civilised country we are but jail is too good for the alleged london sword murder if found guilty.

Should give the victims family a hour to " discuss " the crime with the guilty with no repercussions for the family
and i`m sure that many will offer to sharpen the blades or plait the manila to help them.

I remember a judgement in Iran where some dog **** blinded his missus with acid. The old beak sentenced the offender to be blinded himself. The offender carried on to no avail. I see that as fair, btw i`m up for the judgement not the actual country.

Perhaps rapists could be ..... ...... ,,,........,,,,,,,

any old how she relented .

 

The last time the death penalty, for treason, was administered outside of the law (by individuals taking matters into their own hands) was likely Singapore in 1942?

When reading about these sickening and scary crimes, I find it irritating that neither the defence or the prosecution ever appear to have asked the perp "Why did you do it?"
Or if they did, the reason, if any is given, is never reported.

Anyone know if there's a legal reason for this?.

So long ago and without the DNA and science we have today.
He was buried in my area and we had to 'guard' the cemetery to keep the press out when they exhumed his remains.... up to that point his family who were pushing for it were loudly proclaiming it would prove his innocence.... when it proved his guilt.... 'oh there must have been an error in storage' it was so long ago it must have deteriorated.... then quickly, silence in the press.

the lack of punishment in prisons is down to cost. we have to give them far too many things to enhance their lives and rehabilitate them..... 3 strikes and then should be a different regime for them, as they obviously cannot be rehabilitated - no tv, no phones, basic food, no 'luxuries' etc.
 
"Mercy to the guilty is cruelty to the innocent."

Besides, a bullet is cheap.

As we say here, "The recidivism of those that get the death penalty is exactly 0%."

The death sentence is ugly, revolting and regretful. But in any society, there are alphas that are wired to prey on their fellow man, and they must be culled. It isn't pretty, but the world is an imperfect place.
