anybody watch this? Horrendous stuff.

Just seen it! That girl is so brave! Stuff like this makes me fucking mad and very sad at the state of our country :(

raped as well. She's inspirational. What with her ex, the attacker and marlon king, I'm just shaking my head.

I caught some of it. Absolutely horrific, why would anyone do that?

im the same juddie! I read a story in the paper about some scummy little shit who stamped on a small puppy and killing it! Seriously without sounding too middle aged I honestly dispair Britains Youth and the Horrible Fucking Scummy culture of a few!

Yep. All Britains youngsters are awful, just awful. Why only yesterday I put a squirrel in a blender

was a stalker from facebook. There are some sick people out there.

Thanks for posting this as a thread Juddie.I watched it with my wife and found Katie to be
an incredibly brave young lady.Her family have also been wonderfully supportive.

Katie will still face many long hard days ahead, but she has an inner strength and determination.
She deserves to still achieve her dreams,hopes and aspirations.

The one thing that i found a little surprising, was that the programme didn't touch on Katie
receiving any ongoing counselling.It would be great for her to meet somebody like
Simon Weston,who was terribly injured in the Falklands war and also received terrible facial
burns.Just a chat with him would help boost her confidence and self esteem and to show her
that a new life is just beginning for her.

I hope she finds personal happiness in the future,she deserves it.

bloody yoof! ;) To be fair I meant a few/minority not all!

Oooh, squirrel smoothie, was it nice?

Totally agree.

I saw that puppie story, fucked me right off.

I just couldn't imagine how Katie has to live her life now.  To even look at herself or touch her face and to be constantly reminded of what happened, to not be able to sleep, to not want to walk to the shop on your own, to fear going out, to not know if she'll ever marry or find love again - or trust a bloke again, to have not lived a normal life for so long, to lose what she had... I dunno, I just found it shocking that all that can happen in a split second and because of some vile, sick twisted f*ck.

Frightening.

I admire her and her family. To hear you kid saying they have no reason to get up in the morning must be one of the most soul destroying things a parent can face.

Good luck to her.

well said juddie!

The photos of Katie in hospital really showed the visciousness of the attack.

The horror on the faces and the reaction of the customers in the cafe that
she ran into for help, said everything.

Nobody,but nobody, could prepare her for looking in the mirror for the first time.

Can't imagine it. Especially when you're that stunning and your whole life is based around how you look.

For anybody who missed the programme or would like to watch it again on C4 OD..

I can't watch stuff like this. It just makes me fucking shake with rage and want to kill. Again.

Thanks for the link, What an amazing woman - no doubt she will meet someone and have a happy future, i fell in love with her a little bit just watching that....

Except Simon West is supposed to be a complete cunt. Well from what I've heard :)

No no no, thats Simon Webb :)

Don't know him but he sounds like a cunt

Saw this and it made me really angry about the evil people out there (as did the story about the poor puppy as well!).

I'm glad that for once the justice system got it right and the guy who instigated the acid attack and raped the poor girl got 2 life sentences!  IMO he should never see the light of day again - absolute cunt!

But what does that mean ?
Life no longer means life does it ? It won't be long before some one from Lawyers R US is persuading a judge that they are no longer a threat to society & banging them up is against their human rights.
The latest example being the decision to shorten the sentence given to the lodger in the baby P case.

Occasionally one just despairs of the human race, watching that program was one of those occasions (however Katies courage was uplifting).
The guy who instigated this was pure evil and clearly a nutcase, the guy who actually did it is just a complete and utter useless waste of space stupid retarded cunt (utterly ruining someones life for what £500 or something?).
Do either of these have any remorse?
Both deserve everything they get in prison.

Oh my god - I have a heart of stone but this just really got to me both me and my boyfriend were really moved- She is such a beautiful beautiful person - I really had an overwhelming urge to want to be friends with her and look after her

I think its because she is very tiny and blonde and reminded me a bit of Zoe that it upset me even more

I couldn't watch this.  Found myself going all Daily Mail reader ('Lock 'em up, throw away the key'.)  You have to question the mental health of the ex-boyfriend and the accomplice who carried out the attack.  How do you atone for a disgusting crime like that?  Words fail me.

Have to admit, I still would. She's pretty fit.

