The other guy Robert Thompson has obviously took his new life and adapted

Until about six months ago wouldn't people have said the same thing about Jon Venables?

Yes, but thats why they're on a life license.

The general population maybe, but apparently the people in charge of his rehabilitation have had worries for a fair amount of time.

I know Jon Venables was not acting on his own, but in 1993 he abducted a small boy.

Then killed him.

Then tried to destroy the body on a rail track.

Now he's in possession of 'indecent images of children'.

This will probably raise questions as to his motive for the abduction all those years ago.

It should. If he was capable of murder, God knows what else he was capable of.

Bring back death sentences.

Would love a referendum on that.

But oh no, we get the alternative voting bollocks

I wish we would get a referendum on that, then maybe there would be less serious crime.

I remember that programme a while ago about Gary Glitter, in a 'what if' situation where we had the death sentence, I don't know how accurate the statistics were but it said that over 50% of adults would vote yes.

I don't know the story well enough to vote in the poll, but (as I can't be bothered going through all the pages) how on earth did the death penalty come into the debate? We are talking about a child murdering another child, aren't we? Did anyone suggest the state should execute a child?
