About this deal

For readers who are fond of non-fiction literature, this is a must-read. Caution should be taken as the graphic details of what happened to Georgia may be triggering to some readers. Reynolds strangled Georgia at his home in Wellington, near Telford, Shropshire, between 8pm and 9pm on May 26 this year after offering to take photographs of her for a modelling portfolio. Having Georgia's mother as the author, imbues this book with a special gravitas. Those of us who are mothers and fathers can only imagine how devastating losing a child is, and losing a child to murder is unimaginable. To have that loss compounded by the realization that her death could have, and should have, been avoided. Happiness is something that has been in short supply for this family since the murder of younger daughter Georgia 10 years ago this month.

Another drag for me was the constant rehashing of how the courts, police, probation, therapists, etc failed them. The first mention was enough, then there was the report itself, then a constant rehashing of how they failed to keep Georgia safe.

Who is Jamie Reynolds?

Looks at aspects of life during the time of Plautus and Terence to examine the housing marriage children slaves finances religion and general life Social and Private Life at Rome in the Time of Plautus and Terence by Georgia Williams Leffingwell – eBook Details i can’t ever put myself in the shoes of georgia’s family and all i can say is that i admire the strength they bring to the fight for justice for their daughter. This is an extremely raw account of an unimaginable tragedy and I felt my heart go out to Lynette, Steve and Scarlett and Georgia. Having said that, because of its emotion, it was sometimes difficult to read.

Now Georgia’s mum Lynnette has ­spoken of their heartache of losing their beloved daughter in her book, Our Georgia. We still have nightmares,” says Lynnette. “One of us will wake the other up at night screaming. We help each other through them. I relive the day as soon as I wake up or when I try to sleep. I feel drained most of the time, it’s on your mind constantly. It never goes away.”To have your daughter murdered and violated after death would destroy any parents. To take on a police force that let it happen is brave beyond words. And it details their fight for answers from West Mercia Police, the force Steve served in as a murder squad detective. Yet at the same time I wondered, even if everything had been done by the book, would Jamie have still killed? I would say he would have. But if the justice system had worked perfectly Georgia's family would NOT have anyone to blame. And even with the joyful event for Scarlett, now 32 and a trained midwife, something will be missing.

Heartbroken family remember murdered daughter 10 years after

Reynolds was charged with murder, and Steve and Lynnette made a harrowing journey to lay flowers at the scene. “I couldn’t believe our lives had come to this,” she says. “Sat in a police car with a bunch of roses on our way to visit the woods where this murderer had dumped our daughter.The setting is Great Britain not the USA. Georgia was a lovely girl who was sassy, feisty, hardworking, determined, and knew what she wanted to do with her life. She had a close circle of friends that was ever growing. She never dreamed that one of those friends was not who they said and acted like they should have. We soon find out that Georgia was murdered, not by some unknown person, but someone who was supposed to be a friend. Part memoir, part true crime, Our Georgia - The Devastating Murder of My Daughter By a Killer Who Should've Been Stopped by Lynnette Williams and journalist Robin Eveleigh is one of those books that's hard to put down. Physical pain I can stand, but I’ve never known mental pain like this. It’s torture, years of torture.” I'm not going to describe how Georgia died, where they found her body, or what happens to Jamie after he's arrested. I'll let you find all of that out when you read the book. However, I will mention the important things here: Georgia didn't deserve to die the way that she did, and her parents do a solid job of memorializing her in the book.
