to think that 15 years sentence for Philpott is not enough?

[Missbopeep]

15 years for the deaths of six children?

I thought you could get 15 years or life for one murder ( and yes, I know the charge was manslaughter.)

The term life is meaningless if it's only 15 years.

Or even misogyny.

Normally in these cases I would say that any sentence that could be given would be nothing compared to the punishment of having to live with the deaths of your children.

But they don't care do they? Not once have I seen either of them look genuinely upset. The defence haven't used their grief to prove lack of intent. There is not one shred of evidence that they feel anything for those poor children. It's unnatural.

shag according to the Panorama programme all he did was the school run in the morning , he had little other involvement with the kids .I would love to think that they feel terrible but TBH his behaviour shows the opposite and surely if she felt that bad she would have stopped trying to protect him and told the police the truth .

If, as some people suspect, Mick Philpott has sociopathic tendencies he really could be unaffected by the childrens' death other than the impact it has on him and his way of life.

Its hard for us to comprehend but he may not have a normal emotional reaction to this at all.

Thanks for the info on intent. I will look up that case.
