Father Stabs Daughter, Claims it was a Game | Simon Vickers Case Update

A father claimed it was just a tragic accident—said he threw a knife instead of a spatula during a “play fight” with his daughter.

But 14-year-old Scarlett Vickers was dead from a stab wound straight to the heart.

Her father, Simon Vickers, was sentenced to life in prison with a 15-year minimum. Now the Court of Appeal has ruled on whether that sentence was too lenient.

This is your bonus update on the case of Simon and Scarlett Vickers.

(Side note: I listened to the initial case and heard that I accidentally once called Scarlett - Simone. Apologies for that.)
