If it wisnae him, who was it? Initial Reaction After Reading Case Summaries

[Steve_uk]

i appreciate the reply and stating you think Luke is guilty. What are the main factors that make you believe that?

Apparently there was DNA found at the scene. Did you read the link at #114?

There's a chilling article here: https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottish-news/hard-facts-prove-luke-mitchell-23588583

Yes its pretty much the prosecution case against Luke but all weak points imo.  If existing threads do not cover the individual strands in the attached I will start up new ones.

DNA on items of Jodi's clothing which the defence and prosecution agreed was meaningless since the pair were having an intimate relationship.  DNA from Jodi's sister's boyfriend was also found on jodi's tshirt but this was also disregarded since the tshirt apparently belonged to her sister.

Wasn't there a devil component in the Wembley Park stabbings? I'm also trying to recollect a young man who killed a female on the South Coast, but I can't recall at the moment.

Sorry Ray I have spent a few hours looking at the case and from what I have seen my verdict would be quilty.

Interesting that you and David believe Luke Mitchell guilty but Bamber innocent.  The case against Bamber is far stronger imo. 

Luke's case is entirely circumstantial.  In Bamber's case there is circumstantial and direct evidence.

I don't know but if the perp was unknown to the victims that would be quite damning evidence.

In Luke's case the fact he was not only known to the victim but also in an intimate relationship with her makes it impossible to say whether DNA was deposited as a result of innocent transfer ie when they were involved in a consensual relationship and what might have been deposited as a result of any foul play. 

We know Jodi had been grounded during the lead up to the murder but I am assuming the pair had the opportunity to be together to and from school and at lunchtime.

Where's the direct evidence in JB's case ? You can answer on the back of a postage stamp if you like !

ive read loads about the case. I was just interested to know how people decide and based on what. Ive done the same with my own case

I remember the case of 6 year old Rikki Neave in 1994 who was found murdered in woodland close to his home.  His body posed in a star position.  The police were convinced his mother was involved.  She allowed Rikki to go and pick up recreational drugs for her use.  They constructed a case against her which went to trial but the jury could only find her guilty on neglect charges.  Lo and behold nearly 3 decades later the police have charged a man in connection with the murder and the trial is currently underway. 

This week I've been watching on iplayer 'Four Lives'/Stephen Port.  If anyone wants evidence of police ineptitude this series will not disappoint!

You started it by mentioning JB's name ! I've met your sort before, a crafty individual who'd walk out of an argument that you'd started !
