In one, available on platforms such as Spotify and YouTube, TEN appears to reference Jimmy's death with the lyrics: 'Stuck it on a man and watched him melt like Ben and Jerry's. Sharpen up my blade I've got to keep those necessary. Stay alert and kept it ready, any corner could be deadly.'
An HM Prison and Probation Service said: 'We are aware of this content and are investigating it as a priority. We take any material that could glorify violence or distress victims extremely seriously.'
Jimmy's mother Margaret Mizen, awarded an MBE in 2013 for her work with husband Barry helping young people fleeing violence, said: 'If this is true, I am very saddened as it will be a shock to the rest of my family. However Jimmy's legacy of forgiveness, peace and hope, which we share in schools, will not change.'
Tory justice minister Robert Jenrick demanded that 'such material should not be allowed to be shared,' emphasizing the need for stricter regulations against glorifying violence in music.
