The media has had it in for Bailey since he took them to court.

"She died in a lunatic frenzied attack by a madman." I would not assume man. The cold case team were investigating claims that a male friend of Sophie had a jealous wife. "Marie Farrell contacted the Gards. She didn’t need to." So? "14 year olds don’t make up stories of confessions to murder." It was his mother that made a statement attesting to what her son had heard. The boy didn't even mention the conversation he had with Bailey after it took place, so not exactly traumatised was he. In fact he still accepted lifts off Bailey! He has never attended any court hearings and has never made any claims since, it has always been his mother. " Christmas trees do not leave scratches" Yes they do, try climbing one, topping one and then dragging it home. Jules' daughters both made statements attesting that he had scratches before the murder. Another person witnessed him dragging the tree home. "Sophie mentioned the name Ian Bailey to friends in France." No, she did not. "A whole load of circumstantial evidence builds a compelling case." No it does not. Hence why the Irish prosecutors refused to even charge Bailey, twice!

@davidmccarter9479 Facts matter, even if you don't care about them and would convict a potentially innocent person. It is frightening that people like you can serve on a jury when you lack simple critical thinking skills.

@bernadetteflynn5005 Feel free to present the evidence against Bailey that you have but the prosecution do not. The prosecution that tore apart their own police investigation and refused to charge Bailey, twice. I suspect your "evidence" will be the same nonsense repeated by the ignorant watching Netflix and reading Nick Foster's laughable, inaccurate, and biased book. When even the PROSECUTION say that the evidence is not there, we should be listening to them. Nick Foster is a grifter and you fell for his lies, he literally leaches off the families grief.

@charlesd3a In the Sophie case there were initially over 50, in just 10 days there was only one. How is it even possible to properly investigate 50 down to 1 in just two weeks? If you search for Karl Heinz Wolney you'll come across articles on the other suspects that never get mentioned like him, another is George Pecout. The cold case investigation also mentions that Sophie had met with two French men who were hiding out from a criminal gang. There is a lot more to Sophie's life that is not mentioned, such as that, the affairs she had, the pending divorce, her husband having a child born just a year after her death and so on. The criminality of the people who gave statements against Bailey doesn't get mentioned either. There are some real shady "witnesses" when you dig into them. One of them alleged that he was bribed with drugs and money to give a statement. The police were investigated and found to have removed pages from their jobs books, missing evidence, missing key statements etc., they were even secretly recorded discussing possibly altering statements, no evidence was found of it though, but they did discuss it, so did they? Who knows! The detectives from that time refused to cooperate with the investigation into them.
