Appeal over goth murder sentence
Sophie Lancaster, 20, was kicked and stamped to death by Brendan Harris, 15, and Ryan Herbert, 16, in Stubbylee Park in Bacup, Lancashire, last summer.
The pair turned on her as she tried to get them and three other youths to stop attacking her boyfriend, Robert Maltby.
~~~
What made this news stand out to me was what the judge said to the boys who killed her in court.
"This was a terrible case which has shocked and outraged all who have heard about it. At least wild animals, when they hunt in packs, have a legitimate reason for so doing, to obtain food. You have none and your behaviour on that night degrades humanity itself."
He described the Goth community as "perfectly peaceful law-abiding people who pose no threat to anybody" and added: "This was a hate crime against these completely harmless people targeted because their appearance was different to yours."
Good for you, judge, for saying those things. It's true. Sophie Lancaster, 20, was kicked and stamped to death by Brendan Harris, 15, and Ryan Herbert, 16, in Stubbylee Park in Bacup, Lancash... more -

It is now available on Amazon.com and BN.com but you can grab it from Lulu.com or ask for it at your local book store.
Horror in the vein of Richard Matheson, Stephen King, H.P. Lovecraft, Algernon Blackwood and H.G. Wells live in these pages but all by newer established authors including Ken Goldman, Everrette Bell, Terry Vinson, S.G. Cardin, Casey Gordon, and a never before published story by the editor himself.
