"The brute had 22 previous convictions dating back to 1972, starting with four indecent assaults committed when he was only 15."

What part of "irredeemable monster" does their justice system not get?

The state killed her. I guess her family couldn't sue the authorities...The lawsuit would "violate" the human rights of those that allowed this monster back on the streets.

What? I'm surprised they didn't let him off with a "caution".

Too bad she didn't have a heater to protect herself with but the state has seen to it that option isn't there either.

This amounts to more social experimentation carried out by public officials on an unwitting public being used as guinea pigs.

“We live in a free society and there can never be guarantees in protecting the public from the most dangerous offenders.”

This sure looks like a guarantee to me:

I am very surprised they didn't give him a council house and hire car.

Inhumane rights.

I wonder if this will lead to any real changes or just talk.

Just talk.

Looks like one to me, too.

Too bad the Brits have, with a few notable exceptions, turned into a nation of pansies.

A society that criminalizes self-defense to the degree that England does would have put me in jail several times. I feel sorry for the dead woman, but a part of me says they all bought into it. The English laws which are supported by most Englanders give them what they get. Unfortunately our laws, environmental and welfare state will probably do us in also.

Naomi’s mother, Verna, said: “Rice should have stayed behind bars.”

This is the understatement of the century.

His other offences included a knifepoint rape and violent sex attacks on girls — including three aged five, 12 and 14.

Very promising rehabilitation material, there.

Amazingly enough, after the death penalty is applied, the recidivism rate always goes to zero.
With life imprisonment, the risk is always there that some bureaucrat will decide he knows better.

"But lawyers won his freedom on human rights grounds — then got release terms relaxed with the same tactic."

His lawyers and the judge who released him should go to prison for the crime because they are responsible for it happening..... and screw THEIR human rights.

Thanks everyone for all of your great comments and posts. I haven't been interacting on this thread because the story depresses me so very much; all aspects of it. My great hope is that out dear British Friends will soon be able to rescue themselves from this turgid, roiling cauldron of Socialist / Liberal / Leftist BS which they appear to be enthusiastically lowering themselves into and is destroying virtually every facet of their lives and culture, all of which is being implemented under the faux guise of "progressive" and "enlightened" thinking.

Please say a prayer for the innocent victims of the Left, and let's not allow their suffering to be rendered meaningless as a result of inaction and complacency. (I know that in this regard I'm singing to the choir here)

Here's a related story which may not provide much hope (it seems like "more talk of the same sort" to me) but it relates to this story and so it may be of interest to some.

NEW measures to deal with dangerous criminals when they are released from prison were announced by Home Secretary Charles Clarke today.

The controversial emergency package is designed to tighten up procedures to protect the public from high-risk offenders.

Mr Clarke wants to introduce a new "dangerous persons order" to control the movements of violent offenders after they have left prison.

The move comes after a series of high-profile failures involving the Home Office's supervision of offenders.

Mr Clarke promised firm steps after critical inquiry reports into the murders of a London financier, John Monckton, and 16-year-old Mary-Ann Leneghan.

The orders are expected to ban high-risk offenders from visiting specified places, and impose curfews and regular reporting requirements to police and probation.

In extreme cases, they could last for the rest of the offender's life and breaching the orders was expected to lead offenders to be sent back to jail.

The conditions are similar to those often applied by probation officers after an offender's release from jail.

But the dangerous persons orders would differ from this existing set-up because conditions would be imposed by the trial judge as he or she handed down sentence after conviction.

Mr Clarke hopes to impose them retrospectively on criminals already in jail - a move likely to be opposed by lawyers and human rights campaigners.

It was thought that, if made retrospectively, offenders would have to appear before a court to have the order imposed before they were freed.

Assistant general secretary of probation union Napo, Harry Fletcher, said: "Napo understands the Home Secretary's concern, but such a move would amount to resentencing and is likely to be legally challenged.

"An alternative route would be to invest in rehabilitation programmes in
jails so that risk is reduced, and further advice given to the parole board to make sure that dangerous prisoners are not released on licence."

He added: "It is essential that ministers stop blaming the under-resourced probation service when release decisions go wrong.

"No-one can reduce risk of reoffending to zero, and politicians need to
accept that fact."

Triple rapist Clive Hayes, 54, murdered a young Polish care worker Karolina Mikolajewska after persuading the parole board to release him after serving 19 years of a life sentence.

