Sila gets at least 17 years for killing girls outside party

[Nagash]

Two dead and he gets 17 years? What a terrible joke... He should get LIFE, forever, not coming out again. So, in 12-13 years, he'll be out on the streets? And two people are dead. The victims have no chance to live again, he shouldn't ever be released. No justice there at all.

He did get life, with a MINIMUM of 17 years. So they won't start testing if he's suitable for early release until 17 years of jail time has passed.

"Justice John Forgarty at the High Court in Christchurch today sentenced Sila to life with a minimum of 17 years in jail."

But he is quite right - he will be out in 17.... you only do minimums in NZ...

Ironically, his name Sila, in Sanskrit or Pali means "Morality" or "Ethical Behaviour". Now that's ironic.
