    Making the sentence concurrent with the existing one is no punishment at all.

      This is of course complete bollocks
      What do you propose instead then? That they release him first?

        I would suggest that the reason for giving him an additional sentence is about keeping him AWAY from society in general. Its pretty clear that he’s not a well bunny…
        I dont think that in situations like this the idea of ‘punishment’ has any meaning at all – its about containment and treatment. The man is clearly disturbed and highly dangerous to those close to him…

          Clearly you are confusing concurrent with consecutive, staircase. Look it up.

    Well if you end up getting friendly with a convicted murderer, I’m sorry to say you make a pretty poor choice of bedfellows.

    I suppose you could call this as one more example of a gay man getting in touch with more sensitive feminine side, I am surprised that he didn’t eat him as well as Mr Gay UK Pride did a few years back.

    1. Just can’t stay away from gay sites, can you?

  5. Some gay men, like lots of vulnerable women, are attracted by the psychopathic type character….it’s almost unavoidable.
