/// It emerged this morning that, because of his mental health, he will now be able to appeal against his sentence in a bid to win an early release. ///

What to kill again?

When will they ever learn?

i am not one to hold a grudge but if he did get out i hope he gets run over by a bus outside the prison gates crossing the road while he has dirty underwear and socks on

Ludwig, we want him to suffer the consequences of his actions, not take the easy option of martyrdom and rest in peace!

Do you really believe that?

That may be the case when a crime is committed in secrecy but these two committed a wilful and horrible crime on a crowded street, did they really think that no one would notice and they would get away with it?

[ummmm]

No...they wanted to be shot and killed.

Ever since Lee Rigby's tragic death, AOG, you have singularly failed to understand the motivation of his killers....

No

In this very unusual case, they threatened armed police and hoped to be martyred.

I don't see why we should grant their wishes by killing them after the event, and at the same time surrender our values related to human life.

Oh so that is an excuse on their behalf is it?

I know perfectly well what their motivation was, they wanted to brutally murder and decapitate one of our service personnel in revenge for our military daring to get involved in Islamic countries.

Death to the infidel and all that.

Dr Filth it is NOT a minimum sentence ( how often do I have to repeat that on here?)
The 42 years is the minimum time he has to serve before he can even start the process of applying for release on licence. In reality it will be many more years than that , if ever, before he is even granted leave to start the parole application. He will either die in jail or be released as a seriously ill old man with just months to live ( remember Ronnie Briggs ?)
I will not be around to see it but I would take a very large bet that his parole application is never granted.
