New Ferry teenager gets detention after stabbing
A YOUTH stabbed his friend in the back after a row over an unfounded rape allegation, a court has heard.
Simon Kelly had been arrested about two months earlier following an alleged rape but police decided not to charge him after analysis of DNA evidence.
On August 5 last year he spent the day with his friend, Daniel Turnbull, and they ended up at Kelly's home drinking.
Kelly's brother Stephen and his sister, Ali, were also there and the catalyst for trouble was when Stephen and Mr Turnbull began talking about the rape allegation, said Simon Duncan, prosecuting.
There was some pushing and shoving which culminated in Kelly storming off about 10.30pm.
About an hour later Mr Turnbull went home to his flat in New Ferry accompanied by Stephen.
Later Kelly arrived with his sister and the dispute erupted again, said Mr Duncan.
Mr Turnbull was in the kitchen making a cup of tea when Kelly repeatedly shouted at him to get out of the kitchen.
He glared at Mr Turnbull and grabbed the knife block and held a large knife in his right hand and four knives in his left hand.
As Mr Turnbull left the kitchen he looked back and saw Kelly lunging at him with the biggest knife and he arched his back to avoid injury.
He continued walking and did not feel any pain but then discovered he had been stabbed in the right shoulder blade.
He heard knives being thrown at Mr Kelly's brother and sister and Kelly was ejected from the flat. Mr Turnbull did not initially make a complaint to police as they were friends but later did so.
He had suffered a four cm full thickness cut to his shoulder blade which needed three stitches.
Kelly, 18, of Winstanley Road, New Ferry, pleaded guilty to wounding and was sentenced to 16 months detention.
Chris Williams, defending, said that after the rape allegation Kelly had been arrested and had samples taken after which the police decided to take no further action.
Meanwhile jobless Kelly had been targeted and was the subject of graffiti in the area and he was upset when the matter was brought up again that night.
His partner gave birth to his first child, a boy, just three days ago, said Mr Williams.
Judge Gerald Clifton told Kelly: "The Court of Appeal has made it clear that injuries caused by knives in criminal circumstances are very serious indeed.
"I would be failing in my duty if I passed a non-custodial sentence.
"You have previous convictions for assault and the time has come when there must be a custodial sentence," he said.

FYI... breaking news in the David Copperfield false rape case... accuser charged with false rape claim... details on the FWO blog.
FWO
I found it here;
http://news.mensactivism.org/node/14627
I still visit your site ( I love what you told that feminist troll).

"Copperfield's accuser and the other man rented a hotel room, and surveillance images included in the police records showed them kissing and holding each other in the lobby.
The woman later exited the hotel room and told hotel staff the man took advantage of her, the police documents said. She said she was dizzy and couldn't remember what happened, but only awoke to find him on top of her, police said.
But the man also called police, saying she left the room and falsely accused him to the staff because he refused to pay her $2,000 for sex."
OT, but I think very relevant
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/record-numbers-of-women-held-for-violent-crimes-1882111.html
Record numbers of women are being arrested for violent crimes, it was revealed today.
Annual criminal justice statistics showed 88,139 women were arrested for violent offences in a single year - or nearly 250 every day.
That is an increase of nearly 1,000 on a year earlier. At the same time the number of men arrested for violent crimes fell by 10,000.
The rise in arrests means that for the second consecutive year women were more likely to be held for crimes of violence than for any other offence.
etc
false rape accussers should be charged with attempted murder. You see when you ratchet up RAPE HYSTERIA...to a degree where there is a Klan type mentality to kill Rapist....Then you go and claim an innocent man or boy Raped you.
This dynamic should be classified as attempted murder..and it is a serious perversion of the American justice system to not charge false Rape accussers with anything at all!!
But you see, there are now so many false rape accusations that a society that has been kept in the dark for so long; has no choice but to see it, when it is now being shoved in its face, over, and over, and over, and over again. Theres a problem folks..and the perverts in our current justice departments cannot seem to fix it, because it is in fact they who have fostered the false rape culture!!
The investigation of Copperfield became public in October 2007 when FBI agents raided a warehouse owned by Copperfield in Las Vegas, Nevada. Investigators hauled away a computer hard drive and a memory chip from a digital camera system, as well as $2 million in cash that was inside a safe, sources close to the probe said................
******
The US Fed prosecutors had no jurisdiction in this case and did not have the authority to investigate Copperfield or get a search warrant and confiscate his personal property and money. The false rape allegations were about something that the liar claimed occurred in the Bahamas.This is as crazy as trying to prosecute men who have sex in other countries with females who may be underage depending on which State the man is from and some States have high ages of consent at 18.
