Well this has to be the worst time of it all,
from the 14th october 2006 after leaving the hospital not really knowing what was to happen ,
We as a family could only comfort each other and await to hear from the police in hope they found the person who had taken Ronnies life,
Thinking back that weekend is very much blank yet ,
it just seems like yesterday,
I still today (22.10.2007) can not come to terms with the fact my brother is no longer hear with us.
We finally got a call from the officer who was dealing with the case saying,
they had now the young man in their custody I guess it was pretty much a great relieve to no at last for our sake who this person was.
Between all This I received a call asking me if i could go and comfrim that it was Ronnie they had in the morge,
I, couldnt do this neigther my brothers or mum,
so, i aranged that my eldest daugther and son go on our behalf and so on.
The man charged for Ronnies death went to the locial court were he was remanded untill the trail date,
Which at this time had not been set, so the days and weeks that followed were by far as the sad news was to come.
After two weeks I received a call from police saying who i no now as Thomas,
had infact attended been back to court at the old bailey in london,
were the judge Granted bail withrules etc he lived out of the Area untill the actual pre- trail date which wasnt untill Feb.2007.
Again on this day he was granted bail with the same rules to apply,
The police wasnt happy as this now seem to be a slap in their faces and,
insult to injury where my family were concerned.
Before this shock back in 1st week of Nov 2006
we had the worst news of all which was they had to remove Ronnies Brain so this left us empty for we new there was not to be a burial for sometime.
This caused so much heartach that so my mum went so down hill i was so scared id lose her before we could lay Ronnie to rest.
The day did come but not untill ((((((((08.12.2006)))))))))).
Again we had a long wait untill June 18th 2007.
(((And this was one case with such detail left in the hands of))) ...............((((( A=JUDGE???)))))
RONNIE
THE=STORY=BEHIND=THE=TRUTH
The facts and truth became our worst nightmare on the day of 12th october 2006, and is there for the rest of our lifes.
My Brother Ronnie Aged (45) at the time and very much at the best peak of his life had his life taken away for what some say being in the wrong place at the wrong time, when infact this isnt the case,he felt safe to go as a normal day to visit his friends like many days months and years as he always did before.
I recall on the morning of the 12th october 2006 feeling somewhat diffirent in myself light headed and my thoughts were all over the place, At the time i put it down to worry of diffirent things going on in my life as well as loseing my father in march the same year to cancer and my grandson the year before.
The morning seem to get the better of me so i took my self back to bed in hope this feeling would clear before my children can home from school.
I rememberd wakeing up around 2.45 that afternoon and i phoned Ronnies number as he was due to pop round as he promise me the night before,
The phone rang and rang so I left a message telling him off (HaHa).
It was 3.55 when my daugther Daisy returned home and she said oh mum i just see UNCEL RONNIE sitting on the Bench,
:IS he ok then I said:
:yes mum: :he was sitting there talking to a woman:
:with who: I asked:
:oh dont no who she was:
I,pick my phone up this was about 4pm and I called his number again it rang and rang and rang,
I didnt understand why he didnt pick up.
That very second I got this strange feeling of panic.
My Friend was hear by this time 4.05 I called Ronnie again but this time the phone rang twice then it cut off,
I called it for the final time it was turned off.
I heard this big bang on the front door whos that I shouted,
(Then my nightmare began)It was the man next door (MAX) something terrible has happend to your Ronnie luv, I think you should make your way to the hosiptal
What do you mean? my mind was runnig so many things I couldnt get my words out,
my friend walked out behind him,
me running hear there and no where,
I heard her say well you got tell her,
Tell me what::::::: Then in slow motion as I recall::::
:I think Ronnies dead:
I dont really remember much its very faint I no I arrived at the hosiptal around 4.45/4.50/ as the hole of the main road A good 2 miles of it was blocked off.
I remember being stop by the police as I was fighting my way into the Recuss room police everywhere trying to hold me back and by this time I had no control over my thoughts, I remember banging open the door fighting to get in the room with police dragging my arm,
Then, to my horror broke down on the floor in a heap, For the bed in front Layed my ronnie so helpless, yet he looked so peacefull.
I new in my heart Ronnie was gone,so many things run throught my mind,
This Doctor came towards me helping me to my feet with my friend,I new the news was comming,
He ask me to come into A room as he wanted to tell me what had happend,
I was some what rude demanding him to tell me there,
I was in total shock,
He managed with the help of my friend to walk me to this room and shut the door behind us.
:Sit down: he said: I remember slumping into this chair shaking from head to toe,
I have some bad news......My head was everywere I couldnt Quite gasp what he was saying I could hear him but he seem a million miles away,
all I could think was how do I tell my mum what has happend to our Ronnie.
We have done a Brain scan as your brother was violently attacked and has had a very bad bang to the head,
which has caused a very large amount of bleeding to the brain, we have sent the results to Another hosiptal for speicalists to over look the results.
I couldnt understand how or why and all I could hear in my mind was the last words Ronnie said to me the night before on the phone,
(see ya tomorrow sis I love you).
Well it was a good hour or so,
(yet it seem like it was days waiting for the results)Before the Doctor came Back into the room,
By this time a good few of my family had heard what happend and were outside waiting to hear how Ronnie was,
Little did they relise the heartache had just begun.
The Doctor returned but this time with Another Doctor and Nurse before they could shut the Door I knew by the look on their faces As they stumbled with the words how to break the bad tragic news to me.
I remember jumping out of the chair before they could get another word in and say :My mum: What am I going to tell my mum,
I ran from the room outside :shouting back:
I have to Ring my mum,
As i walked outside there were so many faces yet in all my confusion I couldnt focus who was who,
I remember trying to put my mums number in the phone yet I couldnt remember her number,
My hole mind was a blank It finally rang and seem so long in Asnwering,
:Hello: :it was my Brother: I felt this big pain in my heart as I said :Graham: its me,
:Whats up luv you want mum:
:No: listen something terribles happend to Ronnie
:What: he knew by the tone of my voice it wasnt good.
:whats happened to Ronnie:
I could hear my mum in the back ground as her voice became clear and loud.
:HIS DEAD:I said
:OH MY GOD NO:
By this time my mum knew something was so terribley wrong before i said another word I heard her voice,
:Max: its mum
:OH MUM:
Before I said another word she said,
:I heard all the police cars:
:Please tell me :MY BOYS OK:
I told my mum please get to the Hosiptal Quickly.
I rang my Aunty her sister and she meet us at the Hosiptal,
We All returned to the Room were the Doctors came and gave us the tragic sad news,
He said the results are not Good the speicalist have told us theres no point moveing Ronnie.
:I am most sorry:
Later, they moved Ronnie to I.C.U were he remained on a Live support Machine
They done two more test called (BRAIN STEM)
That clearly stated he was Brain Dead and in a matter of hours his body would start to such down
They prononced Ronnie Brain Dead At 10.00.PM
And Ronnies last Heart beat was at 1.05am.
