Jon Venables New Identity Revealed
 

Jon Venables was just 10 years old when he and friend Robert Thompson murdered toddler James Bulger.

Venables served seven years of a life sentence for the 1993 murder before he was freed in June 2001, aged 18. He was given a new name, (John Paul Williams) a job and a flat on his release to try to ensure his security and give him an “ordinary” life.

Had he gone on to lead such a life, that might have been the last the British public ever heard about Jon Venables. But at the age of 27, Venables finds himself back in the headlines and back behind bars having been jailed for two years after pleading guilty to charges of downloading and distributing indecent images of children.

A lifetime ban was placed on reporting anything about either his or Thompson’s whereabouts or their new identities after their release.

The ban relating to Venables was partially lifted on Friday at the Old Bailey after he was jailed for the offences under the 1978 Protection of Children Act. The judge revealed that Venables had been living in Cheshire at the time of the offences, and that the case was dealt with by Cheshire police and Cheshire probation servic e.

It was also revealed that Cheshire police had produced a “threat assessment” to try to establish what could happen to Venables were his new identity revealed. That assessment concluded that Venables would face the highest possible risk of being attacked if his name was either published in the media or known elsewhere in society.

Police had even trained him in counter-surveillance after he was told he would have to “live and hold a lie” for the rest of his life. Venables worked full-time in a job with anti-social hours, earning close to the minimum wage, the court heard.

Then in 2007, he started drinking heavily and taking drugs, including cocaine and the recently-banned substance mephedrone.

On 20 September 2008, he was held on suspicion of affray over a street fight with a man who claimed Ve nables had attacked his girlfriend. Both men were charged with a public order offence, but this was later dropped.

Venables was formally warned by the Probation Service for breaking a “good behaviour” clause in his licence. Three months later, police cautioned him for possessing cocaine, and a requirement was added to his licence ordering him to address his alcohol and drug problems, the court was told.

It was not until February that it emerged Venables had been recalled to prison for breaching the conditions of his release. The Ministry of Justice refused to reveal any details, but the then Justice Secretary Jack Straw did say the recall was prompted by “extremely serious allegations



Horrible horrible person.

edit

my neices ex works in that pizza hut D:

thats not him btw :|

Really? Its all over the internet now that it is him...

no i didnt mean that pic isnt him lol

i mean hes not my neices ex

Oh right I just realised I shoudlt have put that picture or the link...if anyone wants the link PM me and ill send it on.

why D:

cause it's still against the law to report on it...

oh D:

i thought the police had like officially released it or something :shocked:

Nope, I think its okay for the story to stay here but not the link or pictures.

Only in the UK, if the site host is over seas based its safe enough

Yeah I was just looking at an irish board and they are showing the pictures.

cant really tell much from that pic anyway -_-

there must be some clearer pics somewhere

i just searched for john paul williams on facebook /stacey

but there are loads of them

Theres more pictures on the original site but its down if you paste the link to facebook and scroll through the pictures before you make a post you can see 2 more but again not that clear.

Thats because UK court decisions arent binding in the Republic of Ireland.

If this site server host is situated outside of the UK, then UK courts have no jurisdiction over it. You yourself living outside the UK cant be touched however, if you were living in the UK you could technically be held in contempt of court for breaching the judges directive.

A prosecution against an individual in those cases would be unlikely though. Unless the site was the official site of a UK organisation like Daily Star website etc.

If you try google with the two names, and are offered a link to a uk fishing organisation to do with carp (add a y to that) there are copies of the photos taken off the facebook profile mentioned.

No doubt some idiot will go after him under the idea that they're some sort of police force

"paul john williams jon venables" google that and you get a faccebook group that has the photos and links.

Good. The police obviously arent doing anything, his prison sentance didnt help

Maybe a good kicking will sort his ****ed up head out :/

Wonder if this is definitely him, a while ago there was a guy who was apparently him and his details were sent round to loads of people, turned out he wasnt Jon Venables but he recived loads of death threats and stuff anyway.

In the doc I say he was apparently round Liverpool all the time. Think he could easily be seen out n about now

The pictures of him working in the pizza place were already published, when the pizza place won an award or something the Huffington post published them. How his picture could be circulated and nobody do anything is beyond me.

Which Pizza Hut does he work at?

He deserves whatever comes to him. He hasn't changed at all, whatever "bad" is in him was there from birth

And yeah hopefully it is the "right" person and not someone else.
