A 16 year old school girl in inner city Manchester held captive by seven people that she believed had been her friends. For seven days they beat and tortured her until eventually they drove her to an area of secluded scrubland on the outskirts of Manchester, doused her in gasoline and burnt her alive. She somehow managed to survive just long enough to tell the police who her attackers were. A story of a petty grievance (a missing jacket) the crime occurred just two months before the James Bulger murder and the two were linked together by the press and turned into symbols; symbols of how low the country had sunk, of the state of the nation, of moral decline, of the breakdown of the family unit, of anything you wanted them to represent. For a brief moment it seemed that everyone, from newspapers to political parties, were seeking to exploit the publics revulsion over the two murders. When Suzanne was 14 years old her parents divorced. The divorce was traumatic for the whole family but it also meant that Suzanne would never have a permanent home and, along with her older sister, she spent periods living with her mother, her step-father, in the care of the local authority, with family friends, leaving her a vulnerable teen looking for acceptance. Suzanne Capper came to know 26 year old mother of 3 Jean Powell one of the leaders of the group through a chance encounter with a boy the same age as her, Clifford Pook. He was sitting on his own by the side of a road, upset because he was having problems with his girlfriend, when Suzanne went over to see if he was okay. Clifford was Jean’s younger brother and he would ultimately go on to torture Suzanne.
