    Billy Mankelow murder: Leeds man Richard Danter jailed for life

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-leeds-34016821

    Billy Mankelow, 20, was kicked and stamped on more than 20 times by Richard Danter after the two men met at Leeds' Viaduct Club on 25 April.
    Mr Mankelow, from Tonbridge, Kent, was discovered unconscious under a railway arch in Swinegate. He died in hospital.

    Danter, 31, of Queen's Road, Leeds, pleaded guilty to the murder.

    Leeds Crown Court heard Mr Mankelow had gone to the club after finishing work where he was seen dancing and socialising with Danter.
    They left the club together at about 02:45 BST and headed towards the Dark Arches area of the city, where Danter launched what police have described as a "totally unprovoked attack".

    Danter then went back into the club and told staff members he had just killed someone before attempting to hide Mr Mankelow's body by dragging him further into the arches.
    What a fucking psycho! For those unaware Viaduct is a gay bar and Danter is a convicted sex offender. I used to frequent that area frequently but this story just reminded me psychos could be anywhere

    The same reason he beat down a 20 year old and tossed the body under an archway. He's crazy.

    The self-loathing on this one is strong.

    Doubtful. I suspect hes unhinged sober too. Personally I suspect three scenarios:

    Guy targeted victim and lured him away to kill
    Guy targeted victim and lured him away to possibly rape, struggle ensured and guy lost plot
    Guy fancied victim, lured him away for sex, got rejected, killed victim in anger
