so ian huntley [the soham murderer] has had his throat slashed in prison....

[stokemaveric]

give that inmate a knighthood......

[jno]

Carr lied about Huntley's whereabouts, as I recall (and went to jail for it). She played no part in the murders, and it's wrong to say she's 'just as bad'.

[stokemaveric]

she was guilty of assisting an offender trying to cover up his horrendous crime wherever she is and under whatever guise she is living i hope that she gets her comeuppance as well.....

[jno]

You're sure she knew about his crime? The jury believed otherwise, having heard the case and seen her, but you know better?

She's had her comeuppance. She went to jail.

[DrFilth]

Carr was convicted of conspiring to pervert the course of justice, but was freed in May 2004 after serving half of her three-and-a-half year sentence.
Before her release, she admitted 20 benefit fraud and deception charges, which could have carried a ten-year jail term.
But a judge decided it was in the "public interest" that she should be freed under a three-year community rehabilitation order, which has now been completed.
She was moved to a secret location, provided with a job and given full police protection

she had been a witness for him before on some other charges and helped him get of .
if she had not lied he would not of got the job he had and two young girls may still be alive.

Correct Drfilth.

[jno]

yeah, yeah, and if his mother had had an abortion he woudn't have been born; if the police had passed on information about previous allegations against him he wouldn't have got the job (you want them beaten up too?)... Ian Huntley committed the murders, nobody else.

[DrFilth]

jno no need to be nasty just pointing out that she covered for him before this case

[dh001]

The public serice are full of cretins like you JNO, and that is why crimes like this were avoidable.

[dh001]

**service

[jno]

presumably these cons who have a sense of right and wrong are all in prison by mistake... thanks for the namecalling, dh, good to see you fall instantly back on insults when people fail to kiss your pretty posterior. And would you care to answer my question about whether you want police beaten up because they also failed to pass on information that would have stopped Huntley getting the job?

[dh001]

JNO, i am highly critical of the police with regard to lack of information sharing. But its because of left wing do-gooder drama queen cretins like you that this was opposed and serious crime increased. Lord Bichard made his recommondations but they quickly fissled outt,

I cannot agree with the statement that the judicial system let the people down. Huntley was rightly convicted and given the maximum sentence prescribed by law, viz life imprisonment without any realistic hope of release on licence. The only further sanction would have been capital punishment (to which in principle I have no moral objection). However that is no longer an available option, and I prefer to think that we are a law-abiding society, rather than a lynch mob.

[ELVIS68]

Huntleys dad or stepdad also new of his past crimes yet told him what to say in his interviews for getting the job as a school caretaker, he must shoulder some of the blame too.

As for giving the chap who slashed his throat a knighthood....nah

yet it is fine and dandy for folk in gaol to slash anyone that takes their fancy?

[dh001]

TCL, "yet it is fine and dandy for folk in gaol to slash anyone that takes their fancy"

Is it ?

[Quinlad]

Any suggestion that Maxine Carr played any part in the murders is utterly wrong and - given the amount of coverage the case had - pretty thick. You MUST have read enough about it to know that?

By the time she knew anything about the crime, the girls were already dead. She then committed a different criminal offence and went to prison for it.

The people who think of her as some sort of Myra Hindley figure, just because it was a high profile case are stupid. They vilify her and want her dead, even though there are thousands of women in the UK who have committed far worse crimes who they don't give a second's thought to.

Why do they single her out? Because they're so brainless, they gobble up the media hysteria like a 3-year-old eating nutella with a wooden spoon and then defecate it out as fully formed 'opinions'.

Like I say - thick.

[DrFilth]

quinlad who has said they want her dead ?

did the thick ones get there info from the bbc ?
