So, if we go to another country and give them rule of law, health services, railways etc we are an evil empire but the ones who come here are all jolly decent law-abiding citizens. All those Romanians, Albanians etc really want is to do an honest days work but turn to crime only because soje people are nasty to them. Only an idiot would believe that and one does.
The sentence of life in prison appears on a prisoner's record as 99yrs not as the word life, what the the 27yrs minimum means is, that he wont be consider for parole until he's served 27yrs and then he's not force to get it at the first attempt.
It's a bit of misconception that convicts only 'serve' a fraction of their sentence. They all serve their full sentence, BUT, they can serve some of it outside of prison on license.
Tbh Sounds about right. Though, someone I know, but not seen for a while, convicted of attempted murder served half...
Yes but as DMD says,they are on licence.If they step out of line when they are let out on these conditions,they go back to prison and serve the time they were spared.
How can a thread like this with a title RIP Libby descend into arguments and name calling, some of it needs removing. Have some respect.
That's a fair shout, and I did move some posts previously, however the conversation did move on to the Court case, and inevitably to the sentence, so I'll amend the title, and while I don't personally see the need as we have the RIP thread, if anyone wants to create a specific respectful one, I'll make sure it's kept that way. I also think, as the sentence has been passed, just about all that needs to be said has been, so the thread is liable to drift down of its own accord now.
I think it's in my other pants, the ones that go with my sneakers. Hang, the may be in my bag in the trunk of the car. PS That other reply was my best John Wayne impression.
Dull Daily are reporting that the Attorney General have confirmed they've received a request to increase his sentence. They've also confirmed he's only got a week left to appeal his conviction. https://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/new...ney-general-confirms-official-request-5068549 Sorry for starting a new thread but I couldn't find the other Libby thread.
