Or unless she feeds off the attention.She might be desperate for a few days out of the prison, that’s the only reason I can see her going back there.
HmmmOr unless she feeds off the attention.
In the words of NJ 'you're enjoying this aren't you?'
Depends what she's appealing against?I wonder if LL is starting appealing process.
Time is flying - I guess she has 30 days???
He only appealed the sentence, though.Thanks.
I remember even this vile murderer Wayne C. appealed, so I thought it is kind of automatic.
Of course this disgraced former police officer lost .
I think that's incorrect. It was 1983 I believe. Ian Brady & Myra Hindley had whole life orders.Ah Thank you for clarifying![]()
Yeah you can forget the court sketches, the majority of them look like a cross between Picasso and a 6 year old. None of them really resembled her.Hmmm
She didn't seem to enjoy the trial IMO.
Judging by Court sketches.
She, as others, enjoys positive attention.
I guess Mr NJ KC referred to her enjoying "lying games".

No absolutely ZERO resemblance
I guess it would help if they didn’t have a Labrador and white stick.Is there any more pointless job than a court artist I wonder? Apart from hedge fund managers, obviously.
There was no facility for a court to hand down a WLO when they were convicted in the 1960s. The judge will have given a recommendation as to the time they should serve and the Home Secretary would have set the tarrif.I

I think Rose West is also under a whole life order. It's on her Wikipedia, anyway. So, there are four. Hindley(dec), West, Dennehy, and now Letby.There was no facility for a court to hand down a WLO when they were convicted in the 1960s. The judge will have given a recommendation as to the time they should serve and the Home Secretary would have set the tarrif.
Without checking I think the judge made reccomendation of 25 years or something and the Home Sec of the day applied it but it was then increased to whole life by a subsequent person in the position - or similar, I forget the exact circumstances.
I know that Hindley was trying to get parole right up to when she died. I think that the whole life sentence was subsequently confirmed by a court later.
A convicting court was not able to fix the minimum term until, I think, the Criminal Justice Act 2003 set down the statutory sentencing procedure. That was enacted because several murderers challenged the legality of a politician dictating things which should be independently done by the judicial system - rightly so, in my opinion.
Edit; that article is not correct, as far as I'm aware. The Home Secretary has no power to impose criminal sentences. His/her role has been reduced to granting release on compassionate grounds in exceptional circumstances such as when a life prisoner is days away from death and is incapable of causing any danger to the public.
