Sharon Wright and Peter McKenzie-Seaton met each other while they were living with other people. Seaton had been living with a woman named Natalie Watson. Sharon Wright moved in across the street with her partner and her little girl. It didn’t take long for the two to start up an affair, which led the couple to move out together when their respective partners found out.
Sharon Wright had a four-year old girl named Leticia Aalayah Wright, whose life was short and whose death was painful.
Neighbors and family suspected something might be wrong with the couple and how they treated the little girl. Child services made an unannounced call to Sharon and Peter’s house on October 13th, where they found Leticia lying down on the bottom portion of a bunk bed with a mattress but no bedding. She was in her full-length pajamas and had no apparent problems.
The child services folks told Sharon Wright that she had to enroll Leticia in school and get the child registered with a doctor.
Leticia was enrolled in a local school for a week, which I’m sure was the best week of her life. After the week was up, she never went again. When the school called and asked why the little girl hadn’t been to school, Sharon Wright told them Leticia was sick.
Was she ever.
Leticia wasn’t allowed to play outside with other children. She had never seen a doctor. She had no toys.
All she was allowed to do was stand at her bedroom window in her pajamas, smiling and waving at neighbors.
All day long.
Sharon Wright called emergency services on November 18th of 2006 because Leticia had stopped breathing.
Paramedics and police came across the little girl as she lay naked and not breathing, on the floor.
After 40 minutes of repeated attempts to revive Leticia, she was pronounced dead.
Autopsy results showed that Leticia had bruising all over her face. She had been punched in the eye so hard it had blackened and closed. The back of Leticia’s head was soft and swollen and, in the examiners words, felt like “a boggy mass.”
She had bite marks on both arms that matched dental records for Peter Seaton.
Leticia had clumps of her hair ripped out, which was found in a trashcan outside.
Where her hair used to be was now infected sores, oozing with fluid.
Leticia’s blood was found on a pair of furry handcuffs at the house as well as on the walls and carpets of the home she had shared with her mother and Peter Seaton.
According to medical examiners, she was punched and kicked hard enough to send her flying into either a wall or the floor.
The examiners also reported swelling to her bowels and pancreas as well as internal bleeding.
To put these injuries into perspective, they are exactly the type of injuries typically seen as a result of extreme trauma to a body caused by, say, a traffic accident.
Or by falling from a ten-story building.
An expert who deals with burns claims that four-year-old Leticia had been branded by a lighter and lit cigarettes. The heat sources had been applied to her bare skin for up to ten seconds at a time.
The deliberate and brutal injuries that finally killed Leticia were judged by experts to be sustained over a period of two to three days.
Sharon Wright was arrested in the hospital after authorites looked at Leticia Wright’s body.
Peter McKenzie-Seaton was arrested in a nearby town where he had been hidden from police by friends.
After their arrest, neither Sharon Wright nor Peter Seaton could explain how Leticia had gotten all the wounds that covered her body.
While specific injuries to Leticia couldn’t be proven to be done by one or the other, they are being tried as co-conspirators.
**UPDATE**
The jury is out in the deliberation phase of Peter Seaton’s trial. Go, read and vote.

you are like most sisters, you want to defend your family till death. I hope you are close by the lethal injection table in prison, you brother MURDERED your niece… get over your ill-educated pride and understand that even if all the memories you had of your brother are good, he murdered a little helpless child… if you are going to defend this obviously guilty murderer, it might as well have been your bite marks on the innocent little girl… you should be ashamed
[Reply]
Well good for you, maybe he can teach you how to spell and use punctuation as he rots in prison waiting for the gas chamber. It’s a pity he only gets that type of death and not something totally inhumane and cruel.
[Reply]
well i think that you should shut your mouth as you have only read what has been written by someone who has not got all the correct information, and is just making it sound alittle more juicy!!!.
Not all the facts have been reveled and you are just presuming that peter has done it without all the relevent information and facts as the court case has only been on for 2 days and not all the witnesses have even been called up yet. it is low lifes like you that get kicks out of making other peoples lives hell through difficult times.
Do you not think that all the families are going through a difficult time at present and want to get to the bottom of this case and find out the truth as well without people like you making the situation worse. What would you do if it was your family that was going through this difficult time?
As for the young ladies punctuation and spelling have you not thought that she may be dyslexic.
You proberley just presume that peter has done it because he is male and it wasn’t his child and a mother would not be capable of doing that to her own child, well how do you know for sure what sort state of mind she was in, and what she would or wouldn’t be capable of. You don’t know that peter may have loved that little girl more than her mother herself. So until you know all the facts i suggest that you stop bad mouthing peter until the case is over. Have you ever heard of inocent until proven guilty!!!!!!!!
[Reply]
Whoever wrote the initial article needs to get the facts right, as the majority of it is a parcel of lies.
For instances Sharon and Peter did not go to school together
or niether of them were married.
They met approx in the summer of 2006. As for respective partners Sharons partner was in prison at the time that Peter and Sharon got together.
How do you know that Laticia had no toys what so ever? were you a fly on their living room wall?
I would also like to know who has said that she was punched so hard in the face that her eye was blackend and closed. You are obviously reading a bit more than what has been said in the court rooms.
i would also like to know where you have got the information from with regards to her been beaten that hard that it sent her flying in to a wall or the floor.
As for Peters arrest he was not arrested at any near by town at all.
Yes this case is hurtful and sickening at what has happened to Laticia Wright, but as you can all see that you are not been told the proper facts of the case. The person that has written the article on this case obviously only knows half a story and thought they would make the rest up, well sort sort of report does that give.
I guarantee you the person that wrote this does not know anything about the case apart from what they have read in the newspapers and we all know what the papers are like.
So in furture when you feel that you would like to bad mouth people please get all your facts right before publishing a parcel of lies.

