Ramrod · 13-01-2004, 09:40

A strange case from start to finish. Why would a man in his position do such things

Heh, I knew this thread was going to be about Harold Shipman before I opened it.

Yeah, but it hardly seems fair that he's got an easy way out? (unless you believe in heaven/hell etc).

well thats true also, but at least he was actually jailed and served some form of punishment for his crimes.

reminds me of the picture that went round a while back... only now does the caption add a bit of irony i suppose

GOOD

I am glad he is dead

they are banging on on the radio about how they effectively have the death penalty to let it happen

my thoughts - leave a rope or some ample sheets with huntley too

I think instead of letting him swing they should have made sure he was kept alive so they could perform some sort of research on him to give an insight into what causes people like him to kill so many. It might have helped them in future investigations .. possibly

I think the news media should have a little more respect for the relatives of the victims and should simply report the fact that Shipman has topped himself without also dragging up the whole history again. I really don't think most of them want to see the media vultures hovering around yet again.

Well sorry but I feel really sad about this news. I used to work for Dr S as well as being a patient and from the day I found out to today I still can't believe he did it. He was such a nice fella and great to work for. I know his family as well and this must be such a shock for them. Hyde will probably be over-run with media today and have got to walk into town to put script in so it will probably be like a rugby scrum. I'm not saying he didn't do it just that I find it hard to believe before anyone thinks I'm unsympathetic to the people that died. I bet they start checking the water supplies as this town had Dr S and the Moors Murderers living in it.
