Category: Let's talk
this morning I received a call from my mother saying that there had been a load of police round one of the roads not far from where I live. They had taped off a house and there were police everywhere. On doing a bit of research on the bbc site, I found out that a woman had been murdered there. Her body had been found in the house in the early hours of the morning, and a man from Hertfordshire had been arrested in connection with the murder. It has subsequently transpired, from some friends of mine not from the media, that this woman had met a guy while speed dating, and had arranged a date with him - the guy in question was from hertfordshire .. you can guess the rest. I don't know the woman in question but I do know some people who know her, and I used to work for one of the associated companies that she worked for. I just find it so scary that you could arrange what you would think to be a perfectly innocent date, and it turn out like this...
Wow!!! That's horrible!!! I can't understand how people could be so mean!!! Going on a date with someone and to have that happen to you is just plain awful!!! I wonder how it all happened??? Did he plan to murder her or was it on the spur of the moment thing???
*sexy*
I guess only time will tell us the answers to that. Although from what I read on the bbc site, the man was arrested having made a call to police. One can only imagine that perhaps whatever happened wasn't planned, he killed her, left, and then realized what he'd done and called the authorities.
I heard of a father who murdered the daughter he had recently given away on her wedding day! every single member of the human race is capable of anything...
it's really sad to hear that. I don't like the way the world's going. U an't even walk down astreet anymore...
Well I have to confess to not been desperate enough to go with someone I've never met and I never have been. That doesn't mean I've been highly admired, it means that I've got sense! Basically though what happened to the girl was cruel, she shouldn't have been stupid enough to go on a date with someone she didn't know!
its horible that we have to think that way but the sad sad truth is that there are a lot of sick and twisted people out there! you really can't be too careful!
well this is true but are there more sick people out there than normal ones? it transpires that, although this girl met the guy speed dating, she had been out with him before and they had become friends. HE apparently called police at 5 a m from Hertfordshire saying he had killed a woman in Swindon. He is originally from hertford but is now living in Swindon, and he works with the husband of someone my mum works with, apparently he was a really quiet guy. One never knows what happened but if he rang police reporting what he had done one can only imagine that it was perhaps an accident of some kind?
and as guys, are you prepared for the fact that a girl might not consider you to be completely trustworthy on a first meeting?
claire i can genuinely say that not only am i totally prepared for it! i'd even be surprised if that wasn't the case! its terribly sad but you really can't trust anybody, and from somebody elses point of view that same logic must apply to me!
Then how the hell do you date a wide range of people in safety, in order to find the right 1, every feckin date is a risky affair are you suggesting we only date those we know have you forgotten that 90% of people, are killed by someone they know, its easier as a stranger would be unable to gain the victim's trust..this girl wasn't stupid maybe naive yes and f..kin unlucky
Sugarbaby, I think people believe the whole planet is full to bursting with sick and twisted and unpredictable and creepy people because we tend to get the info about how things are from the news. The news concentrates on crimes and murders and the actions of the sick and twisted because things that unsick and untwisted people do are not entertaining, spectacular, or unexpected. Then, if we se something going on in a neighborhood or a city, we seem to like to conclude that it's the same anywhere in the world. So even an ice cave in the Antarctic would just e full to bursting with psychos bent on your death, yes? LOL! I'm not saying there are no sick people, but I think there are a few that just get lots of attention.
