I have ZERO pity for this man or his family as he brought this on himself and took a life.
I shouldn't think that it is for his benefit, but the children's. But then, I would say that they could probably do without him as a father.

Hang on, that isn't fair on the poor prisoners who don't have kids.
Many prisoners are released, on home visits, over Christmas. There are several reasons for this. For example:
  • So that the criminal's family doesn't have to suffer
  • So that the prison population is reduced and therefore allows more prison officers to have time off and spend it with their families.

This release is not restricted to parents either, it happens to non-parents as well. Also, it is a privilege earned and can be (and often is) withdrawn at a moment's notice.