I have seen enough trials to know that only a fraction of the truth comes out in court. So much is considered prejudicial to the defendant and therefore not allowed even tho it proves the prosecutor’s case. Often the truth IS WHAT WE READ IN THE PAPERS!
[Reply]
From The HartlePool Mail:
Prosecutor Nicholas Campbell QC said scientific examinations found she had bruising to her face, her left eye was blackened and closed, the back of her head was soft, swollen and felt like a ‘boggy mass’.
Fluid was leaking from those areas and her scalp was covered in oozing, infected sores.
A post-mortem examination found further evidence of long-term abuse.
“There was multiple bruising of different ages on all parts of Leticia’s body and some were fresh, inflicted within hours of death, some could have been two weeks old and some fresh bruising lay over old,” said Mr Campbell.
“The child could have been punched and kicked and there was evidence to suggest coming into forceful contact with a wall or floor.”
An internal examination showed swelling and bleeding to her bowel and pancreas.
[Reply]
The marriage has been checked, they were not married. The article has been changed, thank you for pointing it out!
There was an affair however.
From The Huttersfield Daily Examiner:
The jury was told that the two defendants had met in Hartlepool, where they began an affair.
When Seaton’s then girlfriend found out they had been forced to leave the area. They had moved to Kettering, Northamptonshire, for a short time before setting up home in Huddersfield.
And Mr Seaton was arrested in Northallerton, which is not the town he lived in. He was being hidden from the police by friends. All verified.

In regards to the black eye - from the Sun:
Medics said her head was a “boggy mass†covered in sores and her left eye was black and closed. Her hair had been ripped out in clumps.

enough said… torture on live tv…
[Reply]
you have got all of your information from the local newspapers, you dont know anything about Peter what so ever. You are just reading what has been printed in the media. I have been at the court and most of what the papers state they have twisted as that was not said in the court rooms. Unless they are listening to more than myself and the others around me!!
As for an affair peter did live with his girlfriend as he got with sharon, but you don’t hound other people about having affairs and the affair didn’t last long as peter then told his girlfriend at the time that he no longer wanted to be with her and that he was with sharon!!!!
Everybody knows what the media is like for adding a little bit extra in just to make it abit more juicy and so people would buy the paper, that is there job!!! But people like you are that gulable that you believe everything that you read!!!
As for peter been arrested in Northallerton i know that but how is that a near by town to Huddersfield, i can assure you it is about one and half hours drive, that is not near by to me!!!!
For those who know Peter well and have grown up with him at school would know that he would never harm a child with intention. I know that your going to reply to me bad mouthing him but you do not know the facts and situation or even him, all you have got is what the Media is stating.
We all have our opinions about what has happened but you dont no niether Peter or Sharon, and all the families must been going through torture right now trying to find out what has happened to Laticia without people making their lives worse for them. You must respect that at least because its not the families that have done anything wrong and need to get through this difficult time without people making the situation sound a little bit worse!!!!
I know that Peter hasn’t Killed that little girl, but i know Peter and have done all of my life and i will stand by him every step of the way!! Like you would with your close family and friends so don’t go judging me just because i am standing by him you would do the same if you were in this situation and you all know that you would.
Yes i agree that justice should be done for the death of the beautiful little Laticia, and do not agree with any child abuse and especially it resulting in death, this case is heart breaking and dreadful but as i say you do not know all the facts. There is information that nobody actually knows at present, that is going to be reveled in court so until you start judging please collect all the information bafore you start sending Peter to hell!!! and don’t listen to everything that the PAPERS say!!!!!!
I’m ready for all the abuse and grief that you are going to give me for saying that i am standing by him, but before you start with the mouth then please put yourself in our situation first.

weaping mom reply on March 29, 2008:
First - trying to put myself in your place…..No I would still consider my brother equally guilty. He was in the home, the abuse was continuing over a period of days, weeks, possibly months. His bite marks on both of the child’s arms. In teaching a child to not bite, perhaps at one time 25+ years ago a parent would lightly bite the child - but not to leave marks that stayed for days! That hurts! That is abuse. At best, he was in the home permitting the continuing abuse to the point of death and is therefore as guilty as the murderer (if indeed it was the mother who inflicted the death blow). He should have blown the whistle on her before the abuse escalated to murder. Sorry - equally guilty. Guess you are glad I am not on his jury.
If it bothers you to read our rants, don’t read this site. It is the only way sane folks can cope with the epidemic of parents killing kids, kids killing parents, kids killing kids = just got to let it out! (By the way, all we can do is WISH to send them to Hell. Only our God can do that as he knows the true heart of man/woman.

