I think the sentences should have been left as they were.What do you all think?

[paddywak]

People might disagree with me but I think people like this should have a very short sentence, about 5ft on the end of a rope

[Dassie]

Agreed. What is a life worth nowadays......3 odd years...disgusting justice ( as usual ).

[bensmum]

Have to agree - it seems that it wasn't a random attack but systematic abuse which ended in that poor man's death. They must have known what they were doing and to me it's just another case of the victim's right being of lesser importance than the thugs'

[sukkie]

I think they should be locked up and the key thrown away!

[Lonnie]

A public Birching, then the rope.

You Can Take A Life, But Do'nt Think About Robbing A Bank !! 20yrs Plus For That. The Pig's Should Have The Same Treatment , As They Doled Out To That Poor Guy

[Ice-Maiden]

Agree with Lonnie.

As the mother of a child with learning disabilities (asperger syndrome) these stories always upset me because one day my son will be a vulnerable adult like the man in the article. I won't be around to look after him due to the health issues I have but hopefully his dad will be there.
Its a shame these scumbags are allowed to live after what they have done.

daffy654,
Just like to say, my daughters Autistic, and i've had a lot to do with Aspergers sufferers, so I know the worries you have, and they are very real.

To have those worries shows that your doing a magnificent job looking after him.

Bless you.
