The mother of murdered schoolgirl Brianna Ghey today reveals she has held a 'very emotional' meeting with the family of one of the teenage killers at which they felt 'a bit of a connection'.
Esther Ghey has revealed why she met the mother of twisted teen killer Scarlett Jenkinson in an 'emotional' face to face meeting as the two mothers united in grief.
Ms Ghey said that 'both of us are mothers who are trying to navigate something that nobody should ever have gone through'. Jenkinson aged 11 with her parents Brian Jenkinson and Emma Sutton. Ms Ghey said she wanted to meet with Jenkinson's mother to know how she is feeling Ms Ghey said: 'I genuinely don't feel any of those towards Scarlett's parents and I actually don't feel that towards Scarlett either, because I know that all of these emotions and feelings like hate is only going to impact me.
The extraordinary encounter comes after Ms Ghey met Rishi Sunak to press him on her campaign for mobile phone companies to do more to prevent teenagers from being able to access harmful content and restrict social media to over-16s. Jenkinson, whose mother Emma Sutton, 49, is a former teacher at a Catholic high school, had downloaded a special browser on to her device to watch real-life torture and murder on the dark web.
Both Jenkinson and Ratcliffe were sentenced earlier last month. Jenkinson will serve a minimum of 22 years, while Ratcliffe will serve a minimum of 20 years 'I wanted to sit down with Scarlett's family to find out how the last year had affected them,' she said afterwards. 'I didn't feel any anger or resentment towards Scarlett's mum, in fact it showed that tragedies have far-reaching ripples.
She added: 'It was emotional. I'm really glad that we had the meeting. Both Scarlett's mum and uncle are very nice people, they are just normal people, and I think that what has happened has impacted their family massively just the same it has impacted mine. And for her own part, Ms Ghey said the encounter – coupled with the 'kindness' she has been shown by the nation at large – showed there was 'hope' for 'unity' and 'for people to be better to one another as well'.
Ms Ghey said she had 'lots of filters' on Facebook as 'people can send horrible things', but added: 'Every now and again, some slip through.' And one of them was: 'Your son died because of you. You are a failure.'
