Listen mutley.

The family of a child kidnapped by a convicted paedophile on early release has said his sentence is "an insult".
Craig Sweeney, 24, kidnapped a girl, aged three, from her home in Cardiff in January 2006 before attacking her.
He was jailed for life and told he should not be considered for parole for at least five years.
There you have it. Convicted and released in five minutes, only to strike again.
Life should equal life. The only way out is in a coffin.
To cut costs, house the prisons offshore in places like south america (or anywhere with dubious human rights records).Comment

Yeah lifers not let out on licence then?
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/5077986.stm
A total of 53 people sentenced to life have been released on licence from jail in the past six years, ministers said.
Shadow home secretary David Davis said it was "absolutely disgraceful" that the lifers, including rapists and murderers, had been released.
The news comes amid a row over sentencing after paedophile Craig Sweeney was given a life sentence which could see him serve just five years.
You really do talk total tulipe dog breath.Comment

Let's remember the woolies got rid of the death sentence
on the promise that 'life' would be life.Why not?Comment

Life means life,
If you are on a life sentance they can put you back inside if you don't pay a speeding ticket. So it is possible (but extremely unlikely) that he will get out in 2 years, give it 2 months and he'll be back inside for a minor violation of his parole and stuck there for another 10. I would say don't worry bout it.Comment

You're missing the point. He was inside for child-abuse offences, was released early*, and then sexually assaulted another child.
I presume you don't have any children....

Which means the pinky liberal parole board ****ed up and he wasn't supervised correctly by his incompetant parole officer. Also bear in mind he wasn't on a Life sentance so he may have made some minor infractions which the parole officer ignored, whereas had he been on a life sentance he would have been slammed back inside straight away.
I'm not saying I agree with him being released early, only that once you are given life it is very easy to throw you back into the slammer once you get out (if ever).
And just for the record i have a child and if anybody did something like that to him the local pig farm would be getting an extra feed delivery.....Comment
