None of the credible news sources seem to know much yet - I'll check the Daily Mail

I love the warm sense of community that can be felt here at pistonheads. Where a crowd can ignorantly bay for blood like savages yet condemn the same savage behaviour.

Parents, do one thing for me.

Abuse your children, treat them with contempt, never be proud of them for anything. beat them when you feel like hurting something and put lit cigarettes out on them for fun.

Now don't feed them properly, get them drunk and beat them when they are sick, make sure they have no possessions of their own and that they know that they are possessions of yours, that you don't care about.

Now, dominate every aspect of their lives, prevent them from going to school or make them go in dirty, smelly clothes. Make sure they don't have any friends that they want, choose their friends for them, ones that they can get to shoplift for you. Make them watch terrifying films and create an environment of fear and swift reprisals.


After doing all that see what they're capable of.

Amazing how easy it is to "break" a child.

IS that what happened with Venables...? I thought he was supposed to be from an OK-ish sort of family?

IIRC, his mother caught up with them in the video shop. They used to run errands (picking up overdue videos etc.) for the owner. Apparently she came in playing up fk and dragged them out. Thompson ran away and blubbed to his mum that she had hit him. She dragged him to the police station and asked a police officer to give him a lecture.
