Nicholas Rossi extradition hearing
Discussion
Strangely I'd read, the man who appeared in court in Scotland for extradition proceedings was identified whilst in hospital by his tattoos matching those of the US fugitive.
Also Rossi had complained he had been tattooed whilst in a coma in hospital.
Now this journalist says he has no tattoos or scaring.

I watched all 4 episodes. I hope those women see some justice at the end of this.
His stepfather was an interesting individual though.
Yep, watched 'em all! What a fking ahole this sorry excuse for a human being is / was! Not gonna spoil things for anybody who hasn't watched all episodes but, fk me, he is the perfect advertisement for contraception! 'Spawn of Satan' indeed Would be good if the eventual outcome is reported on in the UK! His stepfather was an interesting individual though.
The whole episode was totally surreal - tends to obscure the fact that he's clearly a dangerous fker.
And in a bizarre tangent, the ex DA bought this castle with its backstory of oddness:

I’ve watched this case with interest since Rossi was first arrested in Scotland. I had my doubts about this programme before it aired because I guessed it might be just a regurgitation of news footage and the story acted out to fill the holes. Two episodes in and I take my hat off to C4, they have both been brilliant and captivating. For all the tragedy within the story and the horror show that is Rossi, the programmes have been informative, eye-opening and, dare I say it, comedic in parts. The interviewees have brought new light to the story and I’ve really enjoyed watching the perspective they’ve added to my already collected thoughts on the deceiving st.

That was after Rossi had posted an incredible amount of crap online about the DA who caught him, and his wife, being paedophiles, satanist torturers and cannibals. All untrue of course, but 'murkins The DA lost the next election therefore his job! And in a bizarre tangent, the ex DA bought this castle with its backstory of oddness:

So he bought an old Scottish castle and emigrated to Scotland! He's enjoying his retirement renovating this castle! Quite ironic seeing as Rossi was kicked out of Scotland!
Bonkers. I watched it with my wife who wasn't familiar with the story. I had missed the bit about his wife being his previous wife also! As others have said, it's sad there are victims who have been damaged for the long-term by this fella. Fair play to the ladies who played their part in hopefully making him accountable.

I watched a program on this subject last year (can’t remember) where I watched it.
I thought it was absolutely insane, I contributed on this thread soon after.
There's a documentary about the case on iplayerI thought it was absolutely insane, I contributed on this thread soon after.

It was all rather nuts. Miranda is a mystery with respect how much she is a victim. I do wonder how he treated her? The same as the others or did she have something different that meant he treated her decently? Nice that the guy with the castle said he'd help her if she saw reality (or something to that effect).
As has been said, the various abused women were brave, especially the one (Mary) that was a big part of him getting caught in the US at one point. A real shame he was extradited during the process of him seeing justice here.
Some revealing stories about how an abuser can intimidate and avoid capture such as when he got a woman to go to 2 cashpoints and draw out $200 in each. Sounds unreal but I bet stuff like that is happening all over the place.
There were unanswered questions about why proving who he was was such a problem such as DNA or paperwork. Surely there was a total lack of paperwork to support him being Arthur Knight? That doesnt prove who he is but it's part of the explanation.
His past was sad and his singer father (who said he didnt want to be called the step-father) was a concern for me. I get the point that he was a horrid and troublesome kid but I go by the theory that something turned him that way and they briefly showed a bit about his biological father. That his singer father beat him badly when he was 12 and didnt seem to face the consequences must be part of the explanation for it all.
Finally, as well as being a narcissist they also suggested Oppositional Defiant Disorder. Has Trump got that?
Anyway, I'm glad I've got that off my chest. I'll relax and watch Bangers and Cash now.

Miranda was extremely unbelievable when on camera, IMO. Eye's all over the shop, closed eyes when speaking. I did not believe a word of it from the first appearance on screen, tbh.
The whole case is as odd as a bottle of crisps, and there are some quite odd people involved, not just "Rosey".
The bit at the end where he is still claiming to be Arthur Knight on the video link...

Someone should switch his bottle to helium for the court hearing, that's the only way it could get sillier.
He needs to get that Harry Potter "barrister" to represent him! He was then convicted for benefit fraud because he was caught driving miniature trains:
The judge sentencing him for the benefit fraud accurately described him as "a deluded fantasist".
He's in more trouble again - https://www.lawgazette.co.uk/news/ex-solicitor-bla...
I know where that picture was taken. It's the Greenhead Park Miniature Railway in Huddersfield.
Generations of my paternal grandmother's family came from that part of Yorkshire..
