Title: The Death Penalty in the UK
Post by: Highlander on March 21, 2019, 21:00:21 PM
This is the dreadful case of Alesha MacPhail's rape and murder.  :( :( :(

I have always thought that, on balance the death penalty should be an option in some cases.

This case has reinforced that thought and I think it should certainly have been an option for the judge.

Yes, I'm for the Death Penalty in cases where there is a confession and no mitigating circumstances.

He'll not last long in jail. He's a marked man.

We can only hope toky but the State should be able to take that decision as I feel sure you would agree.

KKOB might help us with the mechanisms of his incarnation from this point.

I think you meant incarceration John. Anyway with modern DNA and other forensic techniques I back the death penalty 100%. The execution of an innocent person is highly unlikely.

Based on recent Home Office figures it costs £38k pa to keep an adult in prison. So,this scumbag is going to cost the British Tax Payer about £1m during his 27 year sentence. On the other hand, a 9mm lead injection just behind his right ear would cost us about £1.25.

In this case there is absolutely zero chance of a miscarriage of justice so why not the death penalty.

If you have any doubts about the option of the death penalty it is reported as follows:

"But as Campbell was sentenced it was disclosed he told the psychologist he was "mildly amused" police took two days to arrest him after Alesha's body was discovered".

"The teenager also admitted he had to "zip his mouth" to stop himself laughing during the trial".

"Perhaps the most disturbing revelation he volunteered was that he was "quite satisfied with the murder".

Absolutely it should a life for a life if there is no doubt the person is guilty of the crime...
Totally unbelievable the comments this scumbag made he is a danger to society.
Same goes for James Bulger’s killers they should be hanged.

I don’t know the full story but Tina Malone ( Shameless) had to go to court and just missed getting a prison sentence and has to pay £10,000 fine for sharing something on fb about the identity of one of those evil scum of little James, she seems genuine that she was pretty clueless about fb it’s workings.
Those 2 just seem to keep on having leniency showed to them.

Maybe the death penalty may make people think twice before committing these heinous crimes where families and lives are ripped apart, this current knife crime culture is truly shocking.
