Catawba teen's murderer sentenced
December 6, 2011
ByNASH DUNN
::snipping2::
The man who killed a 19-year-old Catawba teenager in 2007 will spend at least 12 years in prison.
John Lee Mitchell pleaded guilty to second-degree murder in the April 2007 death of Travis Baker and two other charges on Tuesday in Catawba County court. He will serve a maximum sentence of up to 15 years in prison.
The Travis Baker case, which began as a missing person case in 2007, turned into a homicide investigation after his bullet-riddled skull and other remains were found under a lumber pile off Eulalia Lane near Catawba in June 2009.
Mitchell was arrested following the discovery of Baker’s remains.
Authorities said Mitchell became a suspect when the Catawba teenager went missing in 2007.
The case was set to go to trial in January, but Baker and the court accepted a plea deal Tuesday.
::snipping2::
::snipping2::
Dubs said several witnesses would have testified about Mitchell’s non-violent history and gentle personality, adding that his mother was a lifelong police officer.
::snipping2::
There are many more details in the article about what Mitchell alledges happened the day he killed Travis. I was shocked to read his mother was a lifelong police officer. (warning sarcasm follows) IMO I bet that had nothing to do with the fact he was living it up in Florida for two years. i bet that's why this murderer can now make up some *&%@ story about what happened that day and use it as an excuse to get a lesser sentence.
As has been stated over and over in case after case our justice system is broken.
I do take comfort in knowing that God's justice system will prevail.

Authorities said they don't think Mitchell acted alone and that there are likely other suspects involved with Baker's murder.
So, were other arrests ever made?

Was this just a lousy investigation made even worse by time passage? And twelve years (or one or two more) for the life of a young man?
It seems to me I've been seeing heavier sentences given for drug dealing. JMHO

Man pleads guilty in Travis Baker's 2007 murder
Quote
Mitchell’s brother, Dan, contacted the sheriff’s office and said he had spoken with Mitchell on the phone, McGinnis said. Mitchell told his brother he had shot and killed some people in Catawba County, rented a U-Haul and buried them on someone else’s property.
McGinnis said the gunshot wounds were to the back of the head, and the medical examiner later confirmed they were Baker’s remains.
This was no act of self-defense. Travis was executed.

I couldn't agree with you more on this and the execution. One thing I'd like to point out though is the prosecutor's office and attorney Lisa Dubs are the same ones that you saw in Zahra's case. JMHO a huge miscarriage of justice in both cases.
