SCHOOL’S OUT - Realisation: Part 4 of 4

Ex-lover
Nate had been asleep at Becky’s bedside all night. When she woke up he told Becky her attacker had been arrested, but also someone had paid him to steal her laptop. CCTV backed up the attacker’s story, as he was seen dropping off the laptop. Find out who picked it up in Part 1’s video and who Becky had been having a relationship with…

Abuse
Despite DI Nixon insistence that Kim’s dad, Dr Russell Patterson had no motive for paying for Becky’s laptop to be stolen, the evidence did suggest he did it. Becky had no idea why her laptop was targeted. She would only admit she ended the relationship with the doctor. At the station DC Jo Masters found an incriminating email sent to Becky that was intercepted. See what it means to this case in Part 2’s video.

Denial
Nixon found the doctor’s motive for conspiring to have Becky’s laptop stolen: the email sent from Kim indicated he had been abusing his daughter – he desperately needed to delete it. Becky suspected this, but as Kim didn’t admit any abuse, the issue wasn’t pursued by the school. Kim insisted her dad was not a monster. She didn’t want to lose him too. The doctor prepared a statement, see him read it to Nixon in Part 3’s video…

Cracked
Dr Russell Patterson’s abuse on his daughter Kim is not what the police and Becky suspected. Instead, Kim suffered from covert abuse: rather than an abuse of power, it’s an abuse of love. Kim wasn’t sexually assaulted by her dad. His emotions for Kim were mixed up with the love he has for his wife who died six years ago. See the doctor crack in Part 4’s video…
