Hi all,
I posted in the early hours of the morning and Edinlass replied with some questions that, at the time , she seemed genuinely intrigued by what my response would be. It's all academic now but i'm willing to answer anything regarding my post if that's what people want. I'm saying this simply for closure as i would have replied had i caught up with the thread in time. Same goes for Ciana.
Thanks to beeseingyou for making some very good points and echoing many of my thoughts about the case, again i would have quoted and liked the posts had i read them in real time but it was good to see an alternative view expressed so eloquently throughout.
Personally, i feel a miscarriage of justice has occurred here (be it partially or completely) but the verdict is in and i guess we'll have to file this one under 'nothing to see here, let's move on' as happens all too often in high profile cases.
This case has been a real eye opener. How a young boy can commit such a crime and appear so normal before and directly after the event is baffling. He is so cunning and meticulous as to leave not a shred of evidence at the victims house or his house but so careless as to leave a complete mess of a crime scene. That doesn't make sense.
