Paedophile to be deported to UK

A British paedophile who has spent 37 years in an Australian jail is to be deported to the UK, officials said. UK-born Robert Excell, 66, who moved to Australia when he was ten, will be flown home as soon as he has the necessary travel documents, said a spokesman for the Western Australia Justice Department. Excell, who emigrated to Australia as a child but never became a citizen, was serving an indeterminate sentence at the State Governor's pleasure after a string of sex attacks on boys.

What do you think?

Hear hear bunny3.

I remember the furore that this caused in 2002 and he wasn't released.

WHY oh WHY are the Australians releasing him at all??? Transfer him by all means so that Britain can bear the cost of imprisoning him but FFS don't let him loose.

The thing is he'll be loose and no one will know where he is- for our children's sakes I hope he doesn't reoffend bUT as bunny says he doesn't think there's anything sick in what he's doing so will carry on.

I saw a tv prog once years ago- before i had dd- and there was a paedo on it who thought he was normal- he genuinely didn't think there was anything wrong with the way he felt...

The whole situation is making me sick- the thought that there are beasts like this out there

I agree with Bunny3 aswell

mp and caligula, regarding peopleare hardline on paeds yet feel strongly about civil rights ( I am Amnesty Memeber), bottom line is people who rape children are no longer people.... that's the simplest way to describe it IMO. Society has to have a boundary and IMO that's it

emmatmg · 24/03/2005 10:14

On GMTV this morning they said he won't be comingback until July now as the UK police are investigating an incident of sexual assault on a teenage inmate by this man.

FFS....and they want to release him......I'm speechless.

The chap being interviewed was a "supporter" of Excell (WHY????) and said "he's been in therpy and councilling for 23 yrs to cope and manage with teh crimes his commited and has been pacing his cell in torture and anguish"

Well, I'm sorry if this is OTT but I should fu*king well hope so. I would imagine that his victims have been though a whole lot more torture and anguish at the hands of this anmial than he'll ever be.

What a load of bollocks.....he'll come back, be on the registar and live a free man and I'll eat my hat if he doesn't re-offend. FFS he did when he's been released and has when he's been locked up. What hope is there?

Pixifish, I saw that programme too. I vividly remember one scene where this "THING" was being interviewed saying "I just like anyone else, you find men sexually attractive, that man might find ather man attractive, and I find children sexually attractive....why is that wrong?"

wobblyknicks · 24/03/2005 10:26

FFS - I find men sexually attractive but if it was suddenly illegal and immoral then I could very easily contain my urges and go and get help, anyone can do that.

He's reoffended so much, he's obviously not sorry. I'd like to bash him to death but thats not a civilised answer. But they could lock him up for life, or better, as someone suggested, shove him on a remote island and let him take his chances. Why should we pay to look after him, he, and anyone like him, can do a penal version of 'Castaway' and look after themselves. Hell, just put some cameras on the island too, sell it to Channel 4 to repalce Big Brother and MAKE some money out of the criminals!!

Hulababy · 24/03/2005 11:19

I still can't undersatnd why it this man has reoffended so many times before, why they would consider releasing him at all? Surely he has and his chances to show rehabilitation - and he was unable too.

I am all for rehabilitation yes (let's face it, i part of the reason I do my new job!) but this man is not likely to suddenly rehabilitated if he hasn't already.

Caligula · 24/03/2005 11:28

Exactly Hula. I think there's a difference between talking in general and in particular.

Furball · 24/03/2005 12:29

Haven't read all the thread, so sorry. But I feel, good on Australia for keeping him locked up for so long. Glad they take this sort of stuff seriously. The cases you here about of paedophiles in the UK, only seem to get a few years anyway. I am quite often astounded by the pathetic sentences they end up with, quite often even halving them for good behaviour.

suzywong · 24/03/2005 13:01

latest news here is that they are reviewing the decision

suzywong · 24/03/2005 13:03

oh and he had to have one testicle removed when in prison after an assault by a gang of other prisoners

Poor wee sausage

noddyholder · 24/03/2005 13:12

I don't know why these men don't volunteer themselves for castration as surely taking the urge away would not only make the streets safer but would give paedophiles themselves a sort of peace

RTKangaMummy · 24/03/2005 13:14

SW hopefully without pain relief

emmatmg · 24/03/2005 13:29

Thats nice to hear suzy.

The bollock thing, I mean.....hope it really really hurt!

I'm still flumoxed at the chap on GMTV this morning...."a supporter"....FFS, what like you support his crimes, think he's a kind and lovely man. idiot!

bunny3 · 24/03/2005 20:09

this man raped other prisoners whilst detained. If he can manage to do that, he is certainly capable of raping when released. It is only a matter of when. I hope he isnt going to come here to Bournemouth we have the highest concentration of paeds apparently.

bubble99 · 24/03/2005 20:26

bunny3, they do seem to head to the south coast don't they. I take the kids to visit a mate of mine who lives in Hastings and I'm always struck by the amount of single men who seem to gravitate towards children's areas. She lets her 4 year old girl run around naked on the beach, nothing wrong with that if it 's your own private beach but not appropriate IMO in public. Although paedophiles go for children that they can establish regular contact with i.e. Not day trippers or closely supervised children, the thought of some freak getting his rocks off whilst looking at my child makes me feel murderous.

RTKangaMummy · 24/03/2005 20:39

Hastings does have loads of them

One was a security guard at soft play area place

Everyone knew about it

Never went there kept DS well away.

Another was a children's entertainer

These were convited men just out of prison so it was not just gossip

After several convictions but they are only in prison for few years

RTKangaMummy · 24/03/2005 20:41

That is what worries me about this EXCELL bloke if/when he strikes again

he will only be in prison for short time

At least WA have kept him locked up for log periods

bunny3
I think you may be right there, my BIL is a copper in Bournemouth and has his eye very firmly on quite a lot of them

pixiefish · 24/03/2005 23:16

read this today he's out after less than half his sentence

RTKangaMummy · 24/03/2005 23:27

OMG the system is mad

bunny3 · 25/03/2005 12:21

I wish the gov would build more prisons and keep these repeat offenders banged up for life.

bunny3 · 25/03/2005 12:28

sw, I think there are several in my road. Recently we were all anonomously leafleted about a supposed paedophile living 2 doors away . I can imagine all the naked children frolicking on the beach makes a coastal resort the ideal place for some paeds, it makes me feel sick.

network · 29/03/2005 13:47

Serious question

Why do you think that this type of crime is not taken as seriously by the justice system as it is by parents?
