you are, and love how deeply you dig to get truthful information. Thank you very much!!
What kind of parents can plan their explanation and ignore their child? Emma you are so good presenting these stories. Your children have a terrific mom. Thank you for all you do.
It's very hard to have to bury your child. I lost my 19 to years ago but a day never goes by without my thinking of my Lil Mike. I pray for parents that have to bury their children. My prayer is for peace comfort.and faith. My prayers for all
Him saying he was Not angry is actually worse and makes
Him even more more of a Monster
I haven’t heard about this case but it’s just unbelievable how they think a child can travel in the car like that. Poor little boy my heart breaks for him. I will never understand how someone who is blessed and so lucky to have a child, can treat them this way. So many people would give ANYTHING to have a baby and these monsters just murdered him. I get very angry because I waited for years and years to get pregnant with my first baby and now I’m the happiest mom ever and adore my two precious little boys and it breaks my heart to hear that not every mom loves and protects their children. 😢
Omg Emma! Literally when you were describing how much room Alfie had in that bloody car I could feel the claustrophobia kicking in and I almost started to have a panic attack. I felt the child's pain tremendously
There was no seat in back?
@@BobSmith-ll9ol watch the video
You're an empath, like me. We can never understand this evil 💜 we literally feel the anguish of this poor child 😢
I'm so upset with the lack of justice for Alfie. Imagine the pain he went through. Poor baby had a failure for a 'mother' if we can call her that.
Sleep well Alfie. You left this world too quickly. 😢💔
What I find incomprehensible, is that the 'mother', would even fathom putting Alfie in that situation in the first place.
And don't get me started on the sentencing. What sort of justice is that?!
And to think, that the man who killed this sweet child, is now out?!
I think there must have been a screw loose in the judge's head!
Downright despicable!
Thanks Emma for your constant efforts to support the rights and safety of children.
My dad bought an audi when I was 10. While I was sitting in the back seat he used the electric seat button to move the seat back. It got stuck going backwards and started to crush my legs. I started to panic and scream. In that moment my dad went into ultimate dad mode and tried to tear the seat out to stop it from hurting me. He broke the seat, but stopped it. That's what Alfie's parents should have done. It seems like no one in that car had that instinct.
Probably coz it was form one purpose that’s why. I don’t know who the hell would ever put a child in the footwell of a car but definitely premeditated or if not planned, definitely done on purpose
This is gonna be another tough one but I'm sure you do that little angel justice Emma xx
That poor 3 year old child. Such a darling and cherished age for any Mum with a beating heart. To think of a tired child, having already been dragged around by insensitive, hostile gaurdians, needing comfort and being exposed to that terrifying brutality - without a word or a single protective action from his own mother. His pleas ignored, cries of agony gnored, his gasping for air ignored, his silence and death ignored. What a disgrace of a human being that woman is. And as for that malevolent, entitled, head-on-a-stick thing passing itself off as man, crushing the life out of a tiny child as retaliation for his being in need of a place to sit in a moving car makes me call out to God for vengeance. That's a memorable face, for all the wrong reasons, and he will have to wear it throughout the rest of his life.
Well said JJ👏
I believe his face is something that can be changed, an by the grace of God and an appropriate manifestation of vengeance it will be altered one day.
I mean, to be fair, three CAN be a tough age. Not for me personally, but I've heard horror stories from other parents, and enough of them that I suspect it's at least kind of typical, that I appreciate that kids ages 1-5 are unpredictable, and often raging little apes.
That being said, THAT'S WHAT YOU SIGNED UP FOR. You signed up for being a parent, or step-parent, or guardian of some kind. Something you should NEVER do unless you know both what to possibly expect AND know yourself well enough to know if you can handle it. And not everybody can. And those who can't probably shouldn't have kids. Or if they do, and realize too late, it's not cruel to put your child up for adoption the second you even have an INKLING of hurting them. Yes, being separated from his mother would have been very upsetting and confusing for little Alfie. But he would have eventually found a new family, a family who would treat him LEAGES better than his caregivers did, and he'd have adjusted to their loving care very quickly. Most abusive parents DO love their kids (some don't, but most do) but they're so dysfunctional that they still do things that cause serious harm to their kids. And that parent has to make the ultimate selfless sacrifice. And give the wee baby up, go through the grief, and be comforted knowing that the baby's new family will raise that child to be healthy, happy, and fulfilled as a human being. I'm not talking about one bad day. I'm talking about prolonged patterns of abusive behaviour. When that's your reality, it's time to deliver your child to some kind person, a pediatrician, a loving family member, wherever, and be blatantly honest in saying that "while I love my child very much, I am not a fit parent and cannot control my temper at all. And because I love this child so much, I want you to find parents for him/her that can give him everything I can and all the things i can't."
