Preston Davey- his murderer has been given a whole life order.
AIBU to hope he has no opportunity to kill himself?
I hope he suffers death by 1000 cuts.
Im pleased for once that a sentence is appropriate for the crime.

What’s the point of your thread? Are you really expecting anyone to come along and say they think it should be less?!

There are at least 3 or 4 other threads running about this - why couldn’t you contribute to one of those?

The situation is devastating and disgusting but this is turning into attention seeking, everyone having to have their two minutes about it.

If you bothered to look instead of being so nasty I started this at 12.56. Before the others. If there are 3 or 4 others running why come here just tobe nasty? Did it make you feel good about yourself?

People worry that it won't be. Remember how a lot of people kept arguing Myra Hindley should have been released? Right up to her death.

Lord Longford anyone...she repeatedly tried to use the location of the children's bodies to get released.

I used to be in favour of capital punishment but these days I am not so sure, this case has pushed me back into thinking it's needed

I’m not sure how much of a punishment prison will actually be but I hope he suffers throughout it.
In my ideal world though I’d have it done with and he’d be dropped down a well and left there.
