I agree Mat, Steph didn't 'sought' out a relationship with a stranger, she knew SH before his conviction. Holly, If you can believe that a stranger (Bamber) is innocent, not sure why you find it hard to believe that Steph believed a person she knew? Many teenagers have violence in their history and a small fraction of those go on to be murderers.
There seems to be some misunderstanding here. I 100% don't believe SH ever thought Hall guilty before he confessed. What I struggle to understand is why anyone would want to become emotionally involved with a prisoner to the extent they marry behind bars?
The difference being I support JB as I believe he's a victim of a MoJ. I'm not emotionally involved with him in any shape or form.
What % of teenage boys spend time in youth offender institutions for violence?
From what I've read I don't believe SH knew Hall pre-prison. They were acquainted through work. There's knowing someone and there's knowing someone?
