I get that it's news, but how horrific it must be for the poor family to not only to be going through this, but for it also to be constantly broadcast everywhere. I can't begin to imagine how they must feel.

Glad he’s alive so he doesn’t get the easy way out, absolute ****

You could argue he has an easy way out in a life in prison here he will be fed and watered and looked after 24/7 with health care at taxpayers expenses. 

Prisons are full to bursting with criminals and rapists let out after serving less than half of their sentences. Where prisons are like holiday camps when they should be like north Korean work camps. Where prisoners have easy access to drugs and other illegal stuff that is so easy to get. Prison is no longer the deterrent it used to be and our justice system is an absolute joke. It's no wonder the victims of crime feel constantly let down.

It's great that he has been found, but can't believe that Sky needed the urge to have a video of him being stretchered away.

Yeah but he will also probably get absolutely battered. Like those fellas in Coalville the other year who killed a girl. One got strangled to death in prison.

WTAF??

 

Book yourself in, sunshine. It's a great place to be. 

 

Oh, and expect to get beaten up, slashed, ass raped, spat at, pissed on. Have excrement smeared over your food and your life made generally hell.

Unfortunately, that sounds like a few mental health units too..

Sadly, not that far from the truth. Particularly those that are seriously failing their patients. 

 

To be fair, Bradgate MHU has been through the damning CQC assessment and subsequently has improved. It's still not very welcoming or pleasant place to be but, on the occasions we've visited our daughter, there does seem to be a more supportive and less dismissive approach to patients.

 

From a personal perspective, we have had cause to raise concerns about our daughter's contact with us which is quite disturbing in it's content. We get told our worries will be passed on to the Consultant. We keep asking for a call back from the psych's , but we never get one.

That's good.

 

Do you think the issues with this tend to be recruiting the wrong people?

 

Hope she's getting as better as she can be.

Thank you. She's presenting as "well" to her psych's but her contact with us is still very extreme and worrying.

 

Yes, recruitment of those who really didn't seem experienced or bothered about those in their care was definitely a problem. When she was in the secure unit, the staff seemed much more professional and experienced which helped give us faith. On the "general" MH wards, not so much.

Rees-Mogg is going to do a reality TV show with his wife and family.

 

FFS.

 

Talk about inviting ridicule.

How on earth can Alec Baldwin be on trial for firing what he thought - and was told - was a pretend gun? 

 

What an odd place the US can be at times. 

The prosecution case is that it wasn't a pretend gun but a gun capable of firing live rounds.

 

The prosecutor said "he held the gun, cocked the gun and pulled the trigger". 

 

The prosecution case is that he, or weapon handler would have known it could hold live rounds.

 

The question surely is, who loaded the gun with a live round and did they know it was a live round?

Yeh I’m of the same opinion. 
 

It’s one of those things where even if he is convinced by the technical letter of the law, it seems immoral to convict someone of that. 18 months in prison seems crazy to me. 

 

I’m sure it’s ruined his life enough having to live with the knowledge he accidentally killed someone.
