Please someone explain to me why Britain ever did away with hard labour sentences for someone like this? I know the death sentence is a minefield, but surely this…person…deserves to spend years of his life labouring away, pondering his actions?
I hadn’t even noticed he was off to a YOI. I take it they’re a softer environment than a standard prison?
The gimp should be carting barrow loads of rubble for road building, or something similarly strenous. 5 years of that, preferably in the rain, seems like the right sort of backdrop for contemplation on what he did.