if my child had just died i would be all over the shop and would tell what happened and who was there.SHARON WAS ALSO OUT ON BAIL BUT SHE DID ONE three weeks she was missing for peter didnt run why did she????
[Reply]
I can appreciate the compulsion to come to the defense of a family member who is accused of a crime. I can also appreciate that many people in this situation would go into denial and would be unable to believe that their family member could be capable of such acts.
However,
as much as you may love that family member try being a human being instead for a minute and instead of thinking only of them, think about the victim.
I’m sorry, but this guy will suffer for eternity. Hopefully, his remaining years in a corrections facility will be extremely unpleasant as well. Anyone who would harm a child doesn’t deserve the consideration of anyone, including family. If this is how you really feel about the tragedy of this poor child, I hope your remaining years are unpleasant as well, as you deserve to be ostracized from the community for being an unfeeling monster, albeit to a lesser degree than your scumbag brother.
[Reply]
Reply for Angey citizen: We do think about the Victim every single day and the torture she must have gone through, but what we are saying is that until we know the truth and facts about what happened to laticia in the last few weeks of her life which will be reveled by the court then to stop presuming that Peter has done it. We are not a heartless family and do think about Laticia and are disgusted at what has happened to her, but we do believe the peter hasn’t killed that little girl. Which is our opinion which everyone is entitled to but we are certainly not heartless!!!
You are correct peter will suffer for the rest of his life, do you not think that he feels awful, hurt and is grieving terribley for the loss of Laticia.
If the court do revel that Peter is the one that Killed Laticia then yes he does deserve to suffer in every way possible, but what we are saying is we no him better than everyone else and do truely believe that he has not killed Laticia. We do want to see justice been done. But until it is reveled who has killed that little angel then stop presuming that peter is the one that has killed that little girl.
so what you are trying to say is that if it was one of your family members that had been accused of such a horrific crime, and you felt they hadn’t done it you would still not support them and disown them because of what other people may think, as you believe by doing that then you wouldn’t be thinking of the victim. well i am sorry i do not agree. We are going to carry on and support Peter every step of the way right until the end and you may think that we aren’t nice human beings for doing that but i believe we are it isn’t as if we do not want justice to be done, as we do. But we know peter and we are not going into denial in any way what so ever. and as for him been a scumbag then that is your opinion but as i have said he is not a scumbag and you do not know him, so you are just presuming that he is the one that has killed her.
[Reply]
Soo.. who do you think tortured her for days on end in their house then?
I know, THE BUTLER DID IT! It’s the only thing that makes sense. No, wait, belay that. It was ALIENS! Yea, aliens and it’s probable that Elvis was with them during this abduction. It could be.
Or, it’s possible that someone closer to home, or at home did it. Maybe it was a bizarre form of suicide. I’ve seen a few of those. I saw an officer that went through most of a large package of Bic pens, breaking them from the force of driving them into his temple, before he finally did the job.
So yea, I guess it’s possible. Nothing like trying to squeeze someone through the needles eye of doubt here. Hell, the girl lived alone, probably was drinking heavily and then there was the coke. Had a $1200 a week habit and it just got the better of her. She burned herself with smokes, beat herself senseless, caved her head in, commanded her innards to be damaged, cuffed herself off and on and then simply died from all that undoubtedly self inflicted abuse.
Suicide, Butler, Aleins or the live ins…
They deserve suffrage.

I do believe innocent until proven guilty. BUT, I also have god given common sense and the right to my opinion as well as others. That’s all it is an opinion. We are not jurors or the judge so it doesn’t matter what our beliefs or opinions are. So, why do these so called defenders get so worked up? Maybe its because the truth hurts. I’m sure I wouldnt want to know anyone in my family did these things to a defenseless child. Once again, my common sense and opinion would kick in when I was told or heard about the bite marks being of the man Peter’s. A man best friends with a girlfriends child? How strange when the child wasn’t even allowed to attend school. This is by far a classic case of abuse. Whether that man inflicted ALL or some of the abuse is irrelevant. If you know of a child being abused or mistreated and do nothing it is the same as doing it yourself. It is against the law in this country to harm another human being, to take part in harming or to just do nothing and let it go on. I don’t claim to know everything and I dont think the writers of this article do either. I think they are stating facts along with their opinion. Which is another god given right in this country. There’s a saying that states “if you don’t like what’s being written, don’t read it.” I hope they both get the maximum punishment by law. And god will judge them accordingly when their time comes.

