A STAGE SHOW FOR MOOR MADNESS?

 WITHOUT PREJUDICE - Moors Murders.. everyone remembers them, whether you were born in that time era or heard about it via friends, family, newspapers, social media. You cant get away from the heartbreaking articles that named the victims, the timeline of the victims last hours and the all enduring heartbreak and loss felt by a parent who lost their child through unimaginable circumstances. Let's add to that all family members, extended family, friends and indeed communities where those children graced the world with their presence, albeit a short one.  Now try to imagine what those people had to endure not knowing, for years what happened to their children and then some having to relive the horrific circumstances again when their child was recovered from a desolate moor years later. Now, let's think for a moment of the family of Keith Bennett, a child still lost to his family, a mother who went to her grave never knowing where her child was and the brother that to this day is still searching for Keith. A man who has to endure heartbreak on a daily basis by people who use his brothers' death to their own needs.

Go forward to a day in July 2019 and a post im tagged in states a bombshell is going to be made via facebook live, by a team claiming to be contacted by a woman who is 'haunted' by one of the Moors Murderers. Ok, its just another live, just another person investigating these famous Murders, after all their not the first murders to be investigated, nothing wrong with that, they won't be the last to do it lets be honest. The difference with this case is the complete disregard for the victims' families, namely the fact they have made their feelings very clear on this being shown, any decent logic thinking the person who takes that into account you would think? After all a Paranormal team with no connections to this murderer, not directly involved as much as the families of the victims, would surely do the right thing and at the very least, conduct the investigation of this woman's claims in private, saving the families further heartbreak, but no it is still going to be shown. And to add insult they state they have no intentions of contacting the families involved, just this woman, who one moment is a family member of the victims, and another minute is connected to a family member of the family of a victim, confusing right? The actual brother of Keith Bennett did state on their group page that he was not in support of this going ahead and they did not have the permission of any of the families, did they listen then? no they deleted his comments!

Now let's look at this lady who is afflicted. I agree with many people, that if someone feels they are affected by anything Paranormal, absolutely they must be helped, whether through talking, advice, action but why does she feel the need to publicly do this via a Facebook Live? Why, if this woman has suffered for a while is she suddenly insistent on having her experiences put out there, especially after all the upset of the last few days? why is she not happy doing this in private as she will be well aware of how sensitive this case actually is to those still living with it, saving the families of the victims upset even further? Why has she chosen to make all this public, bringing on more scrutiny for herself through the media, public etc? Why has she chosen a team that albeit has a large following on Facebook but likes arent everything are they,  they may do a lot of investigations but they're not any different to any other team out there? Let's be honest im sure there are more equipt people that can help in her quest privately. Is it persuasion, is she being exploited for fame, is she doing the exploiting of this team, are they doing it to her. Dare I mention the very thin line between the Paranormal and Mental Health, has she checked out these avenues privately. These are the questions that because of the open secrecy of it all, are being asked and quite frankly people have a right to think are happening. It's going to be groundbreaking, but we can't say anymore, she wants it to be known but we can't say any more  .... why because it will ruin the surprise, the media interest etc? More likes?

If this team had an ounce of decency they would listen to the families of the victims, especially of those left to find, and at the very least conduct this in private! And lastly, let me say to all their supporters on behalf of myself this is not and has never been about jealousy or dislike for the team in question. I was an avid supporter of them until a few days ago, one less like now on that page
