    Surely the behaviour leading up to this should have warranted more than just a visit? She’s obviously an absolute nutter and police were aware she was stalking and harassing this poor bloke for 2 years.

    Abuse against men needs to be taken more seriously.

  2. >Hewlett and Paul Belton met when they worked at the Linda McCartney frozen food factory in Fakenham and had a kiss in his car.

    Is it just me that feels like this was written by a work experience 12 year old?

    This so needs a TV adaptation.

    I want Dobby from Peep Show to play the mad woman.

  4. “How to successfully hire a hitman” is a question you really can’t ask without it being suspicious but actually want to know purely for curiosity’s sake

  5. Whoever this “hitman” was probably got a fantastic payday. She likely used a website like Coinbase or Binance to buy cryptocurrency which could be traced back to her and I doubt her opsec was great to begin with. Any supposed “hitman” you can find on the dark web is certainly a scam or even a honeypot.

    I don’t condone scamming, but if someone gets scammed trying to arrange for someone else to get murdered they 100% deserve that and I’d cheer the scammer on. Plus it means they might not have money left for a *real* hitman, if such a thing is even possible to find.

    Either way she’s spent a large amount of money to arrange for somebody else to get murdered, scam or no scam. She’s proven herself dangerous and deserves to be behind bars, preferably for longer.
