Tragic and sad. While I feel for the families, I think this would seem to be the right outcome.

If the sentence is changed because it is too 'lenient' then it makes a farce of the law. A hospital order that in all likelihood will last until death is not a matter of being lenient.

As ever with some of the GBP unless they aren't being stretched on a rack whilst simultaneously having their fingernails pulled out by a pair of pliers then we've just gone soft as a nation.

Flog 'em.

String them up.

This is what we need more of:

Before we work on Artificial Intelligence shouldn't we address the problem of natural stupidity.

To be fair, I can understand the families' reactions but I don't think they are correct here.

Definitely seem to be serious questions for the police.

I wasn't thinking of the families. I had been scrolling through Twatter I know, I know. Should know better.
