VIC:Mum's plea for anti-violence message

The mother of a teenager stabbed to death outside a Melbourne house party has urged
the judge sentencing her son's killer to send a strong anti-violence message to the community.

19-year-old DYLAN CASEY died after being stabbed in the chest and abdomen by 24-year-old
SCOTT ROY JEWELL outside an 18th birthday party for JEWELL's sister in suburban Edithvale
in January last year.

The Victorian Supreme Court's heard the stabbing arose from a scuffle that began after
JEWELL and his father went to find out who damaged a picket fence.

JEWELL has pleaded guilty to defensive homicide and will be sentenced at a date to be fixed.
