This is what you get, when you don't have the death penalty.

From what I’ve read enhanced means works to earn money that can then be spent on stuff like Xbox.

As long as we can be sure this evil bastard never leaves prison until he is dead (which is his current sentence), then I really don’t care what methods are used to contain him, nice or nasty.

hes already working if he’s enhanced! He will have a regular prison job.

keeps him busy and staff and everyone around him safer

why are people choosing to not understand this?

also, the Xbox will be primitive! Not your modern day style and certainly no internet connection….and only very 15 games and under

all this kept him on bread and water and work him til he drops!?? Nah….im not up for that! Prisons are regulated and independent monitors regular visit and speak to prisoners about their treatment.

Good point.

Personally I like to drop in a few questions that will never get answered as a sort of drawing a line for the less dim.

Prankster’s back! Best ignored.

So who decides who is a criminal ?

What would you say to victims of miscarriages of justice ?

Are you looking forward to the next year at school ?

Criminals should not have human rights, as they have no respect for the human rights of the victims of their crimes.

They aren't separate categories.

Firstly, he will be working for his spending money and earning his privileges. Why don't people understand that?

Secondly, we do not live in a regime that condones torture. That is something you should be deeply thankful for, not want to change.

I don't think many people understand the aims and ethos of British prisons. Some people on here should try looking into it a bit more. Being in prison is the punishment. Beyond that, people are entitled to their human rights.

This includes the right to freedom of religion and freedom from torture, the right to work, the right to education and the right to healthcare.

I would be interested to know exactly which human rights posters think should be denied to UK citizens, bearing in mind that if you are also a UK citizen you would also lose that right

You are: (a) talking bollocks and (b) an idiot for reading clickbait shit from the Daily Mail.

HTH.

If they are going to keep him alive, I think a better way of looking after him would be to give him hard physical labour to do so he is too worn out in the evenings to do anything other than sleep. I think this for all people who have life sentences - especially those who won’t ever come out.

Prison is not for rehabilitating people like Bellfield, it’s for containing them and keeping us safe from him. He should be working hard for his bed and board because we are the ones footing his bill.

I suspect if it was someone I loved who had been murdered, I would want them to undergo horrible tortures before dying in unimaginable pain. But, fortunately, we do not make laws on the basis of people's primitive revenge instincts, because that would be the way to anarchy.

You can't order people what to think, so that's a total non-starter.

Why is reading OK but not watching TV or playing games? They're just different forms of entertainment, after all.

I feel like it's just because of the higher material value, that people are angry that a criminal like that could have that

Yes police stations

that poster got it wrong.

How much does he have then?

I wouldn't. They'd have to disassemble the controller to create something - and it's already keeping them absorbed and controllable for hours a day.

You’d be surprised at how sharp weapons can be fashioned out of anything!

Can't stab anybody or cut them with a wireless controller, either. But a pencil and pencil sharpener? They can be used as weapons.

Why is the pleasure of reading/drawing OK, but the pleasure of playing video games is unacceptable, @Alexandra2001?

How do you rank the fun/pleasure of various leisure activities, to draw the line between those you are happy for prisoners to enjoy, and those that aren’t acceptable, in your view? How does this take into account that different people enjoy different things, so you might be ‘depriving’ a prisoner of something that bores them and telling them the only activities that are permissible happen to be their favourite pastime?

Do you mean like his victims families have to endure?

He can have some drawing material and books.

Certainly those whose state pension is being used towards their fees leaving them with £30 a week are.

Apples and oranges.

He will be working for it. This is an unrealistic comparison, as many people in care homes are paid for by the state.
