Teen's confession to killing teacher won't be used at trial
CBS/AP ^ | March 4, 2015

BOSTON - A Massachusetts teenager's confession to police that he killed his math teacher cannot be used in his murder trial, a judge ruled Tuesday even as he allowed a bloody box cutter and other key pieces of evidence to be admitted.

The ruling came in the case of 16-year-old Philip Chism, who has pleaded not guilty to raping and killing 24-year-old Danvers High School teacher Colleen Ritzer on school grounds in October 2013. Despite having been 14 at the time of the killing, Chism is charged as an adult.

That isn’t necessarily an unreasonable position. Police are very skilled at eliciting confessions, even from those who didn’t do it. If he didn’t confess with the presence of a lawyer, this is probably best.

They probably don’t need it anyway.

All is well, they have the Bloody Boxcutter from his pocket. So,
he should get at least a 6-month suspended sentence and 4-years probation.

What do they do to Rapists in Prison? Oh yea, they make them whores.

So called “trials” are a joke. A pissing contest between a couple goofyass “lawyers” and some pervert “judge”. Whether the subhuman killed somebody or not is irrelevant.

On a related note from a town with a great spirit despite satan’s visit in the form of Phillip Chism, Danvers’s High School basketball continues it’s undefeated 25-0 season in the state semi-finals at TD Garden Tuesday night.

I’ll be there! Go Falcons!!

Rot in hell, Phillip Chism!

Why won’t Obama say #WhiteLivesMatter?


Authorities say surveillance video from Oct. 22, 2013, shows Chism following Ritzer into a school bathroom, wearing gloves and a hood, then later walking out of the bathroom alone. A short time later, the video shows Chism pulling a recycling barrel through the school and outside.

Ritzer’s body was later found in nearby woods, naked from the waist down and with her throat slit and a note that read, “I hate you all.” Authorities said she was sexually assaulted with a stick. A bloody recycling bin was found nearby.

Was, this a case of a wild white youth, attacking a youthful black female teacher/ or perhaps a black male, teacher? Just wondering. So, what’s the word- on this rare crime of happenstance?

Feminists won’t pick up this case to denounce the #rapeculture in schools, either.

They have him on video wheeling a recycling bin out of the school. They found a recycling bin near the body. Plus DNA on her. He’s toast. Hope they hang him.

Someone's nightmare.

They have partial video of him wheeling the teacher out in a barrel along with a stack of other evidence.

Well, according to main stream press, the reporting of such events- are obviously under reported. Good grief, are you not paying attention?
