Can you imagine the number of people who would be (have been) alive living and thriving IF predators were locked up from the 1st crime?!?!?!  This is and has been a gawtdamn pandemic forever.  Just INFURIATING 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

i don't think i've ever seen a true crime case with this many cops actually doing their job

38:27 they let him go after he strangled a child because „he probably won‘t do it again“??? What the actual fuck???

Jennifer's dad saying if he hadnt bought her a bike, she wouldnt be missing 💔💔

It was my godfather who discovered Sarah Harpers body in the River Trent, in Wilford, Nottingham! Before my godfather passed we had multiple conversations about it, he initially thought it was a doll floating down the river but soon realised it wasn’t! A few years before my godfather passed he was contacted by Nottinghamshire Police asking if he would be willing to travel to Newcastle to give a statement in court for Blacks crimes! I was his carer at the time and was going to travel to Newcastle with him when he was requested to go to court! Unfortunately, my godfather passed before then, the whole ordeal really stuck with him! Finding Sarah’s body changed him and his outlook on life! He had some comfort knowing that Black was in prison but he always talked of that tragic day!

Even in the 80s, 5 years old seems young to be alone...

This is such a sad case. When my children were younger, everyone around me kept telling me to stop being a helicopter mother and to let my children have fun and do things on their own. This right here is why I was a helicopter mother. I have no shame in it. We live in a very sad world.

The fact that they kept letting him out after he kept going…those poor girls & how all of this could’ve been prevented if they actually convinced him years ago!

The amount of times this guy could of been stopped?? I get not wanting to put a child through more trauma with pressing charges and trials but it could be preventive to future victims. My heart goes out to all the victims and thier families. I can't imagine how insanely difficult it would be to go through things like this. Definition of hell on earth.

Why does he get a police escorted burial at sea?!! That seems so unfair to the families of those sweet little girls

The little coffin. Im sobbing. The community really rallied around that baby

When you said it was the girls FATHER my jaw DROPPED 😨 been a die hard fan of your videos for the past two years but my god.. this one was heavy. Those poor girls and poor families.

Dang i was hoping you’d say “they cremated him and tossed his ashes in the bin”

Anyone who didn't report this man is partially responsible for those little girls who died. Full stop.

I’m from Scotland and can 100% confirm the title of this video is legitimate. Still sickens me to the core, I don’t think many people around the world have heard about Robert Black ‘just evil!  I empathise with the broken families still to this day - so so sad 😢 Thank you Bella for sharing. 🫶🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Just in case Bella or anyone watching doesn’t know, the correct terminology has been updated to “child s*x abuse material” rather than “child p*rnography” to better describe the crime and to protect victims from further traumatization. (Source: ECPAT International’s 2016 terminology guidelines) As always, tysm to Bella for covering these cases with intention and compassion. ❤

The tenacity of the police, especially about Jennifer, is admirable. It is truly subhuman what this shell of a human did to those poor girls.

I’m only 10min in and already sobbing. I’ll never understand the horrors of what humans choose to do.

Concurrent sentences should not be a thing. Plus, this was literally 3 different cases that took place at 3 times to 3 different people.

As a mum to a 4 year old girl and 2 year old boy, this video is a the worst nightmare EVER. Literally made my heart break. And gave me shivers!
