A shocking report from the team at the BBC has revealed a world of UK disaster trolls who claim terror attacks like the Manchester Arena bombing were staged and that survivors of the attack are being hounded
Richard Hall, a former web designer released a film and book about the Manchester bombing, which killed 22 people and injured hundreds, which suggested that Salman Abedi, an Islamic State fanatic, was not behind the attack instead claiming that the incident may have been a “carefully stage-managed exercise involving scores of enlisted participants”.
One theorist reported the programme had visited victims’ homes, setting up cameras in an attempt to prove they had lied about their injuries.
One survivor of the terrorist attack Martin Hibbert was only five metres from the explosion and was paralysed from the waist down after being struck by 22 pieces of shrapnel.
His daughter Eve now 20, was in hospital for ten months and lost the use of her arm and legs and remains in a wheelchair
He had been left distressed after learning from the police that Hall had spied on his daughter’s home to determine if her injuries were genuine.
This morning’s Times reports that Hibbert nd other victims planning to sue Hall for claiming that they faked their injuries as part of a wider hoax.
The action follows the news that US conspiracist Alex Jones has just been ordered to pay nearly $1bn to families of the Sandy Hook school shooting after claiming the attack was a hoax.
Martin Hibbert’s lawyer, Neil Hudgell, who is preparing a libel case against Mr Hall, told the BBC: “Martin’s got to the point of enough is enough. This needs tackling and to be silenced in legitimate ways.”
