Title: Tracie Andrews
Post by: big-goolies on December 04, 2012, 04:07:PM
i see her release in July 2011 was kept rather low key
Lee Harveys parents fought tirelessly to keep her in prison

I thought it had been all over, like when she had facial surgery, I saw it in the papers. I don't think there was much time between Tracie Andrews and Karen Matthews coming out but I can't be sure.
Jane Andrews is about due for coming out too, if that hasn't happened.

"only a spur of the moment domestic murder" That makes it ok does it?
Have you ever been a victim of domestic violence? As for Lee Harveys parents, i dont blame them for wanting her kept inside, they must be devastated.

She had a bad temper and often turned on him, then stabbed him. Sorry, but she should still be locked up.

I dont think 42 stab wounds is classed as a domestic?

I agree with you Andrea, domestic violence is horrendous and a murdered child, however old is just that no matter whether it was planned or a whim.  She must be a controlling bully.

Thats exactly what she was, Maggie.

This is the sort of attitude that was widespread in the 70's and 80's, "oh its only a domestic". Domestic violence is shameful and affects those involved for years, it never leaves you or your children.

Can't imagine how you ever deal with something like that.  The urge to kill must be very strong, I don't believe in the death penalty but I can understand that.

Iremember that as well Andrea, but also as well as early release we also funded this for her. In November 2009 Tracie Andrews underwent a submandibular osteotomy operation to correct a class III occlusion. Specifically, this corrected her bottom jaw from protruding over her top jaw. The fact that the operation was paid for by the NHS was the cause of some controversy.[5] Were not such a bad nation after all?

You said it was just a domestic murder nuggy, that is the attitude victims of domestic abuse faced in the 70's and 80's, it wasnt taken seriously. Domestic or not, its still murder.

I watched the documetary about it, andrews own mother appeared in it.
She was the violent one, not him.

how do we know she was the only one who was violent how do we know he wasnt violent to her as well.

She had a knife with her and then tried to cover the whole thing up. She was together enough after she killed Lee to make up the scenario about the other car. If it was domestic violence, she could have admitted it and it would have been taken into consideration but she didn't. Personally, I think she had anger issues and she lost it that night.

They were star-cross'd lovers who had survived the Thatcher years, yet fate meant that Lee Harvey's life was not to be spared as Juliet committed the crime, awoke from her potion, served fourteen years for his murder and never expressed the slightest remorse. https://youtu.be/laPrJXyaqFA

A far fetched story from Andrews.

Road rage does happen, but for a man to get out of his car & stab another man 42 times with a knife he had in his possession. What was Andrews doing during the attack, watching ?

The Bamber case shows killers will make up unlikely stories. The Sion Jenkins case shows that once a killer has denied it was them, they will take their denial all the way to court.

It doesn't seem likely that Sheila Caffell could 'make-up an unlikely story'.  If Sheila could recount the content of the hallucinations she experienced, it could considerably benefit our understanding of what took place in the farmhouse.  Obviously that is never going to happen - because she perished as a consequence of the same hallucinations. 
Title: Re: Tracie Andrews
Post by: lookout on April 07, 2018, 05:03:PM
Those hallucinations are very real to the sufferer too. To them they are " real life " that is happening to them and coupled with the voices giving orders as is usually the way,those orders have to be obeyed.