A damning inquiry report is expected to be published soon into Anthony Rice, who killed after being released on licence after serving 16 years of a life sentence for attempted rape, indecent assault and actual bodily harm.

About 100 ex-convicts commit serious crimes while on licence every year, according to the chief inspector of probation, Andrew Bridges.

Around a fifth of those had been assessed as "high or very high" risk.

But Mr Bridges stressed the figures were very small compared with the 200,000 under supervision at any one time.

Mr Clarke's announcement is also expected to include an overhaul of the risk assessment procedures used to release violent and serious offenders from prison.

He is also due to strengthen the parole board by restoring its ability to
interview candidates for release in person.

Victor Bates, whose wife Marian was shot dead in a Nottingham jeweller's in 2003 by raiders, one of whom was under supervision at the time, said Mr Clarke was taking the wrong approach.

He said: "I think Mr Clarke ought to realise the old thing about when you are in a hole, stopping digging, and do away with the Probation Service supervising violent criminals.

"It was never designed to do that. It can't do that. It has been proven that it can't do that.

"Keep the violent criminals locked up."

May God help us all.

It really saddens me as I am American but lived in England and love the English people. I can only hope that things change for the better but most Brits have bought into socialism lock, stock and barrel. Try discussing George Bush in any company in London!

Mr Clark is a moron who deserves to be locked up with his beloved violent offenders.

Update for All

35,000 back Sun on rights

By OLIVER HARVEY
and MICHAEL LEA

THOUSANDS of Sun readers have voted to scrap the Human Rights Act.

Nearly 35,000 rang our You The Jury hotline within 24 hours to back our call for an end to the interests of killers, rapists and paedophiles coming ABOVE those of victims.

The crazy legislation has led to many dangerous criminals being freed to re-offend. Others have used the barmy laws to gain perks and pay-outs.

Last night the Government was trying to wriggle out of the shambles. PM Tony Blair and Home Secretary John Reid raised the prospect the law may have to be tightened.

But the rattled pair tried to blame judges for Labour’s bungle in introducing the 1998 Act.

Mr Reid admitted: “What people want is a fair system fairly and competently administered. There’s doubt in recent weeks whether these are being applied.”

The PM’s official spokesman added: “In terms of the operation of the Act, in terms of the interpretation — those are matters on which the Government has said we will make sure public concerns are addressed — and we will.”

But The Sun has stepped in with its campaign to end the madness.This month it emerged a man wanted for the murder of WPC Sharon Beshenivsky should have been deported but was released to protect HIS rights.

Emails supporting The Sun campaign flooded in. Just 223 readers in our poll have voted ‘No’.

Mark Curtis, from Colchester, Essex, said: “Monsters must be relinquished of any rights once such crimes are committed.”

Gareth Binding, from Lancashire, wrote: “The Human Rights Act should protect decent law abiding-citizens. If you abuse their rights, you should be relieved of yours.”

Britain could scrap the Human Rights Act without having to leave the EU. In the absence of the Act, cases would be heard at the European Court in Strasbourg, France, rather than here.

Here's more madness

THE Human Rights Act has led to crazy rulings that have seen murderers and sex offenders being treated better than their victims.

Other evil lags used the legislation to win perks and pay-outs. We list some case histories below . . .

DENNIS NILSEN

SERIAL killer Dennis Nilsen, 60, received hardcore gay porn in jail thanks to human rights laws.

He argued it was his “right to information and freedom of expression” in 2002. The Prison Service agreed to allow that right to Nilsen — convicted of killing six young men in 1983.

MUSTAF JAMA

ROBBER Mustaf Jama, 26, wanted for the murder of WPC Sharon Beshenivsky, should have been deported.

But his native Somalia is considered dangerous so he was FREED. He is thought to be on the run there. Sharon’s dad Stanley Jagger said: “I’m really sick about it.”

SPENCER MELLORS

CONVICTED rapist Spencer Mellors won £4,000 damages after European judges said court delays had breached his human rights.

Mellors, 39, was caged in 1996 for over nine years. But the European Court decided his second appeal took too long — despite the conviction being upheld.

STEPHEN PERRY

ARMED robber Stephen Perry won £1,000 compensation after he was secretly filmed at a police station.

Perry, 39, had refused to join ID parades in Wolverhampton in 1997. In 2003 the European Court of Human Rights ruled it breached his right to a private life.
