Glad he's convicted of murder.

Wouldn't be an easy thing to live with what he told the girl in England. Pretty much confessed he was going to kill someone.

What a weak not even having the guts to take the stand in court. That's a pretty big admission of guilt there. If you accidentally killed someone from "misadventure" in a sex act... Wouldn't you take the stand to explain what happened, why you reacted the way you did and give one HELL OF AN APOLOGY to her family and friends for your behaviour and what you put them thru?

No remorse. He will never change.
 
JAYDE REMEMBERED AS BEAUTIFUL AND TRUSTING

'Slain Queensland schoolgirl Jayde Kendall has been remembered as a beautiful, hard working young woman whose trusting nature may have been her downfall.'

'Outside court father Bruce Morrissey, who raised Jayde alone after her mother died when she was seven, said his beautiful daughter's death was a "senseless waste".

"She was just kind and sweet in nature and she was very trusting," Mr Morrissey said.

"That could have been part of her downfall, being naive and trusting."'

'Grandfather Denis Morrissey told the court on Thursday his family was serving a life sentence not being able to watch Jayde grow into a gorgeous and thoughtful young woman focused on her bright future.

"To know we can never have these times again tears our heart out," he said.'
 
[h=1]Dad's warning after Jayde's killer jailed[/h]The father of murdered schoolgirl Jayde Kendall has warned the parole board to "think about your own children" when considering releasing her killer Brenden Bennetts in the future.
Bennetts was sentenced to life in prison on Thursday after a jury took just four hours to reach a guilty verdict for murder.





https://au.news.yahoo.com/qld/a/37081188/jury-deliberating-in-bennetts-murder-trial/
 
"Your ability to calmly detach from events around you is alarming and concerning as is your calculated web of lies and deception," Justice Lyons said.
"You showed no respect for her body after death, just as you had shown no respect for her in the last moments of her life."
Justice Lyons' comments were echoed outside court by Jayde's father Bruce Morrissey who sent a message to the parole board who may one day decide to release Bennetts back into the community.
"Think about those that you love and care about around you and then ask yourself would you feel safe, him being around your daughters, your children," Mr Morrissey said.

Crucial evidence uncovered at 11th hour

'Damning evidence that revealed Brenden Bennetts searched online for "best way to dispose of a body" the day before he killed schoolgirl Jayde Kendall was only unearthed the day his murder trial began.

The last-minute find meant the YouTube search was almost kept from the Brisbane Supreme Court jury, which convicted the 21-year-old of murder on Thursday afternoon.'

'It can now be revealed crucial evidence showing Bennetts may have premeditated Jayde's death was only discovered on the first day of his trial.

Police computer analyst Neil Robertson was reviewing his report into data gleaned from Bennetts' Samsung handset on September 4 when he came across a previously unnoticed YouTube search.

It showed Bennetts had searched for "best way to dispose of a body" at 12.19pm on August 13, 2015 - the day before he killed Jayde.'

'Defence barrister Michael Copley QC failed in a bid to have the new evidence kept from the jury, arguing there was no way to know what, if any, search results Bennetts actually looked at.

But prosecutor Vicki Loury QC said it did not matter what results Bennetts received or watched, just the fact he had made the search at that point in time.

The new evidence drastically changed the course of the trial as it led to Justice Ann Lyons also allowing previously inadmissible Facebook conversations between Bennetts and Dillan Gilmore in England to be read to the jury.'

Thank god they found that! I strongly believe those two pieces of evidence were what made the jury convict him of murder. (the search for 'how to dispose of a body' and the Facebook conversation where he says he'll know soon what it's like to lose someone)

Ahh beautiful Jayde, it is justice, not enough by far but something.
 
There ended up being far too much evidence stacked up against him for him NOT to be convicted of murder.

His search on YouTube. His conversation with the friend in England. Continuously changing his story as more evidence was presented to him. His locations caught on his mobile phone. Admitting to killing her by manslaughter but never taking the stand in court.

Withdrawing money from her bank account. Geez. Its horrible to imagine how he threatened her to get her pin number.

Yet, still murdered her.

He picked a vunerable girl. A easy target.

Showed no remorse. I hope he is never let out.

AYDE Kendall's grandfather Denis Morrissey voiced his thanks to the schoolgirl's hometown on Monday.

After her killer's trial in Brisbane concluded, he asked for residents' consideration in the aftermath of Bennetts' sentencing.

"We wanted to thank the community for their ongoing support throughout the last two years," he said.

"There are two families hurting in our community for different reasons; ours and Bennetts'.

"We wanted to share our thoughts, prayers and compassion with his parents, siblings and grandparents because it's not their fault.

"They didn't do anything wrong, and we don't want to see them vilified."

Mr Morrissey said his family could not have asked for anything more than what the judge and jury handed down last week.
 
Apart from the inaccuracy of the headline, ie; Jayde Kendall was not married to the perpetrator, BB is appealing his life sentence for her murder:

‘Brenden Bennetts is appealing against his life sentence and conviction for the murder of Queensland schoolgirl Jayde Kendall.

Bennetts was last month found guilty by a Supreme Court jury of killing 16-year-old Jayde and dumping her body in a field on the outskirts of Gatton in August 2015.

The 21-year-old lodged an appeal against his conviction and sentence on Wednesday. ’

He does have the right to appeal. He also has the right to study Law and Psychology and lots of things while he is incarcerated.
He will have lots to keep him busy.

I have emailed Daily Mail Australia and reported the ‘factual inaccuracy’ of Jayde being the ‘teenage wife’ of the perpetrator.
