Maybe she whispered something like "don't you dare appeal" into her ear?

793881 2009-07-22 12:06:00 I found it odd that the mother of the victim, hugged the defence lawyer after the trial. I hope there isn't going to be an appeal.

Maybe she is intellectually, morally and emotionally capable of more circumspection than is to be found on internet forums...?

793882 2009-07-22 12:13:00 Lets have an amnesty, Just let him go free, Show him society bears him no ill will for his evil act and he will assimilate back in with hugs and kisses all around.

And then we can all dance through the tulips together......

I thought it was the two mothers who hugged each other after the trial.

Odd how you characterise as extreme those opinions and ideas that differ from your own - especially when those opinions are not as extreme as you state.

And ironic that your own ideas actually are quite extreme and need no exaggeration at all.

Liberals - even the most fervent bleeding heart liberals - have not ever, anywhere in public or political life, proposed to give amnesty to murderers, let them go free, bear them no ill will for their evil acts or believe that they will easily assimilate back into society.

I can only assume that you resort to baseless ridicule of liberal thinking about criminal justice because you lack the ability to debate the issue in a reasonable manner.

793886 2009-07-22 22:28:00 Liberals in NZ starting in the eighties to late 90s wrecked the justice system here by being weak on criminals and tough on victims.
Thanks to Act who are guiding the government these failed policies are getting pushed back, the prison population is increasing which by the way is a good thing.
NZ crooks who have a 80% recidivist re offending will be behind bars where they belong.
We dont lock up anywhere near the percentage of the population that the yanks do, so we probably have a way to go because there are similarities between NZ and usa.
If like the usa we have to incarcerate 10% of all males from a certain part of the community so be it here also.
Clayton was a nut, only a nut stabs a girl over 200 times. Lucky he didnt get away with on psychological grounds.
I am sure this creep and his obese pommy lawyer will be looking at an appeal.
The judge is a known liberal soft on crooks hard on victims judge.

It is unfortunate that they have to be released to find this out

You can debate an amnesty for prisoners until the cows come home, I'll give it the respect such a suggestion deserves and ridicule it. And if that means pushing liberal thinking to the thin edge of the wedge so be it, You and people like you are the ones that want predators released back into the community due to some bizarre notion that attacking the community is better then stewing in a cell.

793889 2009-07-22 22:45:00 I think an amnesty may have merit if the crooks can pass the following test.
Swim from Disapointment island to the main Auckland Island.
Any survivors can go free. I think the success rate would be along the same lines as Alcatraz and San Francisco mainland.
