The mum of a schoolboy who was fatally stabbed has called for 'trial juries to be diverse to avoid racial bias.'
She told how she is 'still seeking justice' after her son's killer was jailed for manslaughter.
Hmmm...oh. This case.
"I didn't get any justice. I feel so upset about it. It feels like Dea-John has been killed once more," Joan told BirminghamLive.
"Someone was chasing my son with a knife, stabbing and killing them. How can that be? Dea-John didn't do anything. He was running away for his life and how can he be a threat to him?
"I don't expect my son should go like this. I sat in the trial for six-weeks and thought I would get justice, but there was no justice."
Given he was - as almost always these days! - no angel, the only real surprise here is that he wasn't killed by someone of his own race:
Dea-John was part of a group who tried to take a bag from a 16-year-old on parkland.
But of course, the usual suspects see an opportunity:
A protest march is planned starting at Twickenham Park, on College Road, in Kingstanding, from 1pm, on Saturday, July 9.
Bishop Desmond Jaddoo:"That jury did not reflect Birmingham. The city is a black and Asian majority city."
And it's a byword for peace and brotherly love as a result, eh?
I notice it's only the boy's mother complaining. Why didn't the boy's father comment? Does anyone know who he is, or where he is?
ReplyDeleteMoral of this story - committing street crime, especially robbery and theft, can get you killed, so don't do it.

All true plus a vote of thanks to for the MSM for giving us the exact racial breakdown of the jury while blandly referring to the actual victim as a '16 year old'.
ReplyDeleteSay, might that '16 year old' happen to be.... white?
They're desperate to hide the fact that what we have here is a racist mob that attacked a lone boy then got chased off with the subsequent death of one of the gang.
Hey, if the races were reversed the same race hustlers would be out there right now demanding the killer not only be released but he given a knighthood.
The trouble this woman will have in changing the law is that I think you can't have previous convictions and serve on a jury. That will rule out more mixed juries.
ReplyDeletePlus someone needs to whisper in her ear...." your son was a little shit and probably deserved it"

The Department of Justice might struggle to get enough black and Asian citizens to fulfil their civic duty to carry out jury duty.
ReplyDeleteSome truths are better left unspoken,Jaded.
ReplyDeleteI did jury service before I joined the police, way back in 1981. It was at Croydon Crown Court and the pool of jurors wasn't very diverse. However the defendants were...four street robbers caught bang to rights.

ReplyDeleteIn case the CSA noticed..?
"... a vote of thanks to for the MSM for giving us the exact racial breakdown of the jury while blandly referring to the actual victim as a '16 year old'."
One of those 'children' they don't want the police to Taser or get too grabby when they arrest them...
"I think you can't have previous convictions and serve on a jury. That will rule out more mixed juries."
I expect it won't be long before that's dropped.
"...the pool of jurors wasn't very diverse. However the defendants were...four street robbers caught bang to rights."
You mean 'disadvantaged youths who turned to crime because of the lack of youth clubs'..?
