]]> So Glad The BBC Now Believes That Prison Works…. https://www.theagedp.com/?p=4433 Sat, 07 Jan 2012 23:04:19 +0000 http://www.theagedp.com/?p=4433 The whole UK media, spearheaded naturally by the BBC, has been in maximum emotional overdrive with the Lawrence case.

Fine…..

It was a vicious murder and two men have been sent to prison – indeed there is already pressure to lengthen the sentences even though, according to the law, since they were juveniles when the crime was committed, they had to be sentenced as juveniles.
So, all the great and the good at the BBC are agreed, hurl them into the slammer and throw away the key.
