My sister took her own life after making sick pact with online chat room stranger who flew over from US to watch her die
Aimee had been a happy child but withdrew into an online forum during the pandemic 'RABBIT HOLE OF DESPAIR' My sister took her own life after making sick pact with online chat room stranger who flew over from US to watch her die Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A WRITER has described how a man flew from the US to watch her sister take her own life after meeting on a "sick" online forum. Adele Zeynep Walton, 26, told how her sister Aimee was discovered dead by cops in a hotel room in October 2022.

The sisters - who were raised in Southampton, Hampshire, both had active online lives growing up, but Aimee more so. Adele said that Aimee, who was neurodivergent, was bullied as a teenager and turned to online communities instead. When the pandemic hit, Aimee withdrew even further into the online world, her sister - writing in The Telegraph - explained. She broke up with her boyfriend and spent an increasing amount of time in her room. The first Covid lockdown in England was announced in March 2020, and the third was on January 2021. It was in October 2022 that Adele - who was 25 at the time - and her parents were told that Aimee was dead. Aimee was found in a hotel room in Slough, Berkshire, 60 miles away from her home - with a stranger. They had met through a sick online forum that "partners" up people looking to end their own lives. This forum was also how she got her hands on the substance that killed her - reportedly from Kenneth Law, who has been linked to 88 deaths in the UK. According to The New York Times, the forum was founded by two men who run several "incel" websites. Adele took it upon herself to visit the thread and said many of the posts said: "Your family don't care about you" and "You should do it." She told The Guardian that the man who was with her little sister could have been "living out a sick fantasy as an incel who wants to see a young and vulnerable woman end her life'. The man told police he had been working for the 11 days he spent in the hotel room with Aimee. Adele wrote in The Telegraph: "This forum has taken at least 50 UK lives, including my sister. "From looking at the forum myself, I can see just how easy it is to end up in a rabbit hole of despair, where vulnerable users are told their loved ones don't care about them. "Being informed by police that Aimee died in a hotel room with a stranger who she met on this forum, and who flew from the US to witness her death, still haunts me." Adele now campaigns about the harms of the online world and has written a book called Logging Off: The Human Cost of Our Digital World.

Former cannabis factory helps Lliswerry pond into bloom
The fertiliser has been used to create an explosion of colour in a picturesque part of the city. Officers took ownership of the unused fertiliser while dismantling the cannabis cultivation in a disused factory last year, leading to two arrests. Gwent Police donated the fertiliser to Lliswerry Pond and, during the winter months, leaseholder Ben Edmunds used it in raised beds and borders around the Aberthaw Road site. Police Community Support Officer (PCSO) Joanne Spiteri, from the neighbourhood policing team at Alway, visited the fishery to see the marigolds, busy lizzies and wild flowers flourishing at first-hand. Sergeant Chris Hopkin said: "PCSO Spiteri and her colleagues work closely with Ben to help keep the area around Lliswerry Pond safe from anti-social behaviour and associated crime. "Back in November, our officers dismantled a cannabis factory at a disused warehouse in Kelvedon Street and we were delighted to donate the unused fertiliser to Lliswerry Pond to help with their outdoor floral displays. 'By re-purposing the fertiliser, it has certainly helped to bring some additional colour to the site and puts items that are often thought to be used for criminal purposes to use that benefit our communities. "Lliswerry Pond is a jewel of the local community that many residents enjoy visiting, particularly when the sun is shining during the summer months. 'I hope that members of the community are enjoying these floral displays too.' Ben Edmunds and Leanne Bill lease Lliswerry Pond from Newport City Council through their company, Angling Watch UK. He said: 'We pride ourselves in being at the heart of our community, and we're delighted to have benefited positively from the dismantling of the cannabis factory last year. 'Our floral displays look fantastic – the marigolds, busy lizzies and wild flowers from Keep Wales Tidy are flowering beautifully in the raised beds. "We have an excellent working relationship with Gwent Police and the neighbourhood policing team at Alway and I want to thank the local community for their continued support." If you have any information on drug supply in your area, no matter how big or small you think it might be, please get in touch with Gwent Police. The production, sale and supply of illegal drugs can have far-reaching effects on our communities, and we'll continue to do all we can to take action and protect vulnerable people from harm. Anyone with relevant information can contact police via our website, call on 101, or send us a direct message on our Facebook or X channels, so that we can act.

"He went to Wembley to watch England and he recently went to watch the Eubank vs Benn fight. He was Nottingham Forest mad too." Nottingham Police are probing the incident.
