That's bad, Brian deserves some justice, after all, he was the initial driving force in the formation of the Greatest Rock and Roll Band in the World.
No, they have never been supportive of Brian in any way, quite the opposite, IMHOQuote

I feel that Brian will only get justice if Mick and Keith get behind the cause. Mick and Keith are the only individuals who can sway public opinion on this and force the case to proceed swiftly. But they have never supported the reopening of the case.

"A few weeks after Brian Jones death, on July 26, 1969, Joan Fitzsimons was the victim of a vicious assault near Chichester which left her in a coma with a fractured skull and blinded for life. Her boyfriend, Jordanian Michael Ziyadeh, pleaded guilty to attempted murder and spent four years in Broadmoor Prison before being deported. Despite his guilty plea, Ziyadeh always claimed he did not carry out the attack. The police case against him concluded, "The motive for this is a mystery"
However Fitzsimmons was the some-time mistress of Frank Thorogood and worked for her family's taxi firm in Chichester, only about 40 miles from Cotchford Farm. She was also a friend of Suki Poitier, a former girlfriend of Brian Jones. In fact in the days following Brian Jones death, both Poitier and Fitzsimmons stayed at Cotchford Farm.
Joan Fitzsimmons died in 2002 and since then certain information has become available under the freedom of information act. One of these pieces of information was a statement made to police by her brother claiming she was scared of Frank Thorogood. Irene Russell, Joan Fitzsimmons mother even made a statement to police stating she was at Cotchford Farm the night of Brian's death and that Frank Thorogood had been making her life awkward."

With information like this article, it's not a wonder that conspiracy theories abound in the Brian jones case, especially if this is true.

Where is this from? I've seen the police reports on the case. "Mike" Ziyadeh had marks on his body from the assault and was seen by numerous eye-witnesses as it happened during the day. He has also admitted carrying out the crime as of just a few years ago. Thorogood had a pretty good alibi as to his whereabouts the night of the attack. Also, people who knew Fitzimmons said in their statements to the police that she was afraid of Zihadeh and did not trust him. He was known to have an extremely short temper.

Thanks for the post. Still a mystery....
It's a mystery because we actually don't know what happend that night at Cotchford and the day after. The case isn't solved if Brian was murdered and if he wasn't murdered then what made him drown in the pool? What happend to his stuff that wasn't burned in the bon-fire?Quote

Its not a mystery. the case was solved about 40 years ago. You could make any murder look suspicious if you wanted to, which is what the tabloids do.
Why do people fall for this stuff over and over again.

Could have the Stones founder had an ordinary end, by that I mean cristal clear. I was 15 at that time. The papers and rock magasines talked about drugs and swimming pool. And that was all. Murder "surfaced" years later to the surprise of a lot of people, I guess... By the way, I am sure you pretty well know who killed JFK..

"And by the way, yes I am positve that Oswald killed JFK alone. Its an open and shut case, that alot of people have many money off of spreading rumors."
I was going to say the same thing. I just figured this will turn into a JFK conspiracy debate. I'm a big buff on the JFK assassination and have come to the conclusion that Oswald did it alone as well.

Have you both just read the Bugliosi book? Funny, could hardly find anyone who thought it wasn't a conspiracy until that was published. That book seems to have changed a lot of people's minds...

I already believed Oswald did it alone, but I did read Bugliosi's book and it made it even more clear. Its really a no brainer.
There is also a website that proves as clearly as anything else that Oswald did it alone. Its called Mcadmams JFK.
