[wolf63]

I thought that this was a, twisted, revenge attack but this news story is sad. To use acid in any attack is evil - to it to attack a child is beyond .

... beyond cruel ...

[Eleena]

As the years go by, let him contemplate what he's done, as his poor son who hadn't the means to defend himself wears what this monster did for the rest of his life.

[LadyCG]

Hopefully one or two fellow inmates will show him the error of his ways.

[waterboatman]

I'm sure they will. he deserves everything he gets. In fact, in my opinion, all of them should never be released. How low can anyone get, to attack a three year old child. They are the scum of the earth.

[LadyCG]

Even if his physical scars heal, he will be emotionally scarred for life. The evil of man!

[waterboatman]

Sadly the wee lad will remember the horror for the rest of his life, every time ho looks in a mirror.

[Gromit]

I have not commented on the other threads because I suspected we were not getting the full story.
Are we to assume the par3nts were estranged, and attacking his own child was revenge on the mother.

Deportation back to Poland (I assume from their names that they are Polish) once the sentences are served would be in order. We don’t want dangerous people like these back into society.

Terribly sad, unbelievably cruel

[Spicerack]

Steady on, gromit. You'll have the 'right-on' brigade after you.
Anyway, they haven't announced his name. It could be Clive Ponsoby-Smythe, donchaknow.

Gromit,

\\Deportation back to Poland (I assume from their names that they are Polish) once the sentences are served would be in order. We don’t want dangerous people like these back into society.//

3 Slovak's and an Afghan, but yes, deportation.

[vetuste_ennemi]

That's a Yes, then?

Or is ir a No?

So many questions, so little time.

[Gromit]

Sounded eastern European. And an Afghan.
As an host country, we should withdraw our invitation to live here. Grown men attacking a three year old is barbaric and unacceptable.

[Spicerack]

Rather brown Slovakians, webbo.
Not used to our blazing sunshine, I suppose.

[webbo3]

I agree.

I wasn't being rude tho gromit.

[webbo3]

It odd a bit odd that spicerack.!

[ToraToraTora]

"steady on, gromit. You'll have the 'right-on' brigade after you. " - he is the right on brigade!

[gulliver1]

Have a day off,

[naomi24]

Hold up. Rewind:

//It is now thought the target of the attack might have been the boy’s mother….Afghan mother of acid attack boy, 3, 'was tracked down by her violent asylum seeker husband after she appeared in newspaper without her veil'//

Who’d a thought?

[Gromit]

The plot thickens.

[naomi24]

The plot isn't thickening. The mist is clearing.
