I need your help please. https://edm.parliament.uk/early-day-motion/62418

It has been a tough few weeks for me, and people keep asking me for updates on my quest to find Jools’ online information.

Last Saturday (27th) should have been my son’s 17th birthday; he should have been bounding down the stairs, begging to go out early for his first drive. My house was quiet. All anniversaries, birthdays, important dates and holiday seasons are hard, but I found the run-up to this one particularly hard this year. I spent the day surrounded by Jools’ friends and their parents. They come every anniversary of his death and on his birthdays (one of his friends always makes a cake, and this year was no different), and I adore seeing them, but how they are all young, almost adults now (17-18). Jools was 14 when he took his life. His friends have grown up so much in the last 27 months since he left us. Now driving, etc, and whilst I love seeing them, it is hard to wonder what Jools would be doing or how much taller than me he probably would be now with his future all ahead of him. There were plenty of tears from all, but we did manage to smile occasionally and reminisce about Jools' wonderfully kind, funny, and loving nature.

So where am I now with things? After being knocked off my feet for a while, I’m standing back up and ready to proceed.

I’ve paid £6800 for the solicitor to review all the information I have gathered about Jools’ online world myself.

The forensics company that I initially used at the cost of £1200 isn't suitable for for the High Court, so I have to pay another £3960 to a new forensics company to scrape Jools’ actual physical devices. I feel the police should have done this during the initial inquest.

I have knowledge of someone who previously looked at links on his deceased daughter's phone. Then, he was charged with having indecent images on his computer and is now on the sexual offenders register. So I’m staying well clear of this and have no option but pay for the solicitor to trawl this data at an estimated cost of another £6800.

Then, I need to pay for a clinical psychologist to write a report for the courts to confirm whether whatever they find could have affected the Jools. No idea what that will cost.

Next will be an application to the Attorney General. If they grant what’s known as a FIAT, we can then apply to the High Court with more solicitors and barristers and High Court fee costs to ask them to allow a fresh inquest so that the Coroner will have the right to demand ALL information be released from the social media companies.

It’s exhausting and expensive, and I still don't understand why social media companies wouldnt try to help me more.

So the fight continues…. and I really, really hate doing this part, but if anyone can help with legal fees, I would be so very grateful; even the price of a coffee from all the people who have offered help would go a long way to help with these ever-mounting fees, here is the link https://lnkd.in/eicVhkqK
