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

I'm sure the families of his victims don't really want to read this?

What's this all about. People on whole life sentences are meant to have the bare minimum

🙄😫😢

I honestly couldn't give a fuck if he or any other prisoner gets a fry up and an x box. What he doesn't get to do is harm anyone else while he's in there. He doesn't get to walk out his front door and go for a pint. He doesn't get to sit in the garden or go to sleep in his own home every night with peace of mind. He doesn't get to come home from work and order a takeaway or meet a friend at the football. Deprivation of liberty is the punishment and it's a significant one.

Very short sighted views. No incentives for good behaviour then? Also most people are released from prison at some point. Would you prefer ex cons to have better or worse mental health when they get back in to society?

It is true sensory deprivation can make a person go insane, as was alluded by a previous poster

Well quite. The families wouldn’t have to read stuff like this if the DM didn’t publish this sort of rage bait to rile up readers like the OP.

I’d be quite happy if we locked up any journalist who does it.

I watched the documentaries about him. He is absolutely vile, devoid of any kind of empathy or responsibility for what he did. I'm mainly on the fence about the death penalty but I think someone like him who contributes absolutely nothing to the human race, I would have no qualms about pulling the lever. Eugh horrible, repulsive individual

What, for murder down to petty pilfering?
Anyway, it isn't a deterrent. I don't know how many times here and elsewhere this has been said. Are people still not understanding?

But would you be prepared to shoot a poisoned dart at the journalist via a peep hole?

I’m not saying it would kill them though. Maybe just the effects could be very bad diarrhea

The ‘peephole’ is a glass window, so how?? And who?

who will be doing all this?

What extras? A play station and a fried slice.

Who cares, what sort of 'extras' are these?

He is deprived of his liberty, end of. Keeping us safe and him punished by him not being able to go about his business.

Job done.

Dear Lord. Yes yes yes, of course we must do all that we can to look after the mental “health” of these utter scum bags! Now, where did I place my hessian bag full of tofu?

The journalist already got what was coming to them apparently

A poisoned dart or otherwise. We need to know

Well it certainly would make a difference to Bellfield as he would be dead. He should be given the lethal injection. He's an absolutely evil excuse for a human. Total scum.

Because the death penalty works brilliantly in the US and Russia, they have very low crime rates……..oh… hang on.

Got a job at the Daily Mail

Oh a poisoned fart then

It absolutely is a deterrent. In Singapore there is the death penalty for murder. They had 10 cases last year. We in the UK had 700.

I’d rather have the death penalty but after seeing a BBC documentary about prisoners in solitary confinement I can’t get mad about this. Taking an already insane person and trying to drive them more insane would make us as bad as them.

You sound lovely.

I know. This probably sounds better in the pub but in black and white it’s unhinged

when people say about how much benefits cost the country etc, how much does keeping prisoner's locked up that will always be a danger to society ?

The sort of people who are going to kill people or who have that inclination are not deterred by punishment, they simply work harder to avoid getting caught.

Not even for the one who doorstepped me after my sister died. Although maybe if it’s a nasty case of diarrhoea.

My problem with the death penalty is that the justice system makes mistakes. If someone has been given a life sentence, and their conviction is found to be wrong, they can be released and compensated. If you execute someone, and then find out they were entirely innocent, they are still dead.

Providing he is never, ever out in public committing crimes? They think there were others...
