Is Luke Mitchell guilty - your views

[Nicholas]

Sorry but this I find too far-fetched. He was 14, not a married man with everything to lose. In my opinion.

"Too far fetched" because it doesn't fit your ideals!?

Welcome back Stephanie - and you think it is not too far-fetched because it fits yours...

I won't be arguing with you today - you have your opinion and I have mine.

He had another girlfriend who looked exactly like Jodi.  When the girl found out what had been going on she was mortified.

Next you will be saying he wasn't really a drug dealer as he was only a child.   

I would like to see the evidence he was a drug dealer - having some weed in your bedroom and sharing a joint with friends hardly makes someone a drug dealer. It was Jodi's relative who supplied the lot of them, I do not see much being said about that!

Whether posters like it or not there are numerous parallels in this case and the Simon Hall case, especially in relation to previous girlfriends and alternative viable suspects.

Hall's previous girlfriends gave witness statements regarding his behaviour but they were discredited for varying reasons.

One girlfriend for example, a nurse from Liverpool, ended up stabbing another boyfriend...

Based on my experiences, I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss Luke Mitchell's numerous girlfriends accounts of his character/behaviour etc.

It doesn't fit my idea no but we aren't debating your average 14 year old child are we. Luke Mitchell was already displaying signs of violence, lack of self control/regulation etc etc several years before he turned 14!

He had more than weed in his bedroom and admitted to more than "sharing a joint with a friend"!

Do you mean you "do not see much being said about that" in the media? What's your point? So what. Doesn't mean it wasn't something the police considered.

Did he? Care to provide a source to your claims?

Is he appealing his drug dealing conviction?

Are you claiming the police didn't consider this when investigating [Name removed]'s murder?

What point are you trying to make?

No I am not - what I am claiming is that people think it was ok for him to deal drugs to children, but something more sinister when it is Luke? That is my point!

Mitchell had a history of threatening girls with a knife but they say lightening doesn't strike the same place twice.

He claimed that he was home when the murder took place but his brother refused to corroborate his alibi after police pointed out that lying to police was a crime.  I believe Shane has never changed his story.

Mitchell knew that Jodi had left to meet him yet when she never turned up he made no effort to find her or contact her.  Mitchell was seeing another girl behind Jodi's back and Jodi had found out, did she confront Mitchell that afternoon and it all turned nasty?

Sorry but this I find too far-fetched. He was 14, not a married man with everything to lose. In my opinion.

It's not too far fetched to consider a 14 year old boy losing all control of his emotions and lashing out - with a knife.

Really? Asking questions again, which you clearly know the answer to!