I knew peter from hereford street when he was with his previous partner and he does not seem the type to hurt a child. I have a little boy and he never did anything to him. If he has done this crime something must of been wrong as i personally dont think he is capable or would kill a child.

he ran because he was scared, sharon told him to run and he handed himself in, he has been on bail since may and did not run, sharon got bail and was on the run for 3 weeks! he has kept to the same story all through the trial, sharon continually changes hers! He has his own child and lived with other children, none of them have ever been harmed! I understand people will judge people on what they read and i can see why that is done! however anybody who knows peter and has ever met him will understand the serious mis-justice being done here! i know pete very well and would trust him with my life, he is not a violent person and certainly does not have it in his character to sit and torture a child.
[Reply]
Arguing is not going to bring Letcia back. The prosecution will decide what’s gone on and they’ll both get dealt with accordingly. Whatever they get will not be enough but that’s just this country’s petty criminal justice service. They deserve to rot together in the same cell. Sterilised of course!!
[Reply]
just out of interest then what is peter claiming? did he not see any of the previous injuries that were 2 weeks old, did he not cause the bite marks/ cig burns/ branding burns/ did he not notice that leticia had clumps of hair missing/ that their her bedroom window was covered so she could not look out?
k lets just pretend that he caused none of the injuries (although the court have clearly stated that he caused the bite marks!)- was he unable to see any of the abuse that was going on and report it? or stop it? SHE WAS FOUR YEARS OLD!!!! he was an adult - isn it our duty to protect children??
[Reply]
i think you’re right. if peter was so innocent why is he claiming that he didn’t see the mother abuse leticia either.or are we meant to believe that neither of them did it? drug fuelled wastes of spaces is all i can say they both are and it’s us tax payers that are paying for their drugs/housing and now for them to live in jail. they’ll get tortured in there of course. nobody likes a child killer
[Reply]
really though- i would like peter’s family to answer that! come on family and friends if if loved kids so much! why didnt he stop it!!? tell me more for this innocent man! why did he hide from all professionals? because sharon told him to? aw poor peter eh?!
[Reply]
I think anon is asking some pretty interesting questions. Whether or not we will ever get honest, verifiable answers is another thing entirely.
[Reply]
thanks! i do think that these are questions that need answering from Peter’s family. its ok saying ’sharon told him to’ and he didnt cause any of this but he was their and he is a grown man who can make his own decisions! unlike leticia who had little understanding of wrong or right! i am by no means suggesting that sharon is innocent in all this but if they (peter’s family and friends) are going to fight his corner then lets get to the bottom of it! if he really is that innocent then lets here why!!
[Reply]
leitica was not peters daughter…. he lived with her mother sharon! he did not have bathe her, dress her or look after her, therefore did not see the bruises on her! i have spoken to him about this many a time and he admits that he seen bruises on her, what child does not have bruises ?but not ones which caused him concern!!!
Evidence has been shown in court from numerous witnesses that sharon was violent with leitica before she got with peter(she was only with him for 3 months and witnesses report abuse from the age of leticia been about 2), throwing her on the sofa one witness recalls, grabbing her and pulling her and hittin her in the garden neighbours have stated and scaring her with a monkey toy! all am saying that the peter that i know is not capable of killing or torturing a child! whether peter knew/suspect abuse was going on or not, that is something that only he will know and he has got to live with for the rest of his life, but i am saying and will continue to say that peter is not a murderer, he would not sit and torture a child or knowingly allow that to happen-that is my opinion anyway-i understand that people will disagree, everyone is entitled to there own opinions!i think what has happened to that poor girl is terrible, and i hope that justice will be done so that leticia can rest in peace but anybody who knows peter i’m sure will agree with me when i say that he would not murder and torture a child!
[Reply]
I think that you need to come back into the real world love. she had injuries ALL OVER HER BODY! Bruising ontop of bruising! Bite marks that belonged to Peter!!! A black eye! is it normal for a child to have a black eye? Basically he would not have had to bathe her to see these marks!!!This child died because she was beaten to death! She was also toutured! We are not talking about a couple of child play injuries!Eeither they were in it together or one of them stood by while the other allowed this to happen!
You say that he would never tourture a child but his teeth marks were on her arms!!!! What would you call that? Friendly play? Do you know how hard you have to bite someone to leave an imprint of your teeth on their skin!? (and just before you say it its c*** that he was biting her back as a form of punishment for her biting him! On the inside of her arm!!? Whatever!)
You say that he never toutured her but the evidence is all there that she was toutured- the materess against the bedroom window, the bite marks on leticia’s body… blood on the walls and carpet! Either he did this or he stood by!!
[Reply]
FOR THE IDIOT WHO POSTED COMMENT 33-mattress against the bedroom window?who told u that? if i were u i’d perhaps get ur facts right before u go posting comments on subjects that u really have no idea about!! all u read is what is in the paper and that is a very selected story!!! do u know what is happening in court at the moment? and do u know what has been happening all week? i doubt it!
So why dont u go and stick ur nose in somebody else’s business and discuss something else that you have no idea about!! Peter’s family have been through enough without people interfering and posting comments which aren’t true!
[Reply]
you are so kind! the bottom line is that the window was covered, she had bite marks that matched your lovely friends and there was blood and body fluids on the wall. are you going to carry on defending him. i can appreciate it is hard for Peter’s family, and i really do feel for them… but for him!
do you have anything else lovely to say about mr peter robert mekenzie seaton or are you just going to kick off and avoid the questions you make out you’re willing to answer?!
[Reply]
The window wasnt covered at all though was it? Leticia was seen looking out of the window. At the end of the day only 2 people really know what happened in that house. I appreciate people feel discust about what happended to Leticia, like myself, I am merely pointing out that the Peter that i know is not like that and i will continue to support him whatever happens. If this did happen then something must have been seriously wrong. And i am sure this is an opinion shared by anybody that knows him.