Edit: I never went through this as a parent myself. Just to clarify. The reason my reply is so detailed and well thought out is because that's what my parents should have done with me. I know they love me very much. They really do. And it's because I was an emotionally neglected and abused child that I can say with certainty that abusers tend to love their kids. But they didn't want me. And I used to think about this a lot as a kid. Like "Why don't you find me some new parents? I'd still visit you. I'd still love you. But I want a real mum and dad." That was the one thing I wanted more than anything in the world. Honestly, I've been an adult for a few minutes, and it still is my greatest wish. But it's too late for that. So I've reverse-Uno'd the situation and turned being the parent I wished I'd had into the art form of parenting my own amazing 6 year old girl. I honestly don't know how you can't want them. And the older they get, the more you want to know them.
These stories break my heart. Thank you for covering them, even though it's so hard to hear, Emma.
Watching this I've just hugged and kissed my 27 year old autistic son who has severe learning difficulties. Poor little Alfie, beautiful boy, you deserved SO much better, and didn't get justice for your brutal murder. RIP Alfie, hope you are at peace.
He was such an adorable little man that deserved a lot more than his caregivers gave him it hurts my heart to know the sentences they were given... Thanks Emma, brilliant as usual and R. I. P. Alfie 🙏🙏😭
So much blame shifting from these spineless cowards and bullies and that sentence is absolutely disgusting....love your passion Emma. Don't ever change.
It's unfortunate they didn't meet their just deserts in prison.
Almost to 100,000!! Should have happened a long time ago but hopefully it will be soon!! Keep up the amazing work we love you Emma!!
when I was a baby I used to cry throughout every car ride I was in for the entire time. My mum often tells the story about how one time on a long car ride that she had to do with me alone, I fell asleep after crying for a while and she was so spooked that she parked the car in the safety lane and woke me up because she was scared, and afterwards I continued to cry for another hour.
Now that I'm an adult with children myself, I can totally understand that fear. If she hadn't thought anything about me just going quiet after crying, that would've been completely understandable and innocent, but that's not what we do as parents, is it? If a child cries a lot and gets really worked up and then suddenly goes quiet and we can't see them, we feel fear, worry. That's the normal response.
His angry face and dark, dead eyes says EVERYTHING to me ! 👉👹

SWEDEN HERE. and I must say that the punishments in the U:K are many times chocking to hear. There are so many times I have been dumbfounded to hear what horribel crimes people have committed and they get away with them by serving almost no prison time. This case is another prime example.. It is early in the morning and my blood is boiling and my pulse is racing. Thank you Emma for a great video and I agree fully with everything you said./Vera
Punishments for crimes in the USA are much better. People aren’t punished equally for the same crimes the system here is definitely broken.
Hard to listen to and this must have been so hard to research it’s horrible, but we need to know what monsters are out there and you have told it with respect to Alfie bless him poor little baby xx. Also I don’t have children but who could not notice a small child in distress I think they are pure evil, I don’t know why but when you said he was three foot tall my heart broke 🥺 thanks for all you do Emma and for telling his story x
It is horrible to research these cases but remember; Emma is a seasoned Psychology professional. I'm a Forensic Psychology student and some of the things Psychologists have to see & hear are horrific. Cases like these definitely stay with you forever. Its not for everyone 💝
She’s a sorry excuse for a mother
Thanks Em for covering this one. 💕
I'm in America and was not aware of little Alfies story. I had to google stones to pounds and was even more horrified to learn that 12 stones is equivalent to 168 pounds! This poor little baby didn't have a chance and it sickens me to even try to think of what he went through that day. Bless his little precious heart. Thank you for sharing his story. I'm a new subbie and will be looking at your content. Have a nice day. ❤
Right?!? What happened to that beautiful little boy was the equivalent of a 168 pound person sitting their full weight on his tiny body and just staying there!!! EVIL!!!
RIP little one! Makes me so mad, some people honestly don’t deserve to have kids! 😡
Emma! I’ve been binge watching your shows all weekend! I’m an addict of your show! 🥰 I think you said your husband does the editing? You both are great! I’m becoming a patreon today!! Thank you for all the hard work. You put your heart and soul into these. You do more than tell the story. I appreciate all you do. I love how you also open my eyes to a lot of different subjects. 💖✨
I don’t think it was about getting comfortable. This was waiting to happen. God knows what had gone in before, if it hadn’t been the car when this individual finally “lost it” it would have been some other scenario
you don`t cope with a childs death you grieve continually deep down , but you know life has to go on especially if you have other children
The word bully is Definitely overplayed, you are right!!
Sounds like something a bully would say...
@@nickyblue4866 😆Pathetic comeback. And I wouldn't know, I've never been called a bully.
If people really experienced the true definition of bullying, I don’t think it’s a word that would be used so freely
@@beccamason3712 Exactly! A lot of people like to label themselves a victim lately, for the slightest thing.
Absolutely furious at the outcome of this case. How can Alfie's life mean so little to the courts 😢
i just found your channel so far i love ur work. thank you sooo much for ur time!
The case where the girl who was going to be a doctor, who stabbed her boyfriend but got away lightly happened near me. I remember reading it at the time and being absolutely livid. Would YOU want to be treated by someone who showed so little disregard for human life? Because I wouldn't. And likewise, the sentencing in Alfie's case is abismal! Sometimes I think the justice system in the UK is a joke, because not only should this have never happened, people shouldn't be able to feel like they have literally got away with murder.
