Robert’s history - which included acquittals for the murder of an ex-partner who was found shot in the face on his property, and sexual assault charges involving two schoolgirls.

Two recalled how Amber had shared stories of abuse with them - including instances where Robert Geeves had allegedly plied her with alcohol, tied her up, and had sex with her.

And the couple’s son Robbie told the court that his mother had referred to his ex-girlfriend as a “surrogate” and that both parents had turned up at his home in the dead of night asking him to accept Amber’s child as his "little brother”.

The prosecution also tendered an agreement Amber made Robert sign, promising not to take her child, as well as a will she’d created stipulating her aunt be given custody of the baby in the event of her death.

"There was little sign, in the sea of evidence in this case, that Amber was ever shown the love she needed or deserved," Justice Lonergan said, adding that it is clear “beyond a reasonable doubt" that she is dead.

But the judge ultimately found a critical “problem” with the prosecution’s case - there was “no satisfactory evidence” that Anne and Robert still held a desire for more children when Amber became pregnant.

This is why I fucking hate the legal system, zero justice from brain dead judges.

Honestly it was just a shallow merge of the Apple aesthetic and biblical stories, probably because I've been watching a lot of Good Omens lately.

But if I wanted to dissect my thinking. Apples logo is a bitten apple, biting into the apple led to people being able to think, think differently was Apples logo, 8 bits = 1 byte.

Ooh forever war, how very 1984.

Maybe in a few years they were forever at war with China instead.
