His mother was a nurse and they moved to Florid and he ended up committing a stranger rape as a 14 year old and spent 20 years in prison.
She was from a wealthy, aristocratic family (her dad was page boy to Queen Elizabeth II) but went off the rails as a teenager. She was sent to stay at Synagogue, Church of All Nations in Lagos, Nigeria. A church who have had a large number of allegations made of systemic physical and sexual abuse.
They met by chance and were living in a tent for some time before they were in temporary accommodation with their 4 children when she was pushed out of the window while pregnant with her 5th causing social services to remove the rest of their children.
It seems to be a pretty tragic case of abuse, mental illness and incompetent and underfunded services that’s resulted in at least one miscarriage, one infant death and 4 children being raised in care.

This goes so far beyond anything I could ever imagine anyone doing even with intrusive thoughts. Mental health issues with the ability to conspire to hurt people is another level.

Yeah, I was referring more to the behavior in court since I didn’t know anything about the actual events leading to the charges.
The behavior described in the article strongly reminded me of some relatives who had bi-polar disorder.

Oh sorry. My bad.
I get the impression that people act up in the court room to add weight to any radio-rental defense that they want to claim them or after.