Anonymouse you say you are peters sister or someone close to him. Thats fine I believe you should.However once he is guilty as well as sharon wont you feel like a tool.

peters lover?! friend? sister? i belive that the information that you have is incorrent - are you really attending court or are you blagging? maybe you should stop trying to get away from answering the blooming questions that you are being asked, or just be quiet! you clearly are a tool because you know very little about the case and all you keep saying is how wonderful peter is! wonderful peter who tourtured/ murdered or stood by and watched! god he’s a gem!!!!! lovely guy! cant wait for him to get bitch slapped in prison!

ANON-what questions am i ignoring?!
And i think i know more about the case that you do! Not blagging anything either, have no reason to lie!!

considering you do know about the goings on in court does that mean that you really are totally deluded? i will repeat what i wrote about 4 days ago -(and you claim you are not ignoring the questions?)
27 “just out of interest then what is peter claiming? did he not see any of the previous injuries that were 2 weeks old, did he not cause the bite marks/ cig burns/ branding burns/ did he not notice that leticia had clumps of hair missing/ that their her bedroom window was covered so she could not look out?

[Reply]
Whoever the people are that are posting in defence of Peter are deluded - Just ask anyone who knows the Seaton/Norfolk family, they have a reputation around town for bullying/stealing and especially the buying ,selling and handling of stolen goods.
Peter in the past has always had a reputation for being violent - Kirsty must have forgotten the times he was violent towards her, her sister and her mother when she wrote “but i know and love my brother he is a good person and loves children and i trust him 100% with both my kids and would let him take care of them anytime”.Perhaps Peter would not have ended up like this if his mother had not bought and supplied him with drugs when he was a young teenager.
If Peter is totaly innocent then why did he run? and why did it take an extensive police search to catch and arrest him - HE DID NOT HAND HIMSELF IN - why would his family and(so called) friends hide an innocent man from the police and lie about his whereabouts
At least by being cowards and not owning up to their guilt both Sharon and Peter will hopefully get longer prison sentences
The sad thing is they will never suffer like Leticia did.
[Reply]
you can all say what u want…. he has a big cock! lol and is good in bed!
u lot all need to get a grip and mind ur own business! why dont u concentrate on ur own lives instead of interferring in other peoples business and commenting on stuff which has nothing to do with you and most of u know fuck all about!!!
[Reply]
Northallerton resident- there is a big difference between being violent and sitting and torturing a child! i dont think that peter would do that!
[Reply]
well i guess now he is up giving his evidence this is his time to shine ey? it would appear that his friends and family are wrong in many ways about him, he has tried to run on at least two occasions, he has changed his story on at least two occasions and he has previous for violence! i look forward to next week when they are both sent down! i agree with the Northalerton Resident they will never suffer like little leticia did! although saying that i dont think they will be popular in prison once word gets out what they have done!!
[Reply]
Well one of them killed her- or perhaps the police did it to fit them up - it has been proved that the bite marks were inflicted by Mr Seaton - in your world that must be a sign of affection
[Reply]
when has he changed his story? and yes he does have previous for violence, but torturing a child is different to violence!

yer it is more sick!(i think you must realise that he either stood by and allowed her to be tourtured or he did it!)
anyway, originally he had never seen sharon hit Leticia other than an appopriate tap when she misbehaved…..now he has seen it happen on a number of occasions (hitting around the head, dragging to the bedroom, being rough with her etc) but ‘didnt see it as his place to stop it’.
[Reply]
Peter hasnt said that, that was other witnesses!anyway cant be bothered arguing about this anymore, it is doing my head in!! will all be over next week, then hopefully leticia can be laid to rest!But i honestly believe that peter did not know the level of abuse occuring, the peter i know would not allow that!
[Reply]
thats right aviod the topic. you simply cant defend him because you dont have a good defence! i hope he gets severly beaten when he is in wakefield prison!!! which i am sure that he will.
[Reply]
im not defending him if he was in the wrong i would agree with his punishment i have been to court every day and have listened to all the evidence and he is not the only person on tril he has admitted to biteing her twice he agreed to have dentel impresions done her mother didnt ! i wonder why
[Reply]
Now I got to get at Anonymous and any one else defending this clown Peter. First and foremost if you are defending this sob than I guess you have no soul. I think that Peter did do it and I have also been following the case and this man needs help if he had prior outbursts of violence and Leticia should have been taken away from Sharon and Peter and put into the custody of a REAL family. As a father if Peter did this to my little one I would have no problem having a little convo with Peter and if it escalated from that than thats what it does. As any REAL father out there once he is in prison and the other inmates get at him Anonymous you wont see your precious lil brother again I guarantee that. Now for your sake I hope he is innocent and for his if he is found guilty than… I think you would know what happens.

the bastards gonna fry!!!

