Crime Analyst

Three teenage boys were convicted of 17 sexual offences, including 11 rapes of two separate girls, one at knifepoint. They were sent home with a £26 fine.    This case should alarm everyone – and it is far from isolated. Laura continues her analysis of Judge Nicholas Rowland’s sentencing remarks including the lack of understanding by the Judge regarding grooming, the power imbalance, vulnerability, coercion, planning and exploitation and the boys’ histories which has resulted in a flawed risk assessment and unduly lenient. Laura has examined the case in referring to the problematic sentencing guidelines and the context of rising levels of male violence to girls and women.    In this episode, Laura explores:  What the language reveals about how victims and offenders are framed;  The minimisation of rape, coercion, intimidation, grooming and planning;  How victim blaming can appear in courtroom language;  What was prioritised — and what was ignored;  The failure to properly recognise grooming, power imbalance, and removal of consent; Why the boys’ histories and escalating behaviours matter;  The concerning lack of sentencing guidance for serious sexual offences committed by children;  What this means for risk, accountability, public safety, and prevention;  Why judicial training and a Judicial Accountability Framework are urgently needed.  Laura also discusses the wider implications of the case in the context of increasing male violence against women and girls and asks urgent questions about who the criminal justice system is protecting.    If you have not already listened, Laura previously analysed the broader Hampshire serial gang rape case, the offenders’ histories, the warning signs, escalating behaviours, and the systemic failures that allowed dangerous patterns to go unchecked. Listen here:  https://www.crime-analyst.com/convicted-serial-rapists-walk-free-with-ps26-fine/    Laura also discusses the petition calling for Judge Nicholas Rowland to be investigated and for the introduction of an independent Judicial Accountability Framework.    ACT NOW:  Sign the petition  Write to your MP  Write to Justice Secretary David Lammy  Write to Prime Minister Keir Starmer  Write to Attorney General Richard Hermer    Letter Templates Enough is enough.    🎧 Listen.

Three teenage boys were convicted of 17 sexual offences including 11 rapes of two separate girls, one at knifepoint. Despite this, Judge Nicholas Rowland determined that none of the boys should go to prison as he did not want to ‘criminalize them unnecessarily.’    To understand this egregious decision that has quite rightly sparked national outrage, Laura shares her forensic deconstruction of Judge Rowland’s 23-page sentencing remarks in the context of the sentencing guideline and the increasing levels of male violence to girls and women. It’s worse than you might have thought.    This is not just about one case. Laura raises urgent questions about who the criminal justice system is protecting drawing on her experience as former Head of the Homicide Prevention Unit and Head of the Sexual Offences Section at New Scotland Yard.    In this episode, Laura examines:  Judge Nicholas Rowland's sentencing remarks and his rationale behind them in reference to the sentencing guidelines;  The lack of specific sentencing guidance relating to rape and indecent image offences committed by children;  How the boys grooming and planning behaviours were overlooked;  The role of coercion, intimidation, and power imbalance;  The removal of consent and the realities of victim compliance;  Planning, premeditation, and offender decision-making;  Victim blaming and the language used throughout the proceedings;  The representation of victims, offenders, and risk within the courtroom;  Psychopathy, callousness, and concerning behavioural indicators;  Why pattern recognition and behavioural analysis matter in assessing future risk;  The broader implications for public safety, accountability, and prevention.  If you have not already listened, Laura previously analysed the broader Hampshire serial gang rape case, the offenders' histories, the warning signs, escalating behaviours, and the systemic failures that allowed dangerous patterns to go unchecked. Listen here:  https://www.crime-analyst.com/convicted-serial-rapists-walk-free-with-ps26-fine/    Laura also discusses the petition calling for Judge Nicholas Rowland to be investigated and for the introduction of an independent Judicial Accountability Framework.    ACT NOW:  Sign the petition Write to your MP  Write to Justice Secretary David Lammy  Write to Prime Minister Keir Starmer  Write to Attorney General Richard Hermer  Letter Templates Enough is enough.    🎧 Listen.

Two separate girls were raped by three boys, one at knifepoint, in Fordingbridge, Hampshire, in November 2024 and January 2025.  The three teenagers filmed the rapes and posted them on-line, blatantly laughing. The case went to trial, and they were found guilty of 11 counts of rape out of 17 sexual offences.  However, Judge Nicholas Rowland stated, ‘None of you need go to prison today’ and that he didn’t want to crimiminalize them UNNECCESSARILY. This case has rightly caused national and international outrage and Laura is calling for the Judge to be investigated and for a judicial accountability framework. Anger is not enough – you can help and act now.   For a decade Laura worked at New Scotland Yard analysing violent crime, identifying patterns, linking offences, and helping catch serial rapists and serial killers. One lesson was clear: nobody starts with rape or murder. There are escalating patterns of behaviour prior and opportunities to stop them.   In this urgent episode, Laura examines the Hampshire serial gang rape case and the boys histories which show at least one is on a pathway to murder. Laura analyses the case through the lens of behavioural analysis, risk assessment, offender pattern recognition, and public safety.   Drawing on her experience as former Head of the Homicide Prevention Unit and Head of the Sexual Offences Section at New Scotland Yard, Laura explains why this case is not an anomaly, why accountability matters, and why the system's repeated failure to identify and intervene with dangerous offenders puts women and girls at risk.   Laura highlights: • escalating dangerous patterns of behaviour; • why pattern recognition and near misses identification matters to prevent serious violence and homicides; • How systems and people in them repeatedly fail to join the dots; • The dangerous consequences of minimising male violence against women and girls; • Why accountability matters for victims, survivors, and public safety; • The parallels with other high-profile cases, including Levi Bellfield, John Worboys, and Ian Huntley; • The role misogyny in decision-making and outcomes, and;   Laura also discusses the petition calling for Judge Nicholas Rowland to be investigated and for the introduction of an independent Judicial Accountability Framework.   ACT NOW: ·       Sign the petition ·       Write to your MP ·       Write to Justice Secretary David Lammy ·       Write to Prime Minister Keir Starmer ·       Write to Attorney General Richard Hermer   Letter Templates Enough is enough.   🎧 Listen.

In this remastered episode, Laura discusses a significant update in Gabby Petito’s case. On Monday 8th August 2022, almost a year to the date of the Moab City Police stop of Gabby’s white van, Gabby’s mother, Nichole and step-father Jim Schmidt and Gabby’s father, Joe and step-mother Tara Petito filed a notice of intent to sue Moab City Police in Utah. The lawsuit went ahead accusing the Police of “negligent failure” to first understand the law and enforce it. They also accuse Moab City Police of “wrongful death” stating that Gabby’s “death was caused by their wrongful acts or neglect.” They are seeking $50m in damages. The lawsuit was dismissed by Judge Torgerson in 2024. However, it’s not over. The case has been referred to the Utah Supreme Court. For the latest update in the case listen to this episode.
