    The whole affair shows that the ‘justice’ system does not work. It was not fit for purpose to actually help these clearly damaged people and they needed something much better where neither side was going to ‘win’. It was all for a spectacle, a show. We hated it at the time and hate it now. There was little point and they would have been better served by a restorative and transformative justice system out of the public eye. They both just needed to be kept away from each other as a result of any true justice system, and mental health etc help, and he definitely needed to pay her back.

    The attention, hate etc wasn’t useful for either of them and it shows a servere lack of actual justice in the current system because it is not at all built for it.
