Title: Derby Fire death sentence
Post by: simondjuk on April 04, 2013, 10:07:39 PM

Long enough?

IMO, no-where near. 

6 innocent children killed and one life sentence.  It should be one life sentence per child, so he should die in prison.

Yes it was manslaughter but its not long enough. 

I really wish the judges would grow some balls and hand out sentences that fit the crime.

The Coroners and Justice Act 2009 applies, they can't just 'grow some' as you put it.

I'm sure they will Asatian it seems other ibnmates don't take to anyone who harm children.
BBC ran a Panarama special either Monday ot Tuesday night 10.30pm on this family - we missed it but did anyone else watch it?
I would love to watch it as we did see some of the end and it looked to be interesting -

Yes JR ours irritates me though as it keeps stopping to load up (a bit like utube sometimes does) so it takes longer may still give it a look though - just hoped it would be shown again I think Sky are putting something out as well but we only have freeview so that's out  :(

Unless Mick Philpott is awarded a private cell 24/7 he is going to have a few interesting years in front of him. Nobody likes a child killer full stop. He'll get the treatment he deserves hopefully. B@stard that he is.
He'll need all the luck he can get IMHO
