The description of the book on Amazon.

Following the brutal murder of 14 year old schoolgirl, Jodi Jones, in 2003, Scott Forbes knew within days that there was something wrong with the police investigation into her 14 year-old boyfriend, Luke Mitchell. He knew, because a man who should have been a person of interest to the investigation was being completely ignored by the police. A man Scott Forbes knew very well.

Over the next 19 years, Scott pursued every avenue, spending thousands of hours studying case papers, speaking to local people, investigating leads ... becoming a lawyer along the way. Here, he highlights areas the police did not even consider, because of their single-minded determination to make a murderer out of a schoolboy. Local people, local sub cultures, local practices, hidden from the authorities and most of the general population, that provided the exact circumstances in which a murder like this could occur.

The author confronts some ugly truths and disturbing realities which were commonplace, if well concealed, in the local area. But were they well concealed from the investigating authorities, or did they wilfully turn a blind eye? As you read, ask yourself, is it possible that the police really knew nothing of these goings on, right in the heart of one of the most brutal murder scenes in Scottish history?

Could this be the answer to what really happened to Jodi Jones? And could it prove, after almost two decades, that Luke Mitchell had no involvement in his girlfriend's murder?

19 years on the case? > Lie.

If they cannot even tell the truth on the book description, then what is the point in opening the first page?

I don't know Scott Forbes and nor do I have anything against him, but, he just doesn't, from what I've seen and heard from him thus far, seem like a credible source on this case. There seems to be a distinct unprofessionalism that emanates from him, in my opinion.

IPSO are incompetent - but has anyone complained to them or the various newspapers who are promoting the lies and innocence fraud?

Agree Nicholas, 2023 may just see a lot more of this exposed ;-) As Faith rightly says, 'we will just have to wait and see'

Yes they do expose the nonsense that she tries hard to back what comes forth from 'auld Nick'

Here we are again with yet another legal team from those who cry wolf, how many now since 2018 alone? Like the dam fire in the garden, it was then it wasn't then it was then it wasn't -------

What slithering of truth do we have this time? That there is some pro-bono work with someone who can actually practice law, not someone who has actually taken the case on as such. The man with the mouth the size of the Mersey Tunnel, dam it would seem I was right enough, some legal action by Mitchell around the disposal of personal items, good luck with proving innocence from that?

I gave an example before around his knife pouch which was a production at trial, evidence. Once it had spent its time as such in a 'solved series crime' it reverts back, like everything else to a personal belonging. Another slithering of truth of disposing of evidence illegally?

But up the anti around their false narrative and all the brain dead thugs they are evoking/enticing to cause harm to human life, as JH rightly says, should any harm come to her or ones grandchildren she will hold Forbes and Lean personally responsible for this. Lean and her usual predictive ' I have not produced a hate campaign, lets talk JH and I will show you the error of your ways!'

Dangerous people who support dangerous people such as Toal, such a nice chap stabbing someone repeatedly in the head in a frenzied knife attack, free the man, he claims he did not strike that blow to the heart? If the poor man had not dropped dead at that point Toal without a doubt would have continued. MOJ my arse! And here they are enticing others to commit violent attacks upon multiple innocent lives. Such outstanding characters are they not?!

These dangerous innocence fraud killers/people are supported and enabled by lots of ‘dangerous’ individuals inside prison also

Psychopathic Killer Simon Hall’s extremely cold, inconsiderate and manipulative side wasn’t called out a single time 


It was always someone else’s fault

Suspect un-convicted baby killer, sexual deviant and abusive fraudster Billy Middleton had lots in common with killer Simon Hall

Sandra Lean told numerous lies about many cases and individual’s and the ‘internet “hate campaign” she mentioned was her own aimed at other people, in which she attempted to discredit many people, especially those who saw through her and her former boyfriend and co-director un-convicted baby killer, sexual deviant, con-artist and abuser Billy Middleton.

