Andrina Bryson testimony VS Innocents Betrayed

-

 



Page 125 of Innocents Betrayed: Mrs Bryson picked out Luke’s photo as “very like” the person she saw on the afternoon of June 30th, even though she was clear that she did not see the face of that person.

What do the transcripts say?

This same statement appears to be read out during page 183 of Mrs Bryson's evidence: 

"Image 4 is very, very like the male I saw at the top of the path".

The witness also goes on to say (and this is not mentioned in Innocents Betrayed)

In regards to the photograph - "It looked like a person who was there that day, yes"

She is questioned regarding pointing out the photograph showed to her by Police

And did you point that photograph out to Police? - I did, yes

And why did you point that person out to the Police, who did, do you think the person was? - I took it to be the person I saw that day

She also said "I'm sure as I can be that it is the same male"

The age of the girl at the path

Innocents Betrayed, page 123: She did not see her face and could not guess an age. 

Actually, the witness did provide an estimate of the age of the girl

From her original statement given to Police on July 2nd 2003:

"I would describe the girl as female, white, approximately 15-16 years, 5 ft 5 inches, slim build. Dark hair, quite thick, not straight, possibly a wavy wave or curl through it. Her hair reached down on to and just past her shoulders"

The Luke Mitchell campaign - how have things deteriorated to this?

-
Image
  There was a time when campaigners fighting the claimed wrongful conviction of Luke Mitchell raged against the vilification of a 14 year old boy, who they shouted, had not been proven to have committed the crime. Their fight fueled by the abhorrent public denigration of an individual, by a media who cared not for facts, only sensationalism. While the campaign has evolved from the 2021 documentary, in to a petition and protests - recent online presence from campaign leaders, one in particular, seems to be well represented in the screen shots below.  This online torrent of personal attacks appears to come as a response to campaigners highlighting discrepancies between newly released transcripts, and freedom of information responses - and 'case facts' provided by the two main campaign leaders.  Some of the people asking questions are individuals who have dedicated the past few years of their lives to fighting for the truth and believing that a miscarriage of justice had occurred.

An article in the Scottish sun 20/11/22, titled 'I found a knife in a skip near where school girl Jodi Jones was murdered - before it vanished', states: " Lawyer Scott Forbes, part of Mitchell’s legal team, said: This is the real missing knife."  “Like so much of the evidence, it was either destroyed or went missing if it didn’t fit the police narrative.” A car mechanic from the Garage also said  “When I learned it wasn’t documented, it raised my suspicions the police may have tried to conceal the discovery.” Article Link:   https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/news/9795271/knife-skip-jodi-jones-murdered/ Scott Forbes discusses the knife in the skip in an interview on YouTube channel Premeditated patter, 01/01/23.

Transcript comparisons

   A comparison is made between the information in the transcripts from Luke Mitchell's trial - and information out there in the public domain - particularly books written about the case such as Innocents Betrayed, by Sandra Lean. The purpose of this is not to argue guilt or innocence but to compare information and highlight misinformation. (IB = Innocents Betrayed by Dr Sandra Lean) Luke's other girlfriend - Page 169 IB "The claim that he was planning to visit her again in July 2003 was based on Corinne’s plan to holiday in the same place – a plan that had since been cancelled. Jodi and Luke were, in fact, planning a sleepover at a friend’s house the following weekend as part of a birthday celebration – the very weekend the prosecution alleged Luke would be going to see (KT). None of the available evidence supported the claim that Luke was seeing another girl" Corinne's Transcript 13/01/2005 pages 2263 and 2264 P2263 :   Right, was he supposed to be visiting K at
