It depends so much on the jury. If the judge is good at his job, he will essentially give the jury a crash course in relevant law/ethics/procedures etc and supervise and explain what exactly they are supposed to be doing. But given that, all it takes is one or two not listening properly to the judge or disregarding him, one or two trying to influence others, a few individuals who are easily swayed or won't properly examine the facts and evidence for themselves and bingo you've got a mess.

​@strangenostalga4296 not lies. Joseph Jones - Jodi Jones's brother has serious mental health problems. He battered Jodi in May 2003 and was sectioned in the Royal Edinburgh Hospital. He was put on maximum psychotic meds. He was released and Jodi was murdered on 30 June 2003. Joseph is known to carry a Bowie knife. He has a violent history towards family especially.

I just couldn’t imagine being found guilty and not a shred of evidence to prove it. Then spend 17 years before someone finally looks back into it. This is a cautionary tale for anyone to not play with satanic rubbish!

Good point, but in actual fact the Mitchell Satanism thing was just made up by PC Plod. He owned 1 Manson CD and the 666 scribblings on his jotters were the words from a computer game.

[@kiwimema4300]

It’s obvious to me that the boyfriend didn’t do this, the perpetrator was much older than 14 and has definitely been killing other things to build up to this and why would he kill his girlfriend. He’s just not the right type, devil worshiping 14 year old boys don’t do sexually motivated murders!

[@begachka]

Don't think he was even a devil worshipper, more Cobain than Crowley.

[@scotsgirlie1970]

@kiwimema4300 the last person to see her alive was actually "Stocky Man" who was seen following her. Stocky Man was identified as her older brother Joseph Jones who had a history of violence towards her and many others also.

He is innocent. Set him free

[@louisehudson1915]

I think prosecution star witness was lead & cohersed in her statement without really knowing. I believe luke didn't kill Jodi & it must be tough for him & his mum fighting for his release. I hope that comes about & luke is compensated not that that'll make up for the year's of his life stolen but it'll help him in fresh start in life .

[@bonniejean207]

Exhume the body of Kane and test his DNA against the condom, also test the moped boys DNA and the sister's boyfriend's DNA too? None of that was mentioned? Why?

[@sinneadfert]

The "legal" system cannot and will not admit when they've made a mistake. I've read and heard about so many that police have focused on as the sole perpetrator, only to have them exonerated after years spent in prison. That appears to be what happened in this case as well. The police and prosecutor were more concerned with an arrest and conviction than in finding the truth.

[@helenmurray3964]

In my opinion This young women did not die where she was found. There where more than one person who killed and moved her . Especially when someone destroyed the crime scene with bleach. No large amount of blood Considering it should be a blood bath scene.

[@lesliegennicecox5438]

The justice system should be ashamed on how they failed Luke. I thought they were smarter than that. Its clear that Luke is innocent. What reason did he have to want to hurt Jodi. Nothing! I think she walked up on a bad person at the wrong time. So sad. And where is the weapon? The real killer probably still has it.

[@cathyprosser1050]

So sad. Extremely sad that Jodi was so horrifically murdered. But it seems to me that justice for Jodi has yet to be served up to anyone involved. Luke is, in my opinion based on the evidence presented in these documentaries innocent and Jodi's killer was unfortunately not identified. Her killer left behind his DNA but authorities failed to fully follow the path the EVIDENCE was showing them. Instead they focused like a laser on Luke and built their case with the help of the media and an innocent man paid the price he did not owe😢. His Mum has also paid a very high price that she did not owe either. Heartbreaking.

[@karenh4458]

This is too sad for words. Can they not assist in a campaign to bring public opinion round?

[@shay4415]

WOW- he is INNOCENT!! Where is the outrage?!?! Beyond the lack of evidence against Luke, the mountain of suspicious evidence surrounding several others, the many professionals/experts who believe he is innocent, I think the fact that if he would admit guilt when in front of the parole board and he refuses and will forever continue to refuse, I think that is so telling. This is awful…. They need to let him out.

​@@carriejorobinson4829I witnesses are known for being weak evidence. Even this girl got the majority of feet majority of how they looked wrong when they did the test. They always do that in many cases eyewitness testimony has been wrong. Unless you actually have it on video and even video can be fuzzy. Another question did they check her vision? Does she see 2020 or better? Why don't they test her again putting her in a different situation see if she can identify the person I think it's because she knew it was him so she just said him because he's in all the papers.