i agree with donna seaton he is not the only person on trial, i guess the fact that people defend him makes everyone angry. we all know that they both know what went on in that house and that they are covering for one another. it is clear that leticia was tortured and then beaten to death and likely that she was sexually abused also. how could any one do this never mind stand by and let it happen. fair do’s he has admitted he caused the bite marks but he has been forced into a corner dont you think? they are his bite marks, also he knows the system so is no fool in that they would have got his teeth impression from dental records anyway and he would have been seen as co-operative. i think its really sad that neither of them are saying what happened, it means that no one who was involved with this little girl/ who is related to her can have full closure! nasty evil scum is what they are!
[Reply]
and just out of interest why would a grown man bite a small child? never mind bite her to the point that it marks her skin?!
[Reply]
mandy id like to no have you been updaiting on this triyl because at the end of the day there was 2 popel involed not just peter so what about sharon is she not gonner fry?and id just like to ansaewer anons quiston from my point off view as i have too sissters one at 4 and one at 7 if the chilled bits you, you could bit the child back but you would not do it to the extend were it lives marks on the skin just gently and i bet there aere plenty off mothers out there that does it to try and tech there child a lesson not to bit popel!!!. and i apolercis for my spelling as i am dislexik
[Reply]
summer, i think that you have some fair points. what this little girl went through was completely unnecessary and cruel. my point re the bite marks is that you would not need to bite a child that hard to punish her. but then nor do you need to brand a 4 year old child, burn her with cigs, pull her hair out and beat her to death! i hope that they both get murder and go down for a long long time!!!!!!!!!
[Reply]
try this,,,bite your own arm for ten seconds or so,till it hurts
a bit,look youve left a mark,that mark will be gone in a few
minuets,to bite someone to leave a bite mark for days you
would have to bite down hard and for a sustained period of
time causing severe pain to the victim,now get a clump of
your own hair and pull it out,how much did that hurt,and i no
for a fact you would not be able to put a fag out on your own skin
or hold a lit lighter to your own skin,your brain would not allow
you to do this.why punch a little girl in the stomach ? was it to
damage her internally to hide the fact seaton had sexually
assaulted this little girl ?he shattered her internal organs that
this cant be proved but why hit her there ? BLOOD on the walls
floors,handcuffs,and seatons own clothes,but they deny any form of abuse,pair of cowards,what next ? they punched her in
the back of the head,she was covered in bruises even old bruises were covered in new bruises,the medics couldnt even count them all,this poor little girl seemed to be aprisoner in her
own bedroom how could they do this they both deny it now
sharon has blamed seaton and again he denies it,he has even
lied to and fooled his own family and friends and they are stupid enough to believe him and stick up for him. he tortured
and battered a little girl to death then ran and hid,can his family
and friends not grasp the concept of this and realise how horrific this whole saga is ? it doesnt get any worse than this
a child deserves love and affection,not bullying or abuse.
the law has now changed so even by denying murder the fact
that they stood by and didnt prevent it still means they are guilty FACT.they will both have a very long time to think about
what they did and will spend the rest of there lives having to watch there own backs,there nights will be long and sleepless
there dreams will turn to nightmares they will be haunted forever. peter seaton you are as evil as ian huntley,peter sutcliffe and all the other murderers only the lord jesus christ
can save you now,rest in peace little girl all our love……………………………………………………………………

on comment 54,
the fact that sharon did or did not give dental impressions is
irrelevent as the bite marks matched seaton,now get that into your thick head he is guilty.
[Reply]
on comment 61
i dont no who u think u are at the end of the day sharon was involed as well. as iv been to the cour and heard her frind give evedens aganest SHARON and what he siad i would not repeat as it was fuking orfall. and as 4 sharon blaming peter well she would as she wount admit enything cos shes nowt but a fuking ugley fuking cowerd.and u need 2 get ur facts wright on the sexual bit as it was not proved it was PETER they said that it was most likey caused when they did the postmortem so get your fuking story wright and dont belive what u read in the fuking papers cos belive me i no how much the papers can lie as iv been lied about in a lockel paper when i was young and got muged.and bye the way sharon didnt run and hide.i do agree that if he didnt do it then he should of done something about it and if u was in court u would of heard that the little one alwaysed whent to PETER when sharon was hiting her at the end of the day they always say not guiltey till proven but u realy realy need 2 get ur factas right.
on comement62 like i have said is that sharon is just as guilty as peter is.
and agine i do say sorry for my spelling

