My view is that this was a professional hit carried out with experience, determination and timing.

Didn't she reject a rich Russian's advances on the island of Malta with a very public humiliating put down? That is my fav. reason.

Barry George is expected to sue for at least £500,000 compensation. Not bad going for doing 7 years inside IMO, especially if you have an IQ of 75 (looking at no-one here in particular )

Do we have anyone here with an IQ as high as 75?

I think DimPrawn said he had £500,000 stashed away, so his IQ could be 75

Another stark reminder for those who still favour the return of the death penalty.

The British government faces a potential diplomatic row with Antigua over the shooting of the honeymoon couple Catherine and Benjamin Mullany after demanding that anyone convicted of the crime will not face the death penalty.

The Foreign Office attempted to make such a pledge a condition of allowing Scotland Yard detectives to fly out to help in the investigation.

One senior Antiguan source said British officials initially demanded a signed guarantee from the country’s Prime Minister, Baldwin Spencer.

The Antiguan interior minister told the Foreign Office that the government could not make any such pledge as the death penalty was decided by the Caribbean island’s judiciary, which is technically independent.

The British demand to its former colony is understood to have annoyed Antigua’s leadership. Eight years ago, the two countries clashed diplomatically with its former colony after the UK tried to stop the execution of Steadroy McDougal for the murder of a Scottish woman and her boyfriend.



Would you still say that if that had been your son or daughter killed? or is your aversion to the death sentence based on religious grounds or a feeling that we could never be 100% certain?
