Missing for 3 days and her body was found half a mile from her home. Literally hundreds of people, police and civilians alike all out looking for her and found practically on her doorstep. It just doesn't make any sense.

Seriously, how a 13 year old has the gumption to take herself out to some woods and successfully hang herself i can't get my head around. It takes massive courage and no small amount of technical skill. I just don't buy it.

It just doesn't possibly ring true though, given where the poor kid was found and the untold amount of searching by highly trained police with sniffer dogs she is found 800 yards from her front door and it took three days to find her body? Nope, I'm not buying into this at all.

So what are you saying ?

Taking youself to a sturdy tree, with an appropriate rope, being able to tie tie a proper slip knot and get to a position where you can jump off and not hit the ground or have the branch snap. Are these skills common to 13 year old girls? Even if they have the will to die?
I don't feckin think so. |

By:
Missed on the initial search, found on the 2nd search.
Police say there nothing suspicious. Only two conclusions imo a) They missed her on search 1. b) She was watching, and hanged herself after they left the area. |
|
By:
Superintendent Matthew McFarlane, who led the search, said he wanted to thank everyone for who helped look for her. He said: “From the moment Amber was reported missing our teams worked tirelessly alongside the community to try and find her.
“Over four hundred officers and staff, including those from our five neighbouring East Midlands forces, were looking for her. |

Taking youself to a sturdy tree, with an appropriate rope, being able to tie tie a proper slip knot and get to a position where you can jump off and not hit the ground or have the branch snap. Are these skills common to 13 year old girls? Why do you need an appropriate rope? No skill required to secure a belt to a tree branch with rope, or more belts, put one belt loop round your neck, lower yourself so it doesn't snap, like it may from jumping, and in two minutes it's too late to change your mind. |

Complete bullshit. jumping in front of a train can be done by any one instantaneously. Still takes guts. Successfully hanging yourself requires a lot more knowledge and skill. Hanging yourself with belts would be extremely difficult. Especially for a light weight 13 year old. Take some time. Think about it.

Facts, there must be more to this. You have to agree it just doesn't sit right

By:
could it be accidental, bag around her neck something like that?
|

By:
must have been strong belts , ones i have form ti market snap when im going for a dump

I can't see pictures, I use the Classic forum.

By:
is that not getting cancelled , so they have said for years on here
|
|
By:
It is all rather strange. Certainly haven't heard the last of it imo.
|
|
By:
If they get rid of the Classic forum I think lot of people will stop posting.
Same as the new Betfair site, it's crap. I've always used the old one, if they close it down I may go to betquack. |

By:
old one is better i think also but use them both , wherever the click takes me
|

Hanging yourself 'properly ' may be a 'skill' But self strangulation is easy, whether it's intentional or by accident. Rope,belt,strip of clothing,,tie ? Anything put around your neck and then tightened in a way you can't reverse (with use of your body weight ) will kill you .

Facts is that a Fact , if you chokeyou die ?

By:
No one on here would have thought that are you a nurse
|
|
By:
Plenty of young kids hang themselves for not to require technical prowess. Many happen accidentally so that in itself tells you that once there is something in place they struggle to remove it.
|
|
By:
Most 'accidental' hangings happen at home, do they not? Tieing yerself to a tree aged 13 is a bit diff, and apparently she was very small for her age. Anyways, no kid would hang themselves over washing a food container. Someone is lying.
