What Happened To Robert Thompson? Where Is Jon Venables Now In 2022? James Bulger Story

September 2024 · 2 minute read

James Bulger was kidnapped and killed by Robert Thompson and his partner Jon Venables.

After taking the toddler away from a shopping center in Bootle, Merseyside, two 10-year-old boys kidnapped and killed him in 1993.

The paint was sprayed in his eyes, bricks were flung at him, he was kicked, and batteries were inserted in his mouth. The boys slammed a 10kg iron bar on his skull, giving ten head injuries.

When James was killed, he was a couple of months away from turning three years old. His dismembered body was found 2.5 miles nearby on a rail track two days later.

Killers Robert Thompson and Jon Venables were brought to a juvenile detention center, where they resided until 2001, once they were liberated at the age of 18.

In a recent documentary, Lost Boy: The Killing of James Bulger, which originally aired on Channel 5, James’ brother reveals the sorrow their families still feel since losing him.

He further explained, ” He’s always been a member of the family.” “We have an extra chair around Christmas Eve.”
