ELLIOT TURNER
I love you, dont Say you'll kill me
BEAUTIFUL EMILY LONGLEY WAS SLIPPING FROM ELLIOT TURNER’S GRASP AND HE FELT POWERLESS TO STOP HER LEAVING HIM, SO THE SPOILT MUMMY’S BOY THREW A DEADLY TANTRUM TO STOP ANYONE ELSE FROM HAVING HER
The area of Queen’s Park in England’s seaside town of Bournemouth is an affluent neighbourhood, with homes worth close to £1 million. Conversely, the once-pastel yellow bungalow belonging to the Turner family nestled in Queenswood Avenue is rather modest in comparison. But during the first week of May 2011, the cosy home fell under intense scrutiny for more than just its value when the body of a beautiful female New Zealand student was discovered inside the bedroom of 19-year-old Elliot. The dead girl was his ex-girlfriend, 17-year-old Emily Longley.
Initially, her death looked like a tragic accident, but as paramedics, police and forensic experts scratched beneath the surface, they grew ever-more certain that the pampered boy, with a history of drug and alcohol abuse and a reputation as a chauvinistic show-off, had snapped and killed Emily.
His parents, most notably his mother Anita, launched an intense series of campaigns to insist on his innocence. But behind closed doors they were prepared to help him get away with murder. While suspicions mounted against Turner, there was no tangible evidence that would deliver justice for Emily and her devastated friends and family. The police had no option but to go to extremes to catch her killer.
The Times that Emily wasn’t an angry teenager but one that wanted to push the boundaries. She also recalled her daughter’s thirst for life and the fun things it had to offer.
After visiting Bournemouth over Christmas in 2009, it was agreed that Emily would move to the seaside town in 2010 to stay with her paternal grandparents. She had applied to study for a business national diploma at the well-established Brockenhurst College in the neighbouring county of Hampshire and had been accepted. Photographs taken of the gorgeous blonde girl, who also aspired to be a model, show her smiling and grinning. She radiates an amiable personality, a sentiment echoed by all who knew her. While she was studying she was given a job at fashion retailer Topshop. The store was a few metres from the jewellery shop that Turner’s father owned and Turner sometimes worked in. It was just three months after she began college that Emily met Turner on a double-date with another friend.
A spoilt ‘mummy’s boy’, Turner was born in Birmingham on 25 May 1991. The wealth he boasted about as a teenager was derived from his grandfather Gerard Broadway,
