Saffron Kerr, 26, says Lynne Beveridge branded her a 'liar' over her horror ordeal at the hands of her vile son Kyle, 29.

And she revealed the sickening claims have been backed up by other members of the group Justice for Innocent Men Scotland.
Saffron, who bravely waived her right to anonymity, was a child when Kyle Beveridge first attacked her.
The fiend is behind bars after being handed an extended 16-year sentence last September.
He abused three women in Fife between 2013 and 2021, including four rapes.
But Saffron revealed: 'JIMS posted a photo of his family, giving their full support and hopeful wishes for his appeal, and describing him as 'an innocent man'.
'I replied to the Facebook, saying I was sickened and asking why anyone would wish an appeal for a child rapist to go well.
'They told me I was afraid of a fair trial and the truth, insinuating I was a liar.
"His mum, a JIMS member, made posts calling me a liar.
"I feel targeted by the group as they all back each other, refusing to acknowledge anyone's view but their own.'
We told on Friday how JIMS accused sex assault victims of capitalising on ordeals to find 'fame or make money'.

Beveridge's mum appears on their online page with her mouth taped at a protest.
A JIMS spokesman said of Saffron's claims: 'We've never made contact with her.
"We deny that our organisation has engaged in any form of harassment.'

He assisted the man before being taken to an address in Regent Hill where the rape was reported to have taken place.

Woman mauled by ‘pocket bully' which ‘sunk its teeth into her leg' leaving her ‘traumatised'
A WOMAN has told how she was left traumatised after being mauled by an "pocket bully" in a savage attack. Gina Evans, from Bournemouth, was bitten on her left calf by the dog on July 1. 3 3 3 Gina was rushed to hospital after the attack where she stayed for four days and required 22 stitches in her injured leg. Since then, she says her life has been "absolute hell". Her own dog was also left with three puncture wounds despite her frantic attempts to protect it. The "pocket bully" attacked after Gina returned to her home after walking the dog that afternoon. 'I put my dog behind me to stop her from getting hurt and he just sunk his teeth into my leg,' she said. Gina has been left traumatised by the incident and has been "stuck between four walls" since, adding she's been thinking about moving house as a result. On one visit to the vet, she recalls how a dog of the same breed was in there at the same time. "It was muzzled and oh my god, I was sweating," she said. Upon her return from hospital, she found the dog hadn't been put down after attacking her. Instead, she discovered it had been sold to another family with two children. Moment black bear creeps into family home - before being chased away by TINY dog This is despite Gina having had run-ins with the same dog on previous occasions too. The daylight mauling last month marked the fourth time it had tried to attack Gina and her dog. On one such occasion she was forced to throw her pet over a nearby wall to stop it being attacked. A spokesperson for Dorset Police said: "At around 4.20pm on Tuesday July 1 2025, we received a report from the ambulance service that the victim – a local woman aged in her 50s – had been bitten by a dog in Campbell Road in Bournemouth, sustaining a serious leg injury. "She attended hospital for treatment to her injury. "Officers have directly spoken to the dog owner and enquiries are ongoing. "The victim has been updated with developments of the investigation. "We would advise members of the public to continue to report incidents of this nature to us so we can investigate further and take appropriate action." This follows a spate of dangerous dog attacks in recent weeks. Just last week, a victim of a suspected XL Bully attack was forced to climb over a fence and leap into a river to escape the crazed dog. It left the man hospitalised with police now appealing for information to track down the owner. That same week a seven-year-old boy was left with serious injuries after he was mauled by a dangerously out-of-control XL Bully too. He was savaged by his own family dog in the kitchen of his home suffering serious injuries. Which dog breeds are banned in the UK? THERE are specific regulations in place that prohibit certain dog breeds from being owned or bred in the UK. So what are the illegal dogs in the UK and why are they illegal? Here's what we know. Which dog breeds are illegal in the UK? People tend to think of large, vicious dogs when they imagine being bitten by one. But the truth is that many types of dogs are known to bite humans, whether provoked or not. However, it's important to remember that just because a breed tends to bite humans, that doesn't mean that they all do. British law determines five breeds of dog are illegal to own, breed, sell or give away. These are an XL Bully, Pit Bull Terrier, Japanese Tosa, Dogo Argentino and Fila Brasileiro.

Mike Ashley demands investigation into Boohoo founder's debt collecting
Mike Ashley has demanded an independent investigation into attempts by Boohoo's founder to collect a £100,000 personal debt by taking a cut of payments from one of its suppliers. In a letter to Tim Morris, Boohoo's independent chairman, lawyers for Mr Ashley's Frasers Group said its founder and executive vice chairman Mahmud Kamani must be suspended 'immediately' pending the outcome of an investigation. Lawyers at White and Case said they had sent the letter, which was also published on the London Stock Exchange, directly to Mr Morris 'due to the seriousness of the issues raised with regards to the conduct' of Mr Kamani. The demand comes after The Telegraph last week revealed Mr Kamani's debt collection demands with one supplier, publishing angry WhatsApp messages sent by the retail tycoon. Frasers Group, which owns Sports Direct and House of Fraser, is Boohoo's biggest shareholder in Boohoo with a 30pc stake. Lawyers for Frasers said they were seeking 'urgent reassurance' that the revelations would be 'properly and independently investigated'. The letter said: 'Frasers also considers that it is your responsibility, as well as that of the entire board of directors of Boohoo, to protect Boohoo and its shareholders from Mr Kamani and any of his associates who may be complicit in these matters. 'These allegations are very serious and damaging to the reputation of boohoo. If proven, it appears that Mr Kamani may have breached his duties as a director of Boohoo and could also have committed various criminal offences.' In the messages, Mr Kamani, who retains a 12.5pc stake in Boohoo, claimed he was owed £100,000 by Anjum Majid, the father of the owner of PDQ Textiles. He instructed a middleman in its supply chain to deduct 20p per garment from payments to PDQ Textiles, a Manchester company with factories in Pakistan, in order to collect the personal debt. In the WhatsApp conversation from 2023, Mr Kamani said: 'I want my £100k... please deduct 20p per garment from all his son's orders... with immediate effect all deliveries from today.'
