I'd like to shake that mans hand

Waste of taxes.
Waste of taxes treating him for his 3 attempted suicides and for the 3 occasions he has been attacked by other inmates, who clearly are not angels as they are in there in the first place.
Waste of taxes keeping him, paying for accomodation, coverage, protection, and food.

I don't think any other prisoner should be commended for having a go and trying to hurt or kill him, who knows why the guy attacked him in the first place, maybe he dropped the soap once too often or not enough... May have had nothing to do with past offences.
Now more taxes will be wasted on a police investigation in the first place, and then criminal prosecution against the attacker, and so on. More wasted on a security review at the prision and god forbide he gets compensation for not being adequately looked after while inside.

One change in the law, and one piece of rope would be all the taxes I would have spent on this case, and now he would be consigned to history. Let him have his fair trial, as he had, and afterwards child killers are executed. Job done, no more waste of public funds on a waste of life.

Some will think I am cheaping life, perhaps, but I am certain cutting the tax bill dramatically on those who provide nothing to our society.
 
I dont want Huntley killed in prison. He clearly has a hard time just being there. He's clearly broken shattered and would rather be able to take his life given half a chance. I'd rather he suffered in jail than take the easy way out or someone help him get to that point.
 
The guy that reportedly did it is serving time for rape.... I also like how, in the criminal class, you can be a mass rapist or murderer and you are seen as "better" than anyone that offends against kids...



It was someone I work with that pointed something out to me -

Why is it people will quite gladly form a mob in order to terrorise child abusers and run them out of town but they wont do the same for e.g. drug dealers ??


Dont get me wrong, I am not on the side of these animals (child abusers - vile creatures) but its amazing how the mob rationalise their victimisation and deem it "ok" because they have commited this type of crime but are happy to let other criminals run their "trade" freely....

BTW, I know the answer - fear. Child abusers are an easy target but they are afraid to take on a group of drug dealers for fear of reprisals.... Cowardly if you ask me.
 
These crimes horrify people more than a lot of other crimes so incite much more of a response than other, rationally no worse crimes.

Huntley should be left to rot in jail. The death penalty or suicide or a vigilante attack in prison is just an easy escape for him.

These are exactly the sort of posts I was hoping for when I started the thread, not the cretinous 'You are a moron' posts.
I was after a response after a discussion I had with a group of guys on a job I'm currently working at.
My view was like the above posts, that he should rot in prison and being given the easy way out via suicide or murder should nor be an option.
He should pay for his heinous crime...end of.
However, if I had simply posted this at the beginning I feel I wouldn't have got the same response as has been seen here.
The 3 of the 5 guys I'm working with wanted him dead and sooner the better whereas the other 2 and myself wanted him to suffer as long as possible.
 
Personally, I think blind punishment alone is pointless. IMO, the ideal situation is for him to be fully rehabilitated and then contribute to society again. This may not be possible, however surely it should be the aim? Blind retribution is destructive and helps nobody.

That's not to say he's not dangerous, nor am I underestimating the crime he is guilty of, but his jail sentence should be a safe place - both for the public, keeping him in custody and for Huntley himself. He can't be rehabilitated if he's being beaten everyday.

I'd want no part in any vigilante 'justice'.

There's something deeply disturbing about society being allowed to exact revenge on criminals. The line gets very blurred when society is allowed to kill someone who commits murder...
 
Just got back from the pub....more constructive posts, I like it.
A point that was put forward tonight, whilst enjoying a nice cold Stella, was....What if Jessica and Hollys fathers were allowed in a room alone with this vile animal....would that be acceptable?......
