Ian Huntley's Throat Slashed In Jail

[NoKnowledge]

The attack on Huntley, who is serving two life sentences for the murder of schoolgirls Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman, comes just a week after three prison officers were stabbed and slashed with a shard of glass, at the high-security jail.

He has also tried to commit suicide while in prison on three occasions.

Evening Chronicle

So he tried suicide, didn't work;
he had a inmate throw boiling water, didn't work; and
he had his throat slashed, didn't work

The governor is getting it only because the job wasn't executed well.

He will probably be let out, be given new identity, etc.

In my opinion, throw away the key.

No he will do a minimum 40 years this was set my the government, after his trial.

ohh the cell 7ft by 4ft and no reading materials or anything to occupy the mind

I would give him holiday catalogues to read.

To add insult to injury, or in this case cash to injury.....

Ian Huntley could be awarded up to £20,000 in compensation after he was attacked in prison - the same amount as the parents of his two young victims.

This excuse for a human being should get very limited rights for the crime he commited, sueing the prison authorities for being attacked by an inmate is not one of them, although I could see why he would try and sue.
This guy is obviously mentally unstable, therefore maybe he is in the wrong place.

Why do they not bring back hard labour and make prison a real punishment! Chain gangs sound good to me as well.

Hopefully not.

The Government has "absolutely no intention" of paying compensation to Soham killer Ian Huntley after he was attacked in prison, Justice Secretary Jack Straw said today.

Now unless the government and Jack Straw have a history of talking tough then quietly being shafted by the courts we have nothing to worry about.

Oh...

Jack Straw, who was home secretary at the time of the hijack, said he was "utterly determined that nobody should consider that there can be any benefit in hijacking".
