Bag snatcher guilty of murder

I hear Mr Shadrock has been found guilty of murder rather than manslaughter in the Auckland bag-snatch + run over case.

Good.

Daily Thompson was a Bag Snatcher in Brixton, thats why he could so fast.

Death pit!!

Not manslaughter... isn't that pretty much unheard of these days... 1 less scumbag on the streets for quite a while then... sweet.

at a cost of $70,000 per annum if he goes to a privately run prison (soon mt eden), or $45,000 if he goes to a govt run prison.
I say we make 'em into gladiators and fight eachother to the death for our entertainment. they did murder people afterall, they are experts at it.

Lets just wait and see how those figures stack up in fact, if it actually happens long enough to evaluate the difference, it should make interesting reading!

Trouble is nothing ever gets to fruition before the other silly pricks (whatever persuasion) come in and change it.

And the defence are considering appealing the decision.

Have lawyers no fucking morals?

Lawyers have morals and duties to their clients...

I suspect the source of your figures may be somewhat under stated, the actual cost of incarceration of a prisoner for a calender year is in excess of $97,000p/a. I dare say a private prison will still recieve the same, but will cut costs in labour, and management to make a bigger profit as they do in the states and in Australia.
It's a good job he was found guilty, hopefully he'll do some serious time for his crime and not get parole for a reasonable stint. Another person destined for care at Parry no doubt. My thoughts are that NZ should follow the usa and focus on incarceration rather than rehabilitation. We should spend as little as possible on criminals and then make them pay it back upon release............

Hehe, lawyers, morals, hehe.
To be fair on them, we need defence lawyers no matter how bad a rap they get from cases like this. I'm just thankful the Jury made the right decision.