Hellow every body i am peters antie and i would like to air my views and apineans . For a start i think every one should stop listening to the papers and beliving them i know my nephew and he is not capable of murdering or tourchering a child or anything else that they say yes if he knew what was happening to that poor little girl he should have done something about it . As for sharon the evedence is grater against her than peter and if people where that bothed then they should have been in court like me and his family so we know exactly what is what . I have two girls myself one is four and one is seven god help anyone that ever touched my kids they wouldnt get to court . and as for people thinking that sharon wouldnt do it becouse she was her mother then they need to think again she didnt want her when she found out she was pregnant it was the little girls father that persuaided her to have her she was frightend she wouldent be able to cope we now know she couldent ecxuse my spelling as i am not the best but had to have my say and will continue to support my nephew no matter what . As i belive him and the facts, as for biting for punishment i have done that with all my kids as thousends will have as well .It dose stop them biting other kids or adults.
[Reply]
I would like to reply to that person or that thing that wrote comment 61 and 62 who made you judge and jury . and there was two of them that lived there not just one or have you forgotten that . As for making him like the rest would you please let me know what that makes her or did she not have anything to do with it . And another thing i didnt know you lived at the house as well as them becouse to here you ,you must know more about what went on in that house over those last two weeks than even the police do.
[Reply]
Peter would not harm a child, i am sure of that!! Anybody who knows peter will probably agree with me! If it was really Peter then why didnt Sharon leave him or throw him out? she could have easily called the police and got a restraining order put on him and he would not be able to contact her! If she was really scared then police would have given her protection and if she was telling the truth he would have been sent to jail!! i am not a mother but i know for a fact if i had a child and my boyfriend was abusing her then i wouldnt stay with him, no matter how much i loved them or was frightened over them! If she is telling the truth(i dont believe she is-her story has changed numerous times) why leave the child alone with Peter in the first place(when he allegedly caused the injuries which resulted in her death). There where bruises which where 2-3 weeks old so she cant claim she never knew about it!!
At the end of the day there have been several witnesses which claim that she beat the Leticia throughout her life, she was only living with Pete for 3 months! He has had relationships with women who have children and he has never abused them!
I think sharon should start telling the truth so that her daughter can rest in peace!
[Reply]
wow thats a lot of information for a sunday afternoon! think mr seaton’s family are probably involved with professionals themselves as they appear to have no understanding of the abuse that he caused her when he bit her arms!!
the seaton family/ friends - i would just like to make clear that from what i have read no one is saying that Sharon is innocent! if anything i think people are sickened that she allowed/caused the injuries to her daughter!!!! the point people are trying to make is that peter DID leave his teeth marks on her skin! and he DID have leticia’s blood on his clothes! so can you really protest that he knows nothing????
also for the lady that bites her kids as punishment - please stop it is simply out of order, and unnecessary! call at your local day care centre/ sure start for parenting advice! or get to the dentist and get your teeth taken out! i am sure you would agree… gum biting would hurt far less!
oh and one last thing - comments 61 and 62 are pretty spot on! couldnt have said it better myself! family and friends of the adorable mr seaton and ms wright can you really defend this behaviour by continuing to try and minimise that this child died because she was battered to death - not forgetting all of the other abuse that she suffered!
[Reply]
I dont need parenting classes thank you very much i know how to bring up my children and i will do what a think is the best way to punish them thank you i only bit them all once when they bit for the first time and gest what they never did it again. i am not the only one that does it so if you have nothing constructive to say to me then dont wast your breath .how do you know it hurts less,have you no teeth ?and bite with your gums.Its pratts like you that give us decent folks a bad name.
[Reply]
cud i just let u all no that be4 peter started seeing sharon the little 4 year old girl had to go 2 hospitel 4 times because the littels girls elbo come out off the jouint bet u all did not read that in the paper and allso there was another witners saying that she cud not wish 4 a beter dad 4 her littel boy and he was very good with her little lad from the littel boy been a baby wright up to him been 1 and the reson that they spilt was because peter started seeing sharon what a BIG MISTAK that was 4 him and it was also sharon that was after peter at the bigging so just think realy hard about that and it was proved in court that the littel girls elbo came out of jouint and that she has been gowing in and out of pinderhosptel hospital from been 9week old right up to been 2years old and that was be4 peter even meet sharon and peter also said that he sat down after bitting the little one and thought to him self that it was out of order and to hard
[Reply]
Hey auntie. Why are you biting your kids again?
Seriously, did you just admit to biting your kids?
[Reply]
yes i do think she should fry too.of course giving them the death penalty is to easy for them…they need to endure as much torture and more like that sweet little girl did…they should me beaton to the brink of death….then when they r revived…beatin some more.
[Reply]
decent people dont bite their kids…only cold hearted peices of shit like u do auntie.

[Reply]

[Reply]
To comment 70 Iam not biting them again what are you on about i said i had bit them once when they first bit.
[Reply]
I think everyone needs to stop this slagging match which going on-especially those making it personal for people who have problems spelling and are dyslexic! None of this is not going to bring Leticia back! It is a terribly sad situation for everyone involved but arguing like this isnt going to change a thing! All Donna and her family and friends are doing is defending someone that they (and i) believe is innocent! A lot of these comments are based what you have read in the papers-there is so much more evidence.
[Reply]
To comment no 72 iam not a piece of shit i love my kids and they hardly get punished they get sent to bed or there bedrooms in stead i bet if you have kids they dont get punished at all do they and if you dont have any then shut the fuck up when you know nothing about me or my kids I have a twenty three year old she works and has never been in bother .

