Strangely, I took this whole case very personally when it appeared in the press. Usually I cringe when people live out media tragedies vicariously, but maybe this just hit closer to home. Also, speaking about the media, it's odd how the BBC's report seems to have different names, number of defendants and sentences to the Guardian - well, what do the media set care? It's only a couple of goths, eh?
