"What is it about? "

It's about the attack in a park in 2007 in Lancashire by five youths on Sophie and her boyfriend (which resulted in Sophie's death) simply for dressing differently.

Such a sad thing. To be attacked for your individuality. I adore Sophie's mum the s.o.p.h.I.e charity is doing great things.

When her mother described the wounds of both the bodies but especially Sophie's my hairs on my arms stood up in rage .I have no idea where her mother gets the strength from to carry on and not be consumed by anger and hate over what was done to her daughter .

Did they get the attackers? violent Crime has always been around, and for This one case alone, I,d bring back Hanging, it didn,t stop people Murdering In the past and there were always new Executions and occasional Innocents who were wrongly sentenced, but any Hideous Crime should have a death penalty, Unfortuneately the loved ones cannot be Returned, but just locking up the Offender is not a Proper sentence for me and never will be, when hanging was stopped in this Country with ruth ellis, The judicial Service turned their backs on violent Crime in this country.

Post like these are exactly the reason we have a police force, judiciary and prisons service, as imperfect as they are.

" when hanging was stopped in this Country with ruth ellis, "

Hanging was not stopped with Ruth Ellis though as she was executed in 1955 and the last person to be hanged was in 1964.

I'd rather not turn this into a hanging debate if we can..

The program was a memorial to a daughter who was killed for no other reason in my eyes than because she dressed differently .

watch the program its very sad but also inspiring especially how her mother handles herself .

I was left with a feeling of disbelieve that a human being or in this case a group of human beings could do what they did purely because someone was or in this case two people were individuals who dressed to express their individuality.