This from Sandra Lean on 28th February 2010

“I have, until now, chosen to ignore the personal comments posted here, on the grounds that they are of no bearing on the discussions at hand. This latest post, however, leaves me no option but to respond. Mr Middleton was acquitted.

Much of what you post here is the same sensationalist media garbage that plays such a huge part in convicting innocent people.

I note you fail to mention that Mr Middleton set up an organisation to help other wrongly accused people, www.wronglyaccusedperson.org.uk and has devoted himself to that organisation since being acquitted.  I was honoured to be asked to join that organisation, and am proud to be part of it.

How you can attempt to pass yourself off as a champion of those suffering injustice, when you can stoop to these depths to smear an INNOCENT man, in your attempts to discredit me, is beyond me and, I suspect, any right thinking person.

Did you at any point stop to think about the appalling suffering you would cause Mr Middleton? Using the tragic accidental death of a baby, and the terrible grief of an entire family, to score points in a petty campaign to rubbish me is unforgivable.

Shame on you, Mr Beck.

It will, of course, be for Mr Middleton to decide whether he wishes to take legal action regarding the content and intention of this post.

Unconvicted baby killer, sexual deviant and abusive fraudster “take legal action

The same dangerous fraudster who one of his ex boss’s exposed - along with many other people (who knew Billy Middleton, long before Sandra Lean)

But Sandra Lean wanted fraudster Billy Middleton manipulative BS and fabricated narrative for her ‘study

"I do feel incredibly angry that Billy Middleton feels that he has the right to publish on the internet whatever he wants without fear of retribution.

Reading his MOJ2010 speech just puts my blood pressure right up because there is hardly one single paragraph that contains the whole truth. Unfortunately there is very little that I can state as "fact" as at it would mean exposing people and information that at the moment has to remain confidential. I am, however, now in a position to comment on the following subject things that I was told as Billy took it upon himself to expose his ex-wife as the person to whom the sexual assault charges concerned.

He himself describes the charge as "sexual abuse". I'm unclear why. As far as I know the charges were of sexual assault. To my mind sexual abuse indicates a more long term situation. A freudian slip, perhaps?. Maybe this was closer to the truth of what was happening in Billy and Kareen's relationship.

However Billy Middleton states: "They then threw in a charge of sexual abuse against my wife instead but both she and her uncle proved in court it was not physically possible because we were about 60 miles apart at the time and the doctor who examined her testified that there was no physical evidence to support it.

Billy put forward a special plea of 'consent' to the sexual assault charges yet in the statement above he is implying that it never happened and that this was "proved in court". He can't have it both ways - either his ex-wife consented or else it didn't happen, not both.

The only 'incident' of sexual assault Kareen discussed with me in any detail was the time that caused her to leave Billy in April/May 2007. Remember, this was about 2 years before the trial and 18 months before the fire. It was the first time I visited her at her aunt and uncle's house in Brae after she left Cullivoe with the kids. She told me what Billy had done to her. Needless to say, I was appalled. She was upset and confused and asked my advice on what to do. She spoke about going back to him as she was afraid if she left him for good what he would do. Billy was constantly texting her and using the children as a weapon against her, saying things like did she really want the kids to come from a broken home and she was to think about the effect all this was having on them. Things like that. I advised her not to go back to him. She was 3 months pregnant with Annalise at the time.

Did un-convicted baby killer, sexual deviant, con-artist and abuser Billy Middelton seek legal advice before naming the woman he sexually assaulted/abused ?

Posted: Wed Sep 14, 2011 10:11 am  http://simplybillymiddleton.myfreeforum.org/ftopic9-0.php
"For reasons only known to themselves the police never interviewed either myself or Kareen's counsellor whom she was seeing regarding unresolved issues from her childhood and also the difficulties she was experiencing within her own relationship with Billy. She told her counsellor everything.

However, following the trial Kareen's solicitor did take a statement from her counsellor. That is why Billy never fought to see the kids. His lies would be exposed before his family and he couldn't let that happen.
