Should prison sentences be longer?

[J R Hartley]

I dont think the killing of a police officer is any different to the killing of a nurse or some bloke down the road .

I definitely however think we should have heavier prison sentences for violent crime including serious assaults , armed robbery , manslaughter and murder

Run of the mill murder .....twenty years minimum

A wife kills her husband after years of beatings ? Well if she picks up a kitchen blade in a fit of fear she will probably be convicted of manslaughter and get five years and thats probably too much .

But if she goes out and buys a knife and kills him she gets done for murder ?

Its all up the spout

These lads , its obviously been concluded there was not enough evidence to convict them of murder but there was manslaughter . You can get life for manslaughter , they certainly deserve it .

Do the passengers deserve life? Driver yes, passengers no for me.

I think you'll find that as they committed the burglary or whatever together then they are jointly and separately responsible foi all the actions of everyone concerned. Witness Bentley and Craig.
