Because the US has a death penalty and we don’t?
Which bits of the US system would you gut? Fair trial? Appeal?
Just be a man and say you want them dead because you’re angry. Don’t hide behind “oh I just want to save money” like a pussy.

He’d have gone to an age appropriate prison. You do realise that there’s plenty of inmates in prison with learning issues. Broadmoor is for dangerous prisoners with severe mental health issues. It’s not a case of you couldn’t pass your 11+ so it’s straight of to a secure mental health unit for you.
For starters we’ll be picking up the tab for legal costs on both sides. Then you have the cost of keeping them during the appeal process which could be years. You’re suggesting 80 prisoners are eligible in your opinion for capital punishment. Say the appeal process takes an average of 10 years per prisoner, £ 800M divided by 80 equals £10M per prisoner. Sounds plausible to me. If they lived to serve 40 years of a full life sentence that would cost roughly £2.6M per prisoner or £208M for the 80 prisoners.The only person who seems angry is you.
Ivs stated on another thread this is a discussion on whole life tariffs
There are about 80 people who fit that bill and it’s rather unlikely many would get past the first stage of appeal and perhaps you can tell me how £800 million would be spent on appeals.
For the record though I do think in cases of the truly abhorrent crimes where guilt is flagrantly obvious I think the criminal has forfeited the right to live. It’s the estimated 4% of cases where an innocent person is executed by the state that have me believe it should never be reinstated as a blanket punishment for murder
Another one of two women on the list (we all know the other) Joanna Dennahy has frequently tried to escape so they continue their blood lust
Not the only one with blood lust if this thread is anything to go by
What would you do with Miss Dennahy? Described as the most dangerous woman in Britain. Have a cosy chat over tea and cake? I’d be careful as she had made plans to chop a prison guards hand and use the fingers to activate the biometric system so she could kill a bit more. She was feeling bored apparently
It is honestly quite sweet how much joy you seem to get describing this stuff! You should be a tour guide or something (maybe you already are)
Oerh
Exactly it’s pointless talking about cases 60 years ago.
People should have A look at the grisly characters on the whole life tariff. The one whose been there the longest is Robert John Maudsley. Although it’s never been proved Mr Maudsley ate the brains of the victims he held hostage while he systematically tortured them in his prison cell he has killed more in prison than out.

Some have admitted they could never be released. One Anthony Arkwright has been in for 32 years and still is only in his early 50 years so is likely to be in prison for well over 60 years and no doubt receive pretty good health care if old age kicks in. Perhaps he will get to 100 and celebrate 80 years in clink and get a telegram from the monarch at the same time.
I’ve never said he wasn’t responsible for his actions. I said him being trialed, convicted and hung for murder was wrong, which it was as 40years of appeals proved. How are you not getting this?So you're now saying he was fully responsible for his actions and having a mental age of thirteen* is no defence?
*Which I don't necessarily agree with.
It's irrelevant which parts of the US system I would hypothetically gut since we are discussing the UK which does not have the US system of justice.
I merely pointed out it would be a lot cheaper. In another thread I actually put forward and argument for keeping a prisoner alive:

This is a strange rant about the 'the right'. Almost heading into Tony territory. I've seen Ian & Brighton calling for death penalties this morning... hardly forum righties.I swear the right are the biggest feelings over facts snowflakes around.
“wah I want to kill bad men and pretend it’s for cost reasons”
“wah I want to drive my car and not be reminded of the consequences”
“wah I didn’t lose the election it was all fraud”
“wah modern manufacturing doesn’t employ as many people and I lost my job for life that needed no education”
Bunch of fucking babies. Man up and deal with the real world. Facts don’t care about your feelings.
It’s never. “Yeah I just want to kill people” or “I don’t care about the survival of the species I want to drive a loud car”. Own your fucking ridiculous positions. You just look silly denying reality to save face.

I'm Conservative and I'm not for the death penalty. If it happened to someone close to me I'm sure I'd want whoever dead and I never shed a tear when I hear one of these monsters has met their comeuppance in prison. Its just the whole theatre around the death penalty doesn't sit right with me.

Said on the psychotic nurse thread. State sanctioned murder demeans us as a society
Personally I’m on the wall to some degree. There’s been numerous cases where in the heat of the moment I’ve said I’d quite happily pull the trigger, press the button, pull the leaver. Especially where child killers are involved and especially since becoming a father. Murder is an horrendous crime and absolutely deserves the full weight of justice but there are several wider questions, the obvious one being what it says about us as a society. It clearly doesn’t work as a deterrent. In a civilised society with a robust appeal process aimed at ensuring that miscarriages of justice don’t happen, especially important if the sentence is death, it clearly doesn’t work as a cost saving exercise. So that only leaves revenge, an ugly character in a human being let alone a society so that really is the only thing to have a debate around. Deterrent and costs is no more than a straw man argument.This is a strange rant about the 'the right'. Almost heading into Tony territory.

I think there’s a lot to that Pete.Said on the psychotic nurse thread. State sanctioned murder demeans us as a society
I get where you're coming from, I really do. But some people seem to get off on it, which as I say, doesn't sit too well.I call for it in very specific cases. In general we can tell empirically that it’s not a deterrent and in some cases innocent people will be executed. In some cases e.g the Wests, Harold Shipman and those of similar ilk they have forfeited their right to life.

I know and I respect thatI find it a tall order arguing for the continued existence of Ted Bundy, Dylan Roof and Rose West as just 3 examples. Sorry Pete I can’t do it
I never understand why spree killers or terrorists or whatever are attempted to be bought in alive. They are literally there shooting or stabbing, just bring them down and be done with it. Once they are in custody alive though, just like anyone else, its a no from me.I think Pierrepoint’s view that once they have repaid their debt with their life that’s the end of it is the right one. It’s like these online paedo stings that appear everywhere on YouTube, don’t plaster it all over the internet for likes just go straight to the police with the evidence.

Setting up a kill room like Dexter seems a bit psychotic... and who's doing the killing? Either someone already damaged or someone who may well be afterwards.

Out of interest, and I'm interested what you think, not arguing with you. Where is the cut off point for what kind of murder gets death penalty and what doesn't? If this was available as a punishment it would have to be written in law so you'd need set rules.I can understand that but really the state is killing them either in the act of the crime or after they have gone through due process and a trial. I would always prefer them if possible to be caught alive and made to go through a trial so there can be some hope of closure for relatives.
As above, I don’t believe in it as a blanket punishment.

To be honest I don’t know how I feel about capital punishment - I can see arguments for and against. I can certainly see more justification for it in the more severe crimes, and there is the idea of absolute guilt as well.This is a strange rant about the 'the right'.

Fair. I do get what you're saying and I certainly wouldn't cry over it if it was a thing.

Make prison building a national industry, dont rehabilitate and give staple food only, less likely to want to come back for playstations. Let the SAS deal with nutters, nonces and those who complain about them being neutralised.

Fifty years ago the last murderers were hanged in the UK. It brought to an end an era of extraordinarily swift capital punishment.www.bbc.co.uk
