Re: Lockerbie bomber released
SLM i don't know if he was guilty or not i am certainly not convinced he was but until such as that had been established beyond reasonable doubt he should have remained in custody and the investigation should have continued. There is politics in this somewhere whether that be in scotland or not whether it is to do with his release or his conviction but politics is in there. I oppose compassionate release unless as i said the person concerned has demonstrated true remorse and regret over whatever actions placed them in prison and it shouldn't be something that gets abused the way it does right now. Ronnie biggs that frail poor old man that seems to have come on in leaps and bounds since his release and lets not forget the guiness guy (think it was guiness anyway but i am sure someone remembers it better then me) a few years ago who had a really bad illness till he got released and wollah instant cure.
