UK teenagers accused of plotting school massacre

Sep 2, 2009

LONDON (AP) - Two British teenagers went on trial Wednesday for allegedly plotting "the greatest massacre ever," inspired by the Columbine killings in the United States.

Prosecutor Peter Wright told a jury at Manchester Crown Court in northwest England that Matthew Swift, 18, and Ross McKnight, 16, wrote up detailed plans for the massacre, which they called "Project Rainbow."

McKnight wrote in his diary of carrying out the "greatest massacre ever."

"We will walk into school and at the end of it no one will walk out alive," he wrote.

Wright said the two "planned to copy and emulate the actions of Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold," who killed 12 students and a teacher at Columbine High School in Colorado before committing suicide.

Prosecutors say Swift and McKnight planned to bomb a shopping center before killing teachers and students at their school on the 10th anniversary of the April 1999 massacre.

The jury also was told that a safe in Swift's bedroom contained plans of the school and instructions on using acetone peroxide as a detonator. The safe also contained a notebook that contained plans, jottings and an image of Harris and Klebold taken from closed circuit camera footage during the Columbine attack.

Underneath was written: "They say a picture paints a thousand words. This is my favorite picture in the whole world."

The defendants deny the charges.

Just as interesting were comments under this article. A few posted below:


- kill them. those vag brits will let them out in 8 months and they will join the other 40% of their population that is terrorists

- I suppose that it's a moot point that these kids didn't actually do anything. Sure they're sick and need mental help in one form or another, but to say "Kill Them"? Really? Yeah, we'll just have the Thought Police pop by your house and see what kinds of deranged crap you might have considered. Ever thought, "I oughta kill that guy!" in traffic? Oops! Electric Chair! And of course it probably has nothing to do with their parents. When are people gonna wake up an realize that the one of the biggest problems we face in society is the abject failure of parents to live up to the title? Take an interest in what your kids are doing and be involved in their lives! Maybe if you'd explained that A. it's wrong to kill people or obsess about killing people, and B. treat people with respect they wouldn't be little miscreants!


- It's too bad they are British in a British court. If they were Libyan they would only have to serve 8 months for each person they killed.

- I have 2 kids, 17 & 15 and my wife and I have always been part of their lives as parents to a degree we are probably both of our kid's best friends. My two kids have excelled in school, dance, and High School swimming and don't drink, don't have sex, and hate music like Brittany Spears, etc. My wife and I have come to the conclusion that if kids have emotional issues and are out of control, yes, blame the parents. I've learned this through close analysis of the parents and have proven this to be a fact!

The feral youth of England strike again... (A feral organism is one that has escaped from domestication and returned, partly or wholly, to a wild state.) It's the parents stupid...or lack of parents..


- I know, it's Bush's fault!


- Now here's a question. Did Swift or McKnight ever take Ritalin, Prosac, or any of the other mood altering drugs? Harris (of Columbine) was on prozac. His mother being a liberal didn't help either.

- They will be released in a year on "compassionate" grounds. The Lockerbie bomber killed 290 and he got a free pass so what do you need to do in the UK to stay incarcerated? I know, file download.
