I'd phoned the Mitchell house and his mother told me that Luke was paying his own, private tribute.

Mother and son agreed that we could film it.

In the first moments of meeting Mitchell I was struck by how confident he was.

How did the interview with Grace McLean come about ?

Was she the reason Jodi died?

It was claimed that Jodi found out about the two-timing and confronted Mitchell who reacted with violence towards her.

Gemma Chapman as opposed to Kimberly Thompson?

What happened to Jodi was so ironic because the Thursday before she died we were all talking about what records we would want played at our funeral.

What does Mitchell tell police about the above and does it tally with what Laura told police?

It must have been dreadful for Jodi's gran Alice Walker to have seen her that night.  The version above refers to her cradling Jodi but there is another which simply refers to her touching her forehead. It appeared the media couldn't even get that right.

Did the media get it right or did Luke Mitchell tell it wrong?

I shouted to the others but I couldn't tell them I'd found Jodi because I didn't want to upset her gran, but she said she wanted to come over the wall

The others held her back but she scrambled over the wall and said if her granddaugher was there she wanted to be with her

She sat down beside Jodi and cradled her in her arms


Did Grace McLean speak with the police regarding what Mitchel told her?

Totally

Interesting don’t you think though how Luke Mitchell apparently was still looking on at this point

Does JuJ or any of the family say Jodi was upset that night? According to her diary Jodi thought that she was in love with Luke so don’t you think that if she had found out that Luke had two-timed her she would have been devastated and would have shown it?

As far as I recall, Luke was asked to keep away from Jodi's funeral, which he did.  He wasn't asked to keep away from the cemetery, and, IMO, nobody has the right to prevent another from visiting the grave of a person who was close to them.

I read that the girl with Luke and Corinne at the graveside was a friend of Jodi. I don't know whether or not that is true.

Many boys of Luke's age  are guilty of cheating on their girlfriends (and girls on their boyfriends).  I don't find this very significant, just a sign of immaturity!

The interview with James Matthews, on the day of Jodi's funeral was, IMO, rather naive and insensitive, but I don't think it indicates that Luke killed Jodi, or that he necessarily did not respect her family.

But that immaturity label doesn't tie in with the police and media interviews where he was considered mature for his age. We can't have it both ways.
A malicious prosecution for a crime which never existed. An exposé of egregious malfeasance by public officials.
Indeed, the truth never changes with the passage of time.

He might be intelligent and a good speaker, also independent  in some ways, but taking a mature attitude towards girlfriends (eg one at a time, and considering their feelings) seems to be beyond most boys at that age , in my experience as a teacher in high schools !!

Displaying a "cocky" attitude while being questioned by the police points to immaturity too, IMO, although I do believe he was treated very unfairly.

Do you believe that the prosecution proved their case beyond a reasonable doubt?

Mitchell expressed disappointment in his Sky News interview that Jodi's family had not wished his presence at her funeral and he respected their wishes.
Why then did he and his mother 'own' Jodi's grave by posing at it for publicity shots as recorded by tabloid photographers.
I hardly think that public display showed respect to Jodi's mother when a private visit to the cemetery would have sufficed and might have been more appropriate had avoiding causing offence been a real consideration.

I have to say, I hadn't realised they had posed for pictures.

From the time I recall a series of posed images of which the image at the graveside was only one.  I found it exceedingly distasteful even then when there was no hint of what was to happen later.

At the time, I watched the Sky interview open mouthed I found it all so extraordinary.  When considering both instances of self publicising together it is my opinion that even if investigators had formerly had no interest in Luke Mitchell, the hairs on the back of their necks would have risen when both instances were viewed.

I think it was courting notoriety and I cannot imagine the effect they must have had on Jodi's nearest and dearest who obviously wished to have nothing to do with Mitchell, as was their right but he was showing them to the differ aided and abetted in it all by Corrine.
