What Would You Do With This Guy If The Decision Was Yours To Make?

Thank you, Bobbi. I'm a happy soul but there are strange things I cannot bear....and as an adult I now realise why.
But hey....I'm a lot luckier than some who landed at the hands of perverts....x

[ladybirder]

Well it seems we are mostly all of one mind. I hope we get more of this story. They certainly can't let him mix with others, can you imagine the explosion if they did and he killed again. I wonder what sort of upbringing he had that brought him to where he is now.

[Bobbisox1]

Gness I get that’s what makes you you? Like a soft centred sweet because you’ve had to be xxxx

[Kardashev]

It just doesn't add up sure they are punishing him for errors of the prisons in handling nonce prisoners.
They should give him that place they put the Lockerbie bomber in.

[gness]

But don’t forget the hard outside, Bobbi. ;-)

[davebro]

I don't get it - folks on here wish all kinds of retribution in prison to criminals who commit vile crimes then when someone does it the avenger gets slated! What DO you want?

[andres]

I would have done something 40 plus years ago. He should have been given a lethal injection not incarcerated for all these years. What justice is there in putting a person in solitary confinement and driving them insane ? Torture is evil .

[Bobbisox1]

I can’t imagine it Gness

[ladybirder]

I don't want him to be allowed a poor Budgie in his cell. Birds shouldn't have to do bird.

[sandyRoe]

Give him a cell on ground level with a window to admit natural light. He should also have access to books and a radio.
Whatever he's done being buried alive is too harsh a punishment.

[davebro]

I was gonna ask this - I'm not allowed to have pets in my flat except fish or cage birds. Is it cruel to keep a caged bird? Presumably budgies & parrots etc. bred in captivity know no other life & would die if released in Britain. I agree they should be bred wild & live in their natural habitat - but what if they aren't?

[ladybirder]

The least I would do for it is give it its freedom inside my home. But I would have a caged bird.

[andy-hughes]

Like several others, I regard the restriction of access to books and television to be inhumane.

Unlike others, I cannot agree that because he murdered convicted criminals, he should in some way be seen as fit, either for release, or for assocation - those decisions are made by people with far more knowledge and experience than any of us.

[gness]

Expand on experience, Andy.

[andy-hughes]

gness - // Expand on experience, Andy. //

I use the word 'experience' in my post to indicate the experience that experts have in dealing with individuals like this.

Their experience is going to be accademic, rather than personal - since I would suggest that personal experience would render the objectivity needed to work in this area redundant.

[pastafreak]

I'm not sure anyone here sees him as 'fit'.

[andy-hughes]

pasta - // I'm not sure anyone here sees him as 'fit'. //

Again I use the word in conext - referring to his fitness to be allowed to mix with others.

[gness]

Hmmm. Your way doesn’t seem to be going too well though, Andy.

[andy-hughes]

gness - // Hmmm. Your way doesn’t seem to be going too well though, Andy. //

How so exactly?

Maudsley should never be allowed the opportunist to sweep through prison wreaking his own vengeance.
