Teenager Found Guilty Of Girlfriend's Murder And Mutilation

Scotland - Teenager Luke Mitchell was found guilty at the High Court in Edinburgh today of murdering his girlfriend Jodi Jones.

The jury of eight women and seven men convicted the 16-year-old almost exactly 24 hours after beginning their deliberations.

Jodi, 14, went missing after going to meet her boyfriend in June 2003. Hours later her mutilated body was found close to her Midlothian home.

Jodi's boyfriend Mitchell had denied murdering the 14-year-old schoolgirl in woods near her home in Dalkeith, Midlothian, on June 30 2003.

The judge, Lord Nimmo Smith, told the 16-year-old today that he would face “detention without limit of time”.

Addressing Mitchell, the judge said he had been convicted of “a truly evil murder”.

I wish a painful death on anybody who blames music for murders. You can't spew bullshit when you're dead.

Manson: 'Don't blame me for Jodi'

A DVD by Manson was shown during the Jodi Jones trial
Goth rock star Marilyn Manson has dismissed a judge's suggestion that his work influenced the killer of 14-year-old schoolgirl Jodi Jones.
Luke Mitchell was sentenced on Friday to a minimum of 20 years in prison for the murder of his girlfriend Jodi in June 2003 at Dalkeith, Midlothian.

Judge Lord Nimmo Smith said his Manson fascination could have been a factor.

But the singer told the Sunday Mail it was "all about" Mitchell's upbringing and not "putting blame elsewhere".

'Similar injuries'

Jodi was stripped, tied up and stabbed to death in woods near her home, the High Court in Edinburgh heard.

What I do know is that it is all about the education that parents give their children and the influences they receive, not putting the blame elsewhere

Marilyn Manson

Lord Nimmo Smith said he could not ignore the similarities between the injuries inflicted on Jodi and those in Manson's paintings of Elizabeth Short.

The would-be Hollywood actress was killed in 1947 in what became known as the Black Dahlia murder.

"I think that you carried an image of the paintings in your memory when you killed Jodi," he told Mitchell.

Manson told the Sunday Mail newspaper he had heard of the Jodi case but did not want to "give it too much publicity".

"What I do know is that it is all about the education that parents give their children and the influences they receive, not putting the blame elsewhere," he said.

'Mental damage'

The trial heard evidence of Mitchell's cannabis use and the judge said he did not consider it a harmless recreational drug.

"I believe that in some instances at least it can seriously damage the mental processes of those who habitually consume drugs," he said.

"In your case I think that it may well have contributed to your being unable to make the distinction between fantasy and reality which is essential for normal moral judgments."

He also said he could not dismiss Mitchell's fascination with Satanism as "mere adolescent rebellion".

"I think that is a sign that you found evil attractive and that you thought that there might be a kind of perverted glamour in doing something wicked," he said.

Defence QC Donald Findlay said the fight to clear Mitchell's name would continue.

He told the court: "So long as that young man maintains to me he did not kill Jodi the fight to clear his name will go on."

The evidence against Luke Mitchell in this case seemed really flimsy, a complete lack of DNA evidence and very little in terms of motive, it did seem from watching local news, that it was a case of lock up the 'wierdo'.
It just shows the lunacy of totally out of touch judges who blame goth music and cannabis for appalling crimes against a person.

[Vodstok]

A painting inspired by the Black Dahlia murder supposedly inspired a murder?

How about a picture of the actual murder victim? Obviously, Scotland is not without the internet.

I think anyone who blames art, in any form, for a person's behavior should be stripped of their stature, Judges should be banned from ever presiding, lawyers should be disbarred for life, and parents should be neutered and their children sent to foster families. They are destroying everything because of their fear and lack of responsibility.

Whatever..
Dre, just let it run
Aiyyo turn the beat up a little bit
Aiyyo.. this song is for anyone.. fuck it
Just shut up and listen, aiyyo..

I sit back with this pack of zig zags and this bag
Of this weed it gives me the shit needed to be
The most meanest mc on this -- on this earth
And since birth I’ve been cursed with this curse to just curse
And just blurt this berserk and bizarre shit that works
And it sells and it helps in itself to relieve
All this tension dispensin these sentences
Gettin this stress that’s been eatin me recently off of this chest
And I rest again peacefully (peacefully)..
But at least have the decency in you
To leave me alone, when you freaks see me out
In the streets when I’m eatin or feedin my daughter
To not come and speak to me (speak to me)..
I don’t know you and no,
I don’t owe you a mo-therfuck-in thing
I’m not mr. n’sync, I’m not what your friends think
I’m not mr. friendly, I can be a prick
If you tempt me my tank is on empty (is on empty)..
No patience is in me and if you offend me
I’m liftin you 10 feet (liftin you 10 feet).. in the air
I don’t care who is there and who saw me destroy you
Go call you a lawyer, file you a lawsuit
I’ll smile in the courtroom and buy you a wardrobe
I’m tired of all you (of all you)..
I don’t mean to be mean but that’s all I can be is just me

Chorus: eminem

And I am, whatever you say I am
If I wasn’t, then why would I say I am?
In the paper, the news everyday I am
Radio won’t even play my jam
Cause I am, whatever you say I am
If I wasn’t, then why would I say I am?
In the paper, the news everyday I am
I don’t know it’s just the way I am

[eminem]
Sometimes I just feel like my father, I hate to be bothered
With all of this nonsense it’s constant
And, oh, it’s his lyrical content -
- the song ’guilty conscience’ has gotten such rotten responses
And all of this controversy circles me
And it seems like the media immediately
Points a finger at me (finger at me)..
So I point one back at ’em, but not the index or pinkie
Or the ring or the thumb, it’s the one you put up
When you don’t give a fuck, when you won’t just put up
With the bullshit they pull, cause they full of shit too
When a dude’s gettin bullied and shoots up his school
And they blame it on marilyn (on marilyn).. and the heroin
Where were the parents at? and look where it’s at
Middle america, now it’s a tragedy
Now it’s so sad to see, an upper class ci-ty
Havin this happenin (this happenin)..
Then attack eminem cause I rap this way (rap this way)..
But I’m glad cause they feed me the fuel that I need for the fire
To burn and it’s burnin and I have returned

Chorus

[eminem]
I’m so sick and tired of bein admired
That I wish that I would just die or get fired
And dropped from my label and stop with the fables
I’m not gonna be able to top on my name is..
And pigeon-holed into some pop-py sensation
To cop me rotation at rock’n’roll stations
And I just do not got the patience (got the patience)..
To deal with these cocky caucasians who think
I’m some wigger who just tries to be black cause I talk
With an accent, and grab on my balls, so they always keep askin
The same fuckin questions (fuckin questions)..
What school did I go to, what hood I grew up in
The why, the who what when, the where, and the how
’til I’m grabbin my hair and I’m tearin it out
Cause they drivin me crazy (drivin me crazy).. I can’t take it
I’m racin, I’m pacin, I stand and I sit
And I’m thankful for ev-ery fan that I get
But I can’t take a shit, in the bathroom
Without someone standin by it
No I won’t sign your autograph
You can call me an asshole I’m glad

Chorus
