Faithlilly, discuss the facts of the case? - this thread was about reasonable doubt, that predictive sway away from this onto CM's far from honest podcast? - Of the stigma around tabloids and broadsheets? Which in turn brought about some very interesting points. It turned tail on you? That it is true - that the very people who were naive to take on board all that was written in the media, are the very same audience required by those spearheading this campaign, by ignoring all and everything of the Mitchells and Ms Lean, of those massive holes in the account they gave/give. Those missing hours. Everything simplified to the point of ridicule? It was a candle in the garden, it was half a mars bar, that the police picked on LM because he was a goth with an odd taste in music, that one policeman out of three MAY have noted "with the boyfriend" indeed, let's add the start of this 'left to meet "with the boyfriend" That sheer manipulation of all and everything. Two friends and one son, concocting all and everything together. - a much fairer assumption? - A book is written? What did you, yourself state about money to be had in writing about this high profile case?
And it is true is it not - that the majority of those who have jumped on board, are not interested in what is behind those claims? that these claims are nothing short of what the media did at the time. They are not interested in the truthful facts of this case - they have readily accepted every word, to the point they have already solved this murder. These people, in their admin duties, used for that very reason above are they not? for they are exactly what is needed in this campaign, that level of intellect that do not question - that word spoken in the book. It's all true. "There was four of them cotter was the lookout". One would like to say it's not their fault for being of such a gullible intellectual nature, that the fault lies at Ms Leans feet? But it is their fault - They chose to believe rubbish then around goths and so forth - they choose that very simple line of reasoning again in reverse. That there was nothing to convict LM. He was convicted on the basis of being a goth, odd taste in music, he was tried by the media - was he? Well if these people tried LM by media it is hardly surprising they are trying everyone else by Ms Leans book and documentary.
Oh, we have a knife, it is this size, we have blood on a jacket and shoes - the tests carried out showed no reportable results. Then we have that all of the DNA testing was done on the wrong basis of questions asked, of determining the wrong kind of results - this is the type of guff people believe - No reportable results are just that. It was not Jodi Jones' blood. Plain and simple. - These somewhat simple minds drawn to one factor only - of the knife and the blood, because their heads are tuned in first and foremost, to their interest in the macabre not evidence. Not everyone of course. Most have the common sense to sit back and think - Do we trust the experts, these forensic scientists, who are looking for evidence linked to the actual crime - or do we put trust in this woman, who by all accounts, touts out - that she knows better than everyone else. Those who head this campaign are the same - we are the experts, what you say is piffle, you don't know anything? This avenue has long since worn thin. There is much more known about this case than ever before. The days of Jigsawman are long gone.
What does stand, and has always stood firm - is there is nothing to show that LM could not have killed his girlfriend. There is that simple choice of disbelief in your run of the mill, 14yr old being capable. - There was nothing run of the mill in this killer. There is evidence in abundance that LM was not your average type of 14yr old. Those teaching days? How many of these pupils, could you have put in the same category of total void as LM? Whom would simply claim "I'm not that type of guy?" This was a 14yr old boy making this claim - not an adult? That shed not one tear for this girl. What he did do instead is possess and view this horrible depiction of a woman, murdered, mutilated and left naked in a woodland. That he bought a new knife identical to the one still missing. He bought this new parka, before he was asked about one by the police. They did not expect the FLO to be there waiting for the shopping and receipt. And this is only touching on all there was.
Not everything can be excused by some ridiculous fallacy of reasoning - LM showed nothing typical of a 14yr old, normal run of the mill boy before and most definitely not after this murder.
