And there’s more....allegedly trying to drown a girl....am tired and off to bed...it’s in the Mail if anyone cares to link it

 

[arrogantcat]

Daily Mail now reporting rumours that he “tried to drown” a girl and had previously “sexually assaulted” another:

Yup, you can say it once it's in the media. If he tortured and killed animals, no doubt he was a serial killer in the making.

Was that not one of Jeffrey Dahmer's traits?

I believe so...he takes pleasure is causing others pain..he would have found as many opportunities as he could as he went through life if he'd had the chance.

I hope his girlfriend didn't have any pets

"More recently he is said to have sexually abused a teenage girl and shown compromising mobile phone pictures of her to his friends. None of these stories can be corroborated, but they are doing the rounds on Bute"

I'd wondered about the much mentioned local whispers. I guess I know now.

This is what some of us knew from sometime ago

 

[arrogantcat]

Torturing animals is a very common childhood/teenage pre-occupation of psychopaths - all psychopaths, not just the ones that go on to commit murder.

Yes - been swirling for a round but now we have a MSN source which means it’s ok to discuss here

Did anyone find these videos online?

During the investigation, videos of him playing them with chilling commentary were discovered.

In one scene he enters a creepy house shrouded in darkness.

He picks up a key from a table and uses it to unlock a door with blood streaming over it in the shape of an X.

The boy can be heard hamming up his fear as he plays the game.

He says: “It’s giving me options on where to go.

So he was born evil then...

if all of that was covered up by people’s then they need to take a serious look at themselves.

And I guess we all should be reminded that wrong is wrong no matter what relationship so there are no more Alesha’s.

My head and heart ache

(Was about to quote the Daily Mail rumours but about five of you beat me to it )

I can well see why it seemed that locals suspected he was involved now, seems he ticks plenty of boxes for psychopath in the making, I'm all the more glad the jury reached the right decision as I don't think anyone would be too safe if he was free. Glad the papers have managed to get the info out even if they can't identify him, the context makes a differencein coming to see how it could happen; it's not just a random thing from someone with no history but part of a clear pattern. Hope the judge can get him locked up for life, or as near as possible within the legal limits, if all that's just come out is true he's never likely to change.

"He wasn’t a violent boy. He was very normal. Yes, he smoked cannabis, but it’s rife among kids on this island"

Pfft. What about the 3 dead cats buried in your garden?

 

[jiminy]

"The worst thing is the accused loved the attention. The casual smirks when the jury were out told you all you needed to know. He didn’t even need to give evidence, but he wanted the limelight."

Alesha MacPhail was a tiny angel murdered by a coward who wanted attention

Yes, he has at least two YT channels. The vids described seemed like typical teen mucking about to me, to be honest, just like his snapchats with his friends.

Along with everything else that is about to be made public

 

[bronbaby]

I wouldn't be surprised if the convict himself asked, no ... demanded! That his identity be made public... unless, he's not feeling quite so self assured now.


I was relieved this afternoon to hear the guilty verdict, even more reassured by the unanimous vote by all 15 jury members.

But, almost instantly, that relief just turned to sadness ... none of it brings Alesha back.

I WANT to try and understand WHY he did this. I'm aware of background having an influence but this is just too too horrible.

And more horrible is his apparent enjoyment of the whole trial process!

My brain and my heart hurts in equal measure.

Hi mrazda7,
Curious as to what you mean by his “background having an influence”

Are they still up or has the police/parent taken them down? Not asking for link or name etc just curious.. xx

This does not seem typical to me

Other clips discovered were equally gruesome, including one showing a premature baby dying in a sink.

After seeing the blood-soaked foetus, his boyish voice repeats: “What the *advertiser censored**, what the *advertiser censored**, what the *advertiser censored**?” He says: “I want out now. Oh my God, the shivers.”

But his mock fear quickly turns to delight as he adds: “Well guys, this has been the introduction to what seems to be the best demo I’ve ever seen — I will totally be playing the full game.”
