Beautiful 17-Year-Old Model Killed By Jealous Millionaire Boyfriend Over Facebook Status And Alleged Cheating


Emily Longley

Beautiful 17-year-old model, Emily Longley of England, was strangled to death in the bed of her millionaire boyfriend, Elliot Turner, 20. He became jealous and believed she was seeing other men behind his back, leading to a drunken fight that ended in her tragic death. His parents, Anita and Leigh Turner, a wealthy jeweler, stand accused of helping their son clean up the crime scene and dispose of evidence.

Elliot was said to have threatened Emily that he would bludgeon her to death with a hammer. He told the blonde beauty, "I will go to prison for it and still be a millionaire when I come out." He seems obsessed with money, which has been the downfall of many. It gives some a false sense of security, making them believe they can do anything they please, no matter how devastating it is to others' lives.


Emily Longley

This case also exhibits the dangers of giving your children everything they want in life and not teaching them responsibility and discipline. It can mean terrible situations arising when someone does not do as they say, after years of privilege and getting their own way.

More Evidence Piling Up Against George Zimmerman In The Murder Of Trayvon Martin

Trayvon Martin and girlfriend

Newly released items continue to testify against George Zimmerman, the 28-year-old neighborhood watch captain that murdered unarmed 17-year-old, Trayvon Martin. Zimmerman, who was violating neighborhood watch rules by patrolling his community with a gun and stalking a perceived threat, a defenseless boy with Skittles candy and Arizona ice tea, declined emergency services' offer of an ambulance to take him to the hospital if he felt unwell.

However, to hear Zimmerman tell it now, via his family and representatives, Martin nearly beat him to death by repeatedly bashing his head against the concrete and breaking his nose. Most people with such alleged injuries would immediately go to the hospital (not to mention have blood on their clothes). Yet, emergency services' tapes of the night in question, reveals Zimmerman declined an ambulance and based on his appearance, had no blood on his shirt. When one Googles pictures of broken noses, then looks at footage of Zimmerman on the night in question, one wonders why he looks nothing like others with the same alleged injury.

Show of hands, if someone allegedly beat you so badly you feared for your life, as they'd broken your nose and split the back of your head open with repeated blows against the concrete, would you not want to go to the hospital to check for potentially fatal internal bleeding/hemorrhaging, after such life threatening injuries. Would you not want to have your nose tended to in order to prevent it healing in a visibly bad way. More importantly would you not want a brain scan.

Show of hands again, how many of you that are not cops or certified security guards, would patrol the neighborhood with a gun, of all things. I just couldn't fathom doing that. If I saw something odd, like someone trespassing or suspiciously fiddling with a neighbor's lock for too long, I'd call 911, but that's it. You can't brand someone suspicious for walking on a street, as Zimmerman did regarding Martin. That's the purpose of the street - for people to walk on it.

George Zimmerman

Expert analysis also reveals, it is not George Zimmerman crying for help on 911 tapes, as he claimed. Voice analysis comparing Zimmerman's 911 call and that of others residents in the neighborhood who heard the murder, eliminate the killer as the one pleading for assistance. This support's the Martin family's contention it is Trayvon on the tape. One witness stated she heard a "boy" crying for help before the gunshot rang out.

Zimmerman is the aggressor and stalker in this matter, who was armed with a loaded gun. Martin was the unarmed victim of stalking. Why would someone with a loaded gun be screaming for help against a teenager with no weapon. Does that make sense to you. Think about that. Furthermore, anyone who attacks a cop, as Zimmerman did a few years ago, is either completely reckless or not playing with a full deck., That is an individual looking for trouble anywhere they can find it.
