After Abu Hamza getting off with a slap of the wrists, we now have this .

Here are a few quotes if nobody fancies reading through the whole of it:-


'Lumsden attacked his wife on the night of 16 March 2005, five days after she had told him she was leaving him for Roger Flint.

He plunged a 12cm kitchen knife into his wife's back and continued to stab her repeatedly in the face and neck.

Christopher Lumsden was jailed for five years at Manchester Crown Court after admitting manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility.

The judge said Lumsden would serve at least half the sentence.

The lawyer has already served 11 months on remand so he will be set for release in 19 months.'

Sentencing Lumsden, the judge said the was satisfied that Lumsden's "depressive condition" played a significant part in the killing.

"Had it not been for that, you would not have snapped as you did," he said. '



Sorry, manslaughter or not, you deserve a damn sight more than 2 1/2 years in prison for butchering someobody. Absolutely ******* ridiculous! :rolleyes: :mad:

But he didn't murder anyone.

If he didn't plan to kill his wife, then why did he keep the kitchen knife in a bedside cabinet? Luckily it just happened to be there when he sliced and diced his wife in their bedroom.

It all sounds very convenient to me.