Maybe she was well-connected? She certainly got off lightly 😠
I’m trying to hold myself together, I had heard about this case, but not known the sentence. Emma I’m livid , how is this allowed? What happened here?why?, I feel sick, I hope they rot in hell!!!!! I also hope the judges in this case believe in karma and I hope it happens to them and they realise how disgusting they are , RIP you gorgeous boy xxxx
Oh, boy! I love, love, love when you do a case I haven't heard of! I can't wait! Although, I can't wait for your Ted Bundy episode either. I wouldn't watch anybody else talk about him because isn't he the one all of us interested in true crime start out with? Or is it just me??
I read, Killing for Company as a teen. I was hooked on true crime!!
Rich Ramirez for me.
Jeffrey dalmer for me
Though Bundy has been over covered ad nauseum, I'd still like to hear Emma kick the old wanker over the coals......
@@treesha3427 She has said that Bundy will be her 100th episode! Hopefully she will hit 100,000 subs at the same time!! ❤️
You know what Emma Kenny ? ( beautiful) . I’ve just had a Penny drop.I’ve been watching you from the very beginning, and you just say and express things “ spot on “ you just seam to know. From some one who has been through some of this stuff , just some, just some. I say thank you. ♥️
Thank you for sharing this. As hard as these cases are, I now know about this handsome little boy named Alfie who was taken way too soon.
Hate the way these vile people use having awful childhoods as an excuse for their behaviour. My childhood wasn’t great but I’ve never gone on to commit a single crime! Hope the pair of them rot in hell. She should have protected her baby with her life. She could see he was struggling to breath so sit him on your knee instead of the footwell, he was a baby not an animal you sit on the floor 😡😡
Great video as always Emma x
Never fail to disappoint! 🙂 This one was heavy, evil evil people!!! 🤬 Story about the medical student who stabbed her boyfriend, sounds like it would be an interesting video!! 🙂
Being in nz I haven't heard of this, but I'm reaching for the knife block. Would I be prepared to go to jail for causing damage to these people? If I didn't have my own children YES
if sentences are less for the well-to-do, then the well-to-do are getting the shaft when it comes to being protected from the well-to-do criminal. this is outrageous!
i cant have kids and i dont get caregivers like this
What is going on in the UK?! If this was here in the states, they both would have gotten life!!!
I know! Sometimes I’m ashamed of our justice system. 😞
Hmmmm...... Casey Anthony.....
Sometimes even in the US the justice system doesn't work.
The punishment doesn't fit the crime in the UK it disgusting child rapists murderers should get 30yrs atleast american jail terns are extreme for non violent crimes. Also crimes like the mendeze brother should have been 10yr because of the abuse they suffered ☠☠🏴🏴
That's not true sadly
Many in the states get little sentence, and they do even worse as in planned or continued unspeakable acts "/
@@kristym1118 😞
This was an extremely painful case for you to discuss. Thank you for your courage and dedication to bring us these painful cases
Emma would you consider looking into the laura milne case from Aberdeen. She was a vulnerable, kind hearted young woman who was viciously murdered in her own home by 3 people, a Male and 2 females (I was unfortunately in school with the male here in Inverness) this case is woefully unknown, and I hear that one of the female attackers is now a free woman and works as a hairdresser (the only trace of this case on UA-cam) I thought of asking you as I know you would provide an insightful video on a case that has haunted myself and many others who knew Stewart Jack the murderer!
Was Laura the disabled young lady?
Can't find anything about it on UA-cam, link?
I told my bf all I want for my birthday on Wednesday is a Emma Kenny ‘is it just me’ hoodie in black and a new dressing gown and I reminded him the other day and he’s forgot and think there is a delay
On them for 8-10 days! Least I will get one in the end! … love this channel Emma xx
Awh happy birthday for Wednesday 😁
@@Edfsarah3376 aww thank you 😊
I got the hoodie in time!!! Thank you Emma and Pete!!! And obviously my amazing boyfriend Paul xx
@@lucymartin5606 Happy birthday(again!) and ahh just in time! Have a lovely day 🎁🥳 xx
Love watching your channel Emma, you tell these cases with such passion its incredible, thank you for being the voice of these beautiful children. The sentences in this case is appalling I was so angry hearing this, that's no justice at all for poor Alfie. I have a 3 year old little boy & he is my world, along with his older brother & younger sister, I don't understand how a parent can do this to their child. R. I. P Alfie you beautiful little boy.
Thank you Emma for giving Alfie a voice 💙
The pain and suffering he endured at their hands is just too awful to even imagine 😢
The sentences they were given just really make my blood boil 🤬 - he at least deserved justice
We will remember your name Alfie and I hope and pray that you are now at peace, surrounded by love 💕
OMFG!! I've only managed to watch halfway I'll come back to it later, I am finding this so difficult to take in 😥😥
