As a fan of Dr Who, Ghostbusters and Robot fighting shows (Robot Wars, Battlebots and so on), he was a Youtuber I would watch now and again. It honestly goes to show that these people we watch, we have no clue what they are really like in real life. Only seeing what they present on screen, nothing more. As a loose fan this whole thing feels so shocking, and makes me feel for not only the victim but his friend who did a lot of content with him.

So he went to all this trouble then accidentally left his phone at the murder scene? It's worse then that. Apparently it wasn't at the scene of the crime, it was left at her parents to spy on them. The BBC say "The detective said Mr McCullagh, who works in the local media industry, then went on to interact with the McNally family in the weeks that followed. He said the accused left his phone in the home of Ms McNally's parents and recorded 40 minutes of audio. Det Ch Insp McGuinness said he believed this was Mr McCullagh attempting to determine if the family suspected him of involvement in the murder." www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-64494847

Yeah this is absolutely gutting to all three online communities because he was one of the most prominent YouTubers in those spheres. I should point out that we do need to be a little careful with what we say online regarding this, because the crime took place in Northern Ireland, and thus the UK, and as such it is subject to the UK's contempt of court laws, which are no joke. They do not want anything that can even be seen as swaying the jury, and that includes things being said online. Even in cases like this that has a mountain of evidence.

Be careful about what you say until the trial is over. Also, having watched the Robot Wars/Battlebots reviews pretty regularly (I was subbed to the channel until the news came out) as well as Antweight Anarchy, this came across as a bit of a shock. I hope that Anthony (the owner of the channel Antweight Anarchy was on) and Catherine (the presenter for said series) are doing alright.

Picturing him thinking "I'm a genius!" while recording it, without ever considering the glaring inconsistencies that would make it obvious what the real objective was.
