Levi Bellfield!!

He’s a piece of work isn’t he?!

The Russell murders was the 1st case that really stayed with me and shocked me as a teenager and I have followed it ever since.

I’d love for there to be a definitive answer and right the right person to be held accountable but Bellfield is a classic narcissist and psychopath and toying with this confession and all the details he’s given to get a bit of lime light and cause further distress is right up his street...

I read today what when he finally gave all the really awful details of Milly Dowlers murder he would only do so to female officers...make of rhat what you will!

I’ve also seen that the police believe he could be behind many other murders and assaults in the London’s area and beyond, I think of all the old crime watch reconstructions, cold cases that come into the press often and think which of those he could be behind and the poor families still waiting for answers...

He’s an absolute piece of shit. He needs to swing but then we’d never find out the full extent of his crimes.

Michael stone! One of my first thoughts reading the latest news was for him

Fuckityfucksake · 06/02/2022 13:04

Vile monster!
You're right OP the sick bastard will be enjoying this.
He's had plenty opportunity to admit to the other stuff he's done, there'll be more.

Josie Russell, the daughter who survived, is now a textile artist and makes beautiful things. If anyone deserves attention, she does. Not this man who only knows how to destroy.

Has he confessed to the Russell murders? I had heard that he was a suspect when his other offences came to light . Watched a couple of documentaries about him, interviews with his ex partner etc. Also the taped police interviews. He really is an appalling piece of subhuman detritus and it's pleasing that he will never be released to take any more innocent lives!!

Yes me too.

How awful that someone innocent has spent so much of their life behind bars for something they didn’t do.

Yes he has given in a 4 page confession.

I have just watched Manhunt (Martin Clunes portraying the dectective who finally caught Levi Bellfield) and was horrified by this awful man. I believe he has converted to Islam in prison yet I refuse to believe he is now confessing for altruistic reasons. He seems totally narcissistic.

mumsiedarlingrevolta · 06/02/2022 15:08

I was also absolutely shocked when i heard the news!!!

If it is true poor Michael Stone-

but Levi Bellfield is such an absolutely vile man I don't know if it is true but agree he is loving the attention and drama.

Tillymintpolo · 06/02/2022 15:09

I’m not in favour of the death penalty but I would make an exception for him

TokyoSushi · 06/02/2022 15:10

He's absolutely one of the most horrific people we've ever had in the UK

Heytheredemons · 06/02/2022 15:11

For some years, I believed he was responsible for those awful murders of Lynn and Megan. Let's hope Josie, her father and the man wrongly committed just so police can get a heinous crime closed, finally get justice, and are able to move on from this heartbreaking situation

CovidCorvid · 06/02/2022 15:11

Hasn’t he confessed before but then withdrawn it? I agree that he likes the attention and just because he says he’s done it doesn’t mean he has. But if it’s true then it’s awful for Stone.

I absolutely agree with this. She’s a very talented artist and makes the world a better place.
ShirleyPhallus · 06/02/2022 15:17

I thought there was some news about him from the thread title. Yes, what a piece of absolute shit.

The girl who he ran over, who survived, wow her story is awful

Beepus · 06/02/2022 15:18

I think it's understandable that people are calling for the death penalty for Bellfield but I think this situation shows more than anything why the death penalty should never return to the UK

teaandtoastwithmarmite · 06/02/2022 15:22

I always thought he'd killed the Russell's. I still think it and really feel for Michael stone. I find him fascinating in the sense of how much of a evil fuck he is.

AlternativePerspective · 06/02/2022 15:23

I’m not convinced.

It goes without saying that he is a morally reprehensible piece of filth, but it’s not uncommon for notorious murderers like him to make fake confessions in order to A, gain attention and B, gain further notoriety in prison.

The police have already urged caution here, and Michael Stone has been denied appeal on several occasions.

I think we can hold off the sympathy for him until or if there is a prosecution.

GeneLovesJezebel · 06/02/2022 15:24

I agree that I wouldn’t believe him yet.

AlternativePerspective · 06/02/2022 15:25

Reading the part of that confession which has been revealed in the bbc article, it just smacks of being fake to me. All that talk of how his head was in the wrong place etc etc and then going on to tell the whole story of how he did it etc.

Sorry but I just don’t believe it. I absolutely believe that he was capable of it make no mistake, but I still believe that Michael Stone is guilty as fuck.

Beepus · 06/02/2022 15:31

Did they ever give the DNA results for the boot lace that the police lost?

CremeEggThief · 06/02/2022 15:32

Another one here who isn't sure if he's telling the truth or getting kicks out of the attention... Evil, evil man.

TimBoothseyes · 06/02/2022 15:36

Unless his confession contains information only the police and the attacker knew then it's not worth the paper it's written on.

NeverDropYourMooncup · 06/02/2022 15:46

I wouldn't believe a word it says.

ComDummings · 06/02/2022 15:48

He lies for attention
