Boy, 15, accused of murdering Harvey Willgoose at school tells jury being bullied means he can 'get angry quickly' and 'can't control it'
A teenager accused of murdering a fellow pupil in school has told a jury he was so badly bullied he developed anger issues 'I can't control'. The 15-year-old, who cannot be named for legal reasons, stabbed Harvey Willgoose, also 15, in the schoolyard at All Saints Catholic High School in Sheffield on February 3. He has pleaded guilty to Harvey's manslaughter by reason of loss of control, but is facing trial at Sheffield Crown Court accused of murder. Giving evidence today, the boy told the jury that he was bullied over a medical issue at both primary school and secondary school, as well as experiencing racial abuse. When he was at secondary school, the boy said he was once beaten up so badly by another pupil that he had to go to hospital to receive treatment for an eye injury. He claimed that the bullying left him struggling to sleep and dreading going to school. Gul Nawaz Hussain KC, representing the boy, asked him: 'You have told members of the jury about the bullying that's taking place at school - how do you think it has affected you?' The boy replied: 'It makes me not confident, I'm upset all the time.' He told the court that it also affected his ability to control his anger, saying: 'I can get angry quickly, I get upset quickly - I can't control it.' The defendant described how the bullying had moved to social media after he began attending All Saints Catholic High School - where he was targeted by both other pupils and strangers. 'Let's say if I had an argument with someone at school, they would get their brother or cousin to message me and threaten me,' he said. Asked what the worst threat he received was, the boy replied: 'The worst threat I got was someone saying to me 'I will stab you up'.' Mr Hussain asked: 'Did a time come when you started to believe these threats?' 'Yeah,' the boy replied. Mr Hussain said: 'How did that make you feel?' 'Scared,' the boy responded. The jury previously heard that Harvey and the accused became embroiled in a social media dispute on the weekend before the attack, relating to a row between pupils including the defendant on January 29. On that occasion, he insisted he saw another boy in possession of a knife and the school was put into lockdown. The police were called but no blade was found. The defendant was said to be 'scared of going to school' because of the lockdown. Harvey was not in school that day, but had expressed support on social media for a pupil with whom the defendant had a disagreement. The trial was previously shown shocking CCTV of the fatal attack on Harvey, which saw the two boys squaring up over the school lunchbreak, before the defendant produced a knife and lunged at him, twice. Harvey collapsed 49 seconds later. The defendant has admitted manslaughter and possession of a knife on school premises, but he denies murder. Mr Hussain previously indicated to the jury that the defendant suffered a loss of control due to his history of being bullied, saying: '[The defendant] accepts what he did that day. 'That is why he's pleaded guilty to manslaughter. [He] did not set out to kill or seriously hurt anyone. 'The defence say [his] actions that day were the end result of a long period of bullying, poor treatment and violence – things that built one upon another until he lost control and did tragically what we've all seen.' The trial continues.

Justin Bieber Says ‘I Know I'm Broken,' Slams ‘Concern' Over His Behavior After Father's Day Post
Justin Bieber got candid about healing in his latest in a string of Instagram posts. 'People keep telling me to heal,' Justin, 31, wrote in a cryptic message shared via the social media platform on Monday, June 16. 'Don't you think if I could have fixed myself, I would have already? I know I'm broken. I know I have anger issues.' The 'Baby' singer continued, 'I tried to do the work my whole life to be like the people who told me I needed to be fixed like them. And it just keeps making me more tired and more angry.' Justin added that the harder he tries 'to grow,' the 'more focused on myself I am.' Justin Bieber Opens Up About His 'Anger Issues,' Declares 'I Wanna Grow' in Candid Post 'Jesus is the only person who keeps me wanting to make my life about others,' he concluded. 'Because honestly, I'm exhausted with talking about myself lately, aren't you?' Justin also shared the post via his Instagram Stories. Hours prior to sharing the message, Justin took to his Stories to tell fans, 'Quit asking me if I'm OK. Quit asking me how I'm doing. I don't do that to you. Because I know how life is for all of us. It's hard.' He continued, 'Let's encourage our people not [to] project our insecurities onto one another. Your concern doesn't come off as care, it's just oppressive, weirdo.' Along with the message, Justin reposted a set of screenshots depicting a text exchange with an unnamed person. In one text, the musician seemingly told the other person that he would 'never suppress my emotions for someone,' and if the person didn't like 'my anger, you don't like me.' 'Asking a traumatized person not to be traumatized is simply mean,' he added, later telling the person, 'I enjoyed our short-lived relationship.' The alleged former friend responded to Justin, 'I'm not used to someone lashing out at me. It's not that I don't see and feel your anger.' Justin fired back, 'This friendship is officially over. I will never accept a man calling my anger lashing out. … I wasn't kidding when I told u [sic] I didn't need u [sic] as a friend. I have good friends … who will respect these boundaries.' Us Weekly reached out to a rep for Justin for comment regarding the texts. The post, as well as several others that Justin shared on Sunday, June 15, prompted a wave of concern from fans. 'Someone please intervene and get this dude some help before it's too late,' one fan commented, while another user added, 'You cannot have justifiable angry outbursts due to trauma, it doesn't work that way.' Justin Bieber Says He's 'Been Drowning Feeling Unsafe' in Emotional Instagram Post Among the other posts that Justin shared were photos of the gifts he received for Father's Day, photos of his son, Jack Blues, whom he shares with wife Hailey Bieber, and selfies, many of which were captioned with a middle finger emoji. On one of his posts, Justin wrote, 'I'm a dad that's not to be f***ed with.' Earlier this month, Justin responded to a May 21 meme featuring a screenshot of text messages from someone's grandfather. The messages read, 'I am worried about Justin Bieber. There is so much heartbreak in Justin's life.' Justin commented, 'Worry about yourself gramps.'