Thats the thing though - she was worried about people staring at her but with her beautiful figure and all that blonde hair - you couldnt help but look!

I would definitely try to chat her up.

A agree, think she's still fit too.

you could photocopy a pic of her old face and she could wear it as a mask while lovemaking.

Or do her from behind.

Or get your mates to cum on her face while you do her from behind?

give it a rest for fucks sake.

I'm sure your mothers would be really proud of you.

Oh do fuck off. Making sick jokes/comments is a great British tradition. It doesn't mean people don't feel for the subject.

This is obviously a sick twisted thing to have happened, but does anybody else read the thread title in the voice of the moon from the mighty boosh?

Chalky white face

I must admit, I caught a bit of it and thought she still had a cracking body... overall decision, bang.

True, but just cos you find it funny doesnt mean that others do. So go fuck yerself - I suspect you're good at that - Wanker!

My mate came on your mothers' faces whilst I did her from behind.

One brave girl,I cant begin to imagine the pain she went through and it has to be one of the worst things to happen to a woman especially as most pride themselves on looks.

 

She should be allowed to throw Sulphuric acid over their faces, Bastards.

Yeah...right up there with the Changing of the Guard and Morris dancing.

Isn't humour meant to be one of the central planks of a 'joke' though?  If you were in the school playground surrounded by 12 year olds, you might get a few laughs.  On here, your going to piss a few people off with comments like that.  No surprise really.

 
Yawn. What are you, the moral majority? Making light of horrific acts is an everyday occurence. If you don't like it fine, but don't expect me to take any notice.

Oh and suggesting that I'm a wanker? Very astute. Me and 99.99% of males.

Humour isn't a 'one size fits all' thing. If you didn't find it funny you didn't find it funny. I think you need to look at a few threads on here to see how many people will get pissed off by a one-liner like that. 

you should be ashamed of yourself herthab.

I watched the program and really felt sorry for her. what sort of lunatic cunt pays some mong to thow acid at his ex? a few days after hes raped her. Its cases like this and baby P that make me want the death penalty in this country.

The what to do while shagging her jokes are still funny though. Are jokes about michael jackson / princess di hours after they died funny? also yes.

Would you have found it so funny, if it was your daughter or sister it happened to?

Personally I think jokes are about mood. The mood on this thread was quite serious. Am all for having a laugh and joke, but there's always a line. I felt that it was crossed.

This poor girl was raped and then had her face melted off for Christ sake. She is going to be physically and mentally scared for life. Everyone else was deploring the horrific act of violence, just 24 hours after deploring Marlon King's actions.  The type of sick joke, to me, reeked of the same vulgarity and lack of respect and remorse that Marlon King seemed to feel. I therefore found it crass and distasteful.

The response smacked of the same arrogance that King appeared to show too, which irked me yet further. I know that one shouldn't get wound up on an internet forum, but I am far from perfect.

I don't think for a moment that the jokes are anything other than meant in jest (Maybe not in the best of taste maybe). True the girl in question would not find them funny at all, but the sentiments expressed are based on the fact that she is brave, & is still attractive. (hence the comments ). I'm sure that not one person who made a joke of it has anything but sympathy for her & disgust for those who did it. It's just expressed in a different (if not totally appropriate way).

Agreed

This forum has got far too serious for its own good.

I blame the fucking leftie liberal cunts.

I demand the right to make stupid sick jokes and I also demand you fairies laugh.

Ive become a fan of her on Facebook cause I think she rocks!

bet you're not the only one JFW.

I have to admit I did find some of those jokes very funny.

And if I am ever offended by a joke or comment I don't express my distaste of the fact....I ignore it and move on, without offering my opinion.

Each to their own.

Pfft you lot are acting like you know her,it was a telly program save your moral outrage for when you're directly affected.

I laughed, but then I am a fan of dark comedy.

here here!

Why did she go out with him in the first place? Attracted to the bad boy?

She was a model, a TV presenter. She chose to go out with the lunatic. A black gang member steroid addict. I wonder what her father thought of him if he ever met him?

Obviously I do feel very sorry for her. Absoulely horrific and tragic story. Hopefully they will both serve maximum life sentances.

obviously not, but I funnily enough I care a lot more about people close to me than someone I've seen on telly for an hour (no matter how undeserving of the horrific crimes)
