Look up David McGreavy, he also has a thread here on WS.
45 years ago, he slaughtered three young children and impaled their bodies on an iron fence.
He was convicted to various life sentences, and for some unbelievable reason, he is now eligible for parole. The mother, who is still fighting to survive this horrible loss, fears for her life, but that is of little consideration to the members of the board.
But still. At least he was behind bars for 45 years.
What happened since 1973 that evaporated prison sentences for murderes and child murders alike? Why has the value of a life lost gone down so much, and that of a murderer's life gone up (and climbing)?
Mikaeel, I am so sorry. The parole board agrees with the mother who killed you: your life had amazingly little value.
I hope there is someone who can stop this.
