not just Tesco. Marian also sent bomb threats to his brother's wife and her parents of her husband. The family is another matter, but can not explain why the goal of Tesco. "It was by chance that I would say that there was a deep dark meaning -. But they were not sent messages of Cards "The next will blow you afraid yet ?'"

Life

Marian had reached its lowest point. An intelligent and hardworking young people who had been derailed from the track more people travel along that had to be treated as a violent criminal for his own safety and that of others. But the more we hear about his life, the more you have to wonder why someone does not intervene long ago.

was his mother that his father abused her? "She must have been," said Marian breath. He was the youngest of three by some distance.

"I was in school. Somehow I put my heart in education. 'D go to my room and make tons of writing and try to avoid them. So I have a reasonable degree. I could have the opposite direction, "she said.

At 16, he landed a job in the small co-op across the road from the house, and 21 married. Those were the days. She went to night school, writing and took a job selling the bill. But she was made redundant and joined Woolworths as a manager overnight. Then one night she started crying and could not stop.

"said go home. I remember arriving at my car and next thing I was in a hospital bed to tell me who took an overdose. So I took him to a psychiatrist. Did not 't feel depressed so just let me go. Then it happened again a month later and they took it more seriously. "

Marian began to enter and leave the hospital with failure, recovery and sick again. .. "When I was in hospital for the first time, my husband had an appointment with my doctor's waiting outside and left, said goodbye, and the doctor took me into his office said, "I have something to say - her divorce husband by the irrational behavior. "My husband has not the courage to tell me. It made me feel very bad." I was about 24, she said. " We have been treating children and everything. "I've never seen.

In 1999, she became pregnant and had a child. "In six days was taken to the adoptive parents. I could still see, but you can imagine how painful it was. I tried to convince him not to them but was put on the risk register before he was born. I never intended to hurt or anything. "Could it have been accidental?" No, no. "

"I had visits and then I went to the unity of the mother and baby in Bristol, where I proved he could take care of it. I was allowed to take home. She was 10 months old. That's all fine until I had a relapse. I warned. It took three months to get her back. Then I had another relapse and never returned.

Family

"I went to all the family courts, but I had no intention of detention. But I contacted her mailbox. I can send letters and pictures and birthday cards. 'S write back and send photos. "Her daughter is 11 now, and pretty, he said." I am proud of it, "he said. There is a brief pause." This does not mean they do not miss it. "

Your baby is 18 months when the last time. Marian decided to prove them wrong and got a night job at Tesco. He stayed for a year and said that no one had been sick, but sometimes had to leave. Sainsbury then worked for four years, leaving to train as a caregiver at the hospital where he was treated. She was fine and had been off drugs for two years. She took a course of five days, but could not because he was not physically fit enough. Having given up a secure job, she was devastated. "I was angry against everyone."

Marian attempted suicide by taking sleeping pills and reducing their stomach with a craft knife.

She was arrested, charged and convicted of attempted assault and death threats.
