Ian Huntley

[Handrejka 1,903]

Why do we try to save these people? A convicted killer like Huntley who wants to get rid of himself should be given a few tabs and the choice to end it all. They're happy, few others care one way or the other, it saves a lot of house-keeping bills and the families of the victims don't have to suffer every time the killer features in the news. Maybe that's the point though, maybe forcing him to live is part of the punishment. That seems perverse.

 

I don't support the death penalty but keeping killers alive when they no longer want to live seems a waste of taxpayers' money. In the past it has allowed people like Myra Hindley, Ian Brady and the Kray Twins to find celebrity in jail. If any such people want to end their miserable lives at their own hands they should be free to do so.

 

 

Agreed

Mmmmmmm. Why let them choose when and how they will die. I think that committees should spend endless years choosing when and how it should happen. There should be appeals, last minute reprieves, retrials and re-sentencing. The condemned should receive information and misinformation. The whole process should be designed by a team who have spent years studying Kafka's 'In the Penal colony'. In the end the ultimate is that the little fellow begs to die and is told 'No......... not just yet'.

 

The end, when it comes, should follow a notice of unconditional reprieve and release.

 

This isn't necessarily a rational approach but I guess many of us were a little traumatised by the deaths of those innocent strangers. Excuse me.

He taped a full account of what really happened, assuming - it seems - that he wouldn't be around to face any more consequences. His account is being transcribed by prison officers, guys on poorish wages, one of whom might be tempted into a running off an additional photocopy in return for tabloid cash.

 

I predict this thread will bounce up and down like the desperate defensive clearances of Stockport County.

He's not looking too good in this photo

 

I just hope that the drugs that Huntley took caused some damage to either his liver or kidneys or possibly both and that he'll have several years of pain and suffering from the effects of that.

Depends what he took. If they were anti-depressants, and the papers say they were, there are two main types. Tri-cyclics, which are old-fashioned, and cause cardiac arrhythmias in overdose. But once they have worn off he'd be OK in the longer term. Its unlikely they'd prescribe these in a prison. The modern types are SSRIs (like Prozac) and 29 of them wouldn't do much harm.

 

I note that my earlier post advocating a long slow death has been expunged. Was it that much of a rant?

Having perused the delights of the Trashcan, the only post of yours relating to Huntley is one that quotes from others, and contains nowt else. Which is why MH deleted it.

 

What happened to the rant, maybe you imagined it.

It really isn't clever to look back at past experiences, and brush it on others as if that was happening to them. Alchohol might not be the prime explaination here.

I said that it too easy for him to allow him choice over when and how he died. His victime had no such luxury. I went on to say that his fate should be decided at length by committees who would, over many years, constantly change their minds: reprieving him, re-condemning him etc. I suggested that the whole exercise would be based on Kafka's 'In the Penal Colony'. In the end he would be executed moments after being notified of his release.

 

It was posted a few days ago and was definitely there in the last 24 hours. Does anyone remember it. Am I going mad?

[Paul Bearer 6,101]

I don't remember seeing it!

Now I know what must have happened, your reply to Handy's post got included in her quote.

 

In other words it looked like your reply was really her post. You buggered up with the quote function.

 

I'll correct it and restore to this thread

So I won't need the anti-psychotic medication after all.

I'd like to nominate that all round Mr nice guy IAN HUNTLY to succeed in one of his suicide attempts. Now that WOULD be cause for celebration would it not?

Three wrongs don't make a right.

[maryportfuncity 10,645]

The people we could get near, if we could find them, are the kind of sickos convicted yesterday of a plot to kidnap and rape two sisters. They'd swapped e-mails about 'Doing a Soham.' Meaning Huntley is a friggin' role model with followers.

 

Not good.

[maryportfuncity 10,645]

Victim to sue him. Should lower his already desperate self-esteem situation. Obviously she's no hope of cash from him, though the social services dept who failed her might be filling their pants as we speak.

Torture him horribly for days and then burn him at the stake.

'And that was a party political broadcast from the Liberal Democrat Party...'

 

 

I am only joking, mind. I totally agree. Hang the f****r up by his bollocks.

I agree with the burning, but surely a South African style "tyreing" would be much more painful?

[maryportfuncity 10,645]

Plot to poison the man. Unlikely to do much for his already shredded self-esteem.

[Harvester Of Souls 40]

With any luck someone will succeed and while this won't crop up on any Deathlist (even if it would make an interesting outsider bet) the satisfaction of seeing Huntley brutally murdered would restore the faith in the British penal system.
