Seems wrong.

30 years is a fair prison term, not sure why we should have to pay to give him any more bed and board than is necessary.

Cos I’m sure he’ll be straight into a decent job and renting his own gaff as soon as he’s out.


I’d much rather pay a bit more to have the locked up than a bit less to have him out enjoying the same freedom as the rest of us.

It is wrong.

He should never have been let out till he at least said where the body is.

I do hope he struggles and suffers in the outside world, though I guess he’ll get state protection that will cost as much as it costs keeping him inside.

It does appear wrong, although I'm not sure what is to be gained from detaining him further.

I remember it at the time, as I grew up 2 miles away and had relatives who lived near her.

Her mother has never given up searching for her body.

The sooner the Unlawful Killing (Recovery of Remains) Act gets implemented the better. Leave these animals to rot.

A tad tricky if you're wrongly convicted though.
