Discussion about this date:
I still remember watching Ian Huntley give an interview on Sky News. I immediately thought that there was something "off" or suspicious about him. 🤔 It was not a surprise to me when they arrested him for it. 19 years already... wow. Poor Jessica and Holly. It's hard to imagine that they'd both be nearly 30 by now.