For those of you who don’t know the definition of the word drongo- stupid or slow-witted person-simpleton
[Reply]
Anon - Yes I am sticking up for Peter! Like anyone else who is sticking up for him, I dont believe that he is lying. I wouldn’t stand by him if I thought for one minute that he had tortured Leticia. I judge people as I find them, instead of listening to gossip and speculation, which is perhaps something some of you should start doing instead of discussing situations that most of you have no idea about.
I will say this again, ALL THAT YOU KNOW IS WHAT IS IN THE PAPERS!!! There is so much more evidence which has not been in the papers, perhaps it will come out after the trial has finished, I don’t really know! In the mean time I will continue to stand by and defend Peter, like anyone else who knows him will.
[Reply]
I am neither here to condem or defend what happened to that little girl is horrific but its happened and cannot be changed to all of the families involved dont try to justify yourself its not worth the hassle i know you will be going through hell and are still human regardless of the situation people do only read stuff in the papers which is greatly dramatised and it is only when they are in a situation whereas their whole life is twisted and distorted by the media they will realise …….it is easy for people to comment when they are on the fence and live their pretty little lives with nothing better to do than add to the torment im not saying it is right what has happened but as far as the outer family goes they feel a duty to defend their own. I am sure justice will be done regardless.
[Reply]
i think that the majority of the people who write into this page have been effected one way or another by the death of leticia. sadly when something this tragic happens to a child it impacts on all who have ever known her or the family.
I simply can not believe what these people did/ allowed to happen to Leticia! It is sick beyond belief!
[Reply]
well said lella at the end of the day what will be will be and for that anon you need to stop windeing people up because thats all your on haer dowing and taking the mic out off people that cant spell because its not nice and you would not like it if they all started on you cos of your speeling
[Reply]
has anyone read the wakefield express???! now tell me they arent sick f*******’s and that they are not guilty!!!!!!!! for those of you who have not i will explain. it states that leticia’s head was rammed so hard into a wall that the wall was dinted, that she was hit with a hair brush and a coat hanger, that mr seaton’s t shirt was found in leticia’s bedroom and that she had NOT had a bath when paramedics got their because she was still covered in excrement!
and before you start i am not relying on the papers for my information, i read them and actually agree that this information is correct - it has not been twisited and turned like the family are constantly making out! you are not the only people in court!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Reply]
oh re the t shirt in leticia’s bedroom - it had leticias blood on it! yes i am talking about the man who NEVER saw any injuries and NEVER harmed her! what a load of crap!
[Reply]
i have been reading this but not yet commented! i think that the family and friends of seaton are full of absolute s**** and the mentality of a pig! (sorry pigs) i have never come across such a set of thick idiots in my life! and i am not talking about your spelling i am talking about your ignorance to child abuse! no wonder peter seaton has turned out like he has when all you seem to do is avoid questions about what has happened or defend him biting and standing by while a four year old child was tourtured and then murdered! rot in hell the lot of you you sad sad sad sad low lives!!!!!!!
i think that is what is so sickening is that you ahve been in court and you do know how bad the injuries and the abuse was and you still feel the need to spend your spare time defending that animal!
p.s. i have dyslexic friends - but put more effort than that love!
[Reply]
i will tell you now sally that informaitson is not corect as have been gowing to the court yes there are twistng it or have you got a short memoey or something you all are realy f***** me off now as you all are just blaming peter there was a women called SHARON who was there aswell so get that in ur thick heads or poor sharon she wount heart her little girl would she f***** YES as i toiled u all when i said it all in coment no 69.so read it and tell me she was not dowing enything to her chilld.
amelia u can go and get f*****as i cant help the way that i spell i do do my best you silly f***** women if you have nowt beter to say then dont speek and if you have frinds with dyslexic then you would no that spelling is a week point for meny dyslexic people so dont pull me down as it is my very week pouin you have realy anoyrd me about that its not on so dont mock me agine.and i think we should stop nit picking at every1 and everything and dont belive everything you read in papers!!!!
[Reply]
summer - i really think that you need to calm down and maybe try and answer the following questions if you’re so keen to defend peter then do so!
1 - why was leticia bitten by peter on the inside of her arms to the point where his teeth were imprinted on her skin?
2 - why did peter have leticia’s blood on his clothing?
3 - why did he hide from the ambulance and then run and hide at friends houses?
4 - why did he say to the police ‘it wasnt me ad never hit a lass?’
5 - why did he hide from professionals?
6 - how come he says he never saw ANY injuries on Leticia when he was giving her mouth to mouth when it was the first thing that the ambulance crew noticed on arrival? (her black eye, swollen forehead and other concerning marks?
7 - how come his blood stained top was in the bedroom that belonged to leticia where the window was blocked off and he did nothing - didnt move it/ stop the abuse?
I am not saying that Sharon had no involvment. I truly believe that they were in it together, they never thought it would come to this (them killing her) and that now they darent tell the truth because they’re in denial! but if you are insitant that peter is so innocent that answer the above questions on his behalf and put our minds all to rest!
[Reply]
summer i am getting at your dyslexia because i want to take it out on you because you just dont get the whole leticia thing!! this might be wrong but you have to understand that it is very frustrating you defending a man who has caused/ allowed such abuse to go on! so blah blah blah - ssssssssssssssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh now! same old same old!
and as for not believing things that are put in the papers, the papers are using quotes from court - they would not be able to write incorrect quotes! you make out like she fell over and died! she was BRUISED FROM HEAD TO TOE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and not only that but she had sever injuries to her stomach and public area as well as her head - her blood is all around that home! as well as on your mates clothes!!!!!!!!!!!!! she had also been tourtured, with a coat hanger, a brush, a lighter, cigarettes and bitten, as well as hit with a chair leg and punched kicked and thrown! I think either answer Sally’s questions if you’re going to defend him that is - or shut up!
next you’ll be saying that Victoris Climbe’s auntie was not the person responsible for her death?!
aw actually now i have thoguht about it i have a feeling the pixies at the bottom of the garden might of done it - or sharon did all of this on her own?!
