Why doesn't Shane Mitchell speak out if his brother is innocent?

[Rorschach]

His actions or at least his inactions would certainly appear to suggest so.

He's told people I know and trust that his brother's guilty. I can get his phone number if anyone here wants to ask him for themselves.

Shane believes in his brother's guilt.

Do you have a source?

The loudest one in the room is the weakest one in the room.

Or knowledge is power.

I think that’s kinda why he keeps in the background, so random strangers don’t call him.

Sure we all know this is about Sandra Lean and not Luke Mitchell.  After the failed campaigns for Simon Hall, Adrian Prout and Gordon Parks nobody who knows anything about miscarriages of justice cases will ever take her seriously again. The woman has given MOJ advocacy a bad name imo. She should stick to writing bad fairy stories imo.

Well---------sometimes, I read these threads, and I get the impression it's more about Sandra Lean than Luke Mitchell  !!

I'm sure he'd be absolutely delighted!

My opinion is that actions speak louder than words and Shane's absolute inertia as far as the ongoing campaigns mounted on Luke's behalf are concerned is deafening.
I don't think he harbours one iota of doubt whether reasonable or not regarding his brother's guilt - if he had, I think he would have said so.

I would like it.

That's the way I look at it. Even turning up at some of the public events would have been a start.  It's not just Shane though, the same applies to Luke's father.

The two closest male relatives are not giving him the benefit of the doubt - but while Luke's father was at a distance - Shane was right in the centre of the action.

He knew what went on in the house on the night Jodie was slaughtered having been privy to discussion about the agreed narrative to be spun for the police.  Eventually he didn't go along with it then and has been sensible enough to stick with the facts as he knew them to be.

Has Sandra/Corinne/Luke thought about what's going to happen with regards to an alibi in the unlikely event of a retrial? It will collapse at the same hurdle.

I think his best bet would be to concentrate on the future and get his act together in preparation for parole board hearings if or when he becomes entitled to do so.

I think neither his mother nor Sandra Lean are best equipped to assist him towards that goal.

If it wasn’t for your second sentence, I would have believed you. Has he honestly told people you know and trust that his brother is guilty?
