'Feral' killer is former Whitworth High pupil


2/ 5/2008

ONE OF the two teenage thugs given long prison sentences this week for the murder of a student in a Bacup park is a former Whitworth High School pupil.

Fifteen-year-old Brendan Harris, who was ordered to be detained for a minimum of 18 years by a judge at Preston Crown Court for the brutal slaying of Sophie Lancaster, was a student at Whitworth until 2006 when he moved to Scotland.

   Has anyone else noticed how all of the offenders seem to have a collective IQ of about 5.

   Lets face facts Brendon Harris and the many others like him will never be of any use to society, The way I see it they just have no right to exist.

   His mother fled the court room in tears?

It's a shame she didn't know where her boys were in the early hours of the morning.

Throw the key away and show a true example. They should never see daylight again , just as Sohie wont.
