Lesbian and Killers: Seen Too Many Movies


Lesbian and Killers, originally uploaded by ddbsweasel.

They killed a girl because she was 'annoying them.' They kissed over the dead girl's body. They showed no remorse for their activity. They have a minimum of 24 years jail to consider their crime.
So WA laws work, why do 99% of rapes go unpunished in WA?

Lesbian killers of Stacey Mitchell jailed for life
By Nicolas Perpitch
TWO young women who brutally killed a teenage girl and dumped her body in a wheelie bin have each been handed a strict security life sentence, with a minimum of 24 years in jail.

The pair bludgeoned 16-year-old Stacey Mitchell with a concrete block, strangled her with a chain and then videoed her blood-splattered bedroom and semi-naked body.

Jessica Ellen Stasinowsky, 21, and her girlfriend Valerie Paige Parashumti, 19, were today sentenced in the West Australian Supreme Court today after pleading guilty to Stacey's wilful murder at a Perth house in December 2006.

Justice Peter Blaxell said: "You have each had more than a year in custody to reflect upon the evilness of your crime, yet you still lack remorse and obviously place no value on the sanctity of human life.

"There is also the added problem that you each enjoy being sexually aroused by the infliction of violence."

During sentencing submissions in January, prosecutor David Dempster told the court Parashumti and Stasinowsky had killed Stacey, who they had known for three days, because she had been annoying them.

Parashumti's lawyer, David Edwardson, QC, said his client was partly motivated by a desire to dispel Stasinowsky's jealousy about Stacey, who had walked around the house dressed only in a bikini.

The girls attacked Stacey at their home after giving her alcohol containing a sleeping pill.

Parashumti repeatedly bashed Stacey on the head with a concrete block as the teenager tried to flee.

Because Stacey was taking a long time to die, Stasinowksy then wrapped a belt chain around her neck. After she died, the pair kissed each other over the body.

They then dumped Stacey's body head first in a wheelie bin behind the house, where it was found by police several days later.

Another occupant of the shared house, 27-year-old David Haynes, was sentenced to two years jail last year after pleading guilty to being an accessary after the fact to the murder. He was released on parole on February 15.

Sadistic killer lesbians shared blood lust
By Todd Cardy
THEY drugged, bludgeoned and strangled their 16-year-old victim to death then they knelt over her lifeless, bloody body to kiss before dumping her in a wheelie bin.

The horrific murder of Stacey Mitchell has attracted national headlines but questions remain as to why her roommates of only four days, Valerie Page Parashumti and Jessica Ellen Stasinowsky, violently attacked and killed the former Leeming High schoolgirl.

Supreme Court justice Peter Blaxell this week will decide how long Parashumti, 19, and Stasinowsky, 21, will spend in jail before they are eligible for parole. The minimum is 15 years.

Stasinowsky and Parashumti, who had been together just a month, have offered no explanation or motive for the killing other than that Stacey "annoyed'' them.

One theory put to the court was that the couple appeared obsessed with proving their love for each other.

Both pleaded guilty last November to one count each of wilful murder but they still do not seem to understand the gravity of their crime.

Court hearings have been punctuated with laughter, smirking and smiling.

Even during sentencing submissions in January, the couple was told twice by Justice Blaxell to stop their light-hearted behaviour as the graphic details of the crime were read.

Stacey was killed in the early hours of Monday, December 18, 2006, at the Lathlain house she shared with Parashumti and Stasinowsky after running away from home 11 days earlier.

She moved in during the evening on Thursday, December 14, but told her parents the day before she was killed that she wanted to return home.

Police found her body four days later, upside down, in a wheelie bin in a shed at the back of the house.

Prosecutor Dave Dempster described the killing as a sustained attack that lasted at least half an hour. He has demanded strict-security imprisonment - a non-parole period of at least 20 to 30 years.

"It appears that the deceased was killed simply because she was found to be annoying to the offenders,'' Mr Dempster said.

A fourth housemate, David Ross John Haynes, 27, has been jailed for two years for being an accessory after the fact to the murder, which took place at his father's house.

The court heard the attack started in the kitchen after the trio had been drinking alcohol and Stacey had been slipped a Stilnox sleeping tablet.

Mr Dempster said Parashumti started raining blows on Stacey while Bach's St John's Passion was playing throughout the house.

During the attack Parashumti complained Stacey was taking too long to die so she continued to beat her while Stasinowsky wrapped a belt chain around her neck.

The women monitored her pulse after she fell unconscious and then kissed each other over the body once she died.

Then they video-taped the blood-drenched crime scene on a mobile phone, on which they are heard mocking Stacey's English accent.

"It ends with Parashumti saying, 'I tell you man, when I was beating the f..k out of her with a rock,' and then there's laughter from Stasinowsky,'' Mr Dempster told the court.'

Neither of the two killers had serious criminal records and both were young women -- Parashumti was 18 and Stasinowsky was 19 at the time of the murder.

Parashumti's lawyer, David Edwardson, QC, said his client had never had a serious relationship before meeting Stasinowsky.

Mr Edwardson said Parashumti had a violent family life and had also been associated with the vampire subculture since the age of 10 when she started experimenting with drinking blood. At first from her own cuts then later that of others.

He said initially Parashumti liked Stacey but the friendship quickly became strained when Stacey talked about committing suicide.

"Anyone who kills themselves obviously they don't appreciate their own lives (sic)," the court heard Parashumti told her lawyer.

"I wish I had a f..cking perfect world''.

Stasinowsky too had a troubled adolescence before leaving home at 16.

As an only child of a single working mother, the court heard she felt extreme loneliness and was "emotionally barren''.

Stasinowsky's lawyer Andree Horrigan said her client believed the relationship with Parashumti was "strong and solid'.

"There was always this basis that she and Ms Parashumti were a unit and were conjoined essentially,'' she said.

"They were a partnership.''

By all accounts, Stacey was a typical teen - outgoing, fun-loving and full of youthful spirit.
Her MySpace website was decorated with bright pink wall-paper of Playboy bunnies.

"My name is stacey, Im english, I love me alochol, i'm a party gurl, music is me life, i cant live with out my friends, im a very loud person, i talk 24/7, im a very down to earth person if you get to know me ...xxx,(sic)'' the website said.

Stasinowsky and Parashumti's lawyers have both asked the judge to consider their young ages and early guilty pleas in sentencing.

Stacey Mitchell's family devastated at loss
By Todd Cardy
THE grief-stricken family of murdered teenager Stacey Mitchell have expressed the devastation of their loss.

Outside court today police read a prepared statement from Andy and Sophie Mitchell but the couple did not speak to the waiting media.

“We would like to say that we are still devastated over Stacey’s brutal murder,” the statement said.

“We still can’t believe that she has gone and the violent way in which her life ended, though we have to accept the sentence the two perpetrators have been given, no amount of time would ever be enough.

“Stacey was a beautiful 16-year-old girl who was full of life, caring and loving, the life and soul of our house. She will never fulfil any of her ambitions or dreams.

“Though we are glad that this part of the ordeal is over, the pain of losing Stacey will live with us forever.

“We would like to thank our family, friends and workmates for their support and the WA police for the professional manner in which they have dealt with this horrendous crime.

“We do not wish to make any further comments at this time and request that the media and the public respect our privacy.
