A victim, no. But there may be some who would urge us to "understand" him, and maybe even forgive him. It is hard to believe, but remember that there were people who thought that Myra Hindley should be released? As time passes, people seem to forget just how heinous some crimes really are. I also recall reading somewhere that there was a possibility of Peter Sutcliffe applying for parole in the future. Back when he was sentenced, who would ever have thought that?
In addition, we must also remember that there is always a possibility (however tiny) that he could go free by other means.
