He doesn't deserve protection.

[LaLaLand]

This is ridiculous!

[She told the Daily Star: ‘I didn’t have a clue it was illegal. What are you going to do… prosecute me for posting a picture? I didn’t realise. I am not au fait with the law.’]

Typical of Her

Not a free legal lawyer

Why should he be protected though, especially as he’s gone on to commit more crimes since. Even just hearing the name “Jon Venables” sends shivers down my spine

[Niamh.]

awww James Bulger was such a cute little kid though, seeing that picture of him breaks my heart everytime

It doesn't really matter if he should or shouldn't be protected, though...if it's illegal to share the pictures it's illegal. That said, I would have thought you would only be able to be charged with something if it could either be proved that you knew it was illegal to share them, or if you refused to remove them when told to.

It's surely unrealistic to expect everyone to be aware of every individual whose photographs can't be shared .

Just because its the Law.

[Nicky91]

never liked Tina Malone myself honestly, she was coming over extremely annoying to me on celeb masterchef back when she did that

[GoldHeart]

What a world we live in where you can be punished just for retweeting about a evil sicko yet he gets protected !!! while you're treated like a criminal, apparently it's not just Malone anyway,other people are doing it .

That's so called Justice for you . Both of those sadistic killers should of stayed LOCKED UP ! , Venables keeps breaking the law and continues to be protected with new identities . What kind of crazy BS is that ! How many more chances is he going to get !.

I guess what she will have to do is prove in a court of law she was unaware it was illegal. But also I was thinking that it should be the first poster charged, not the retweeter. Think of how fast Twitter works and how many retweets something could get before police intervene. Then think of the amount of court and jail time that could bog up the system. It's a slippery slope imo

[bitontheslide]

ignorance is not and never has been an excuse, and its been stated over and over that no-one world wide is allowed to publish anything that could identify them. I don't believe she is being honest anyway.

That said, i think when Venables committed his last crime, he should have lost his protection, and his status should be challenged in court.

Alright, but I live on the other side of the world and had never heard of this case until the Oscar nomination for the short film... I've not seen the film and have only read a couple of articles regarding the media around it right now.

If I had retweeted it... which I would love to debate the concept of tweeting being publishing... am I culpable to?

Ignorance of the law isn't an excuse but in this case, being unaware of the fact that posting images of these specific people was in violation of a court ruling would be an excuse (it would only be an offense if she refused to remove the tweet after being made aware). Sharing pictures of people in general isn't illegal, and it's not realistic to expect all individuals to be aware of all protected images. It's sort of like copyright, I suppose. You don't get into legal trouble for posting something that you didn't know was copyrighted, but you do if someone makes you aware and tells you to remove it and you refuse.

Though I imagine it's likely that in this case even if she didn't know initially, plenty of people would have commented on the tweet to poiny out that posting the image isn't allowed, and she still didn't remove it.

Once you commit such a evil horrific crime , you should lose all rights ! . He doesn't deserve any protection ! . People like that are beyond rehabilitation !! . He continues to break the law and all he gets is a slap on the wrist & a new identify , I hate injustice ! .

[Kazanne]

I think anyone knows it is against the law to show pictures of them,I am sure Tina would have known this, but it is widely known what Venables looks like as when he re offended the last time there were pics all over FB, they have done well to keep hidden for so long,but not sure how long that will last,they have already been breathing too long imo .How ironic if she does time in prison when they never did,that's British Justice for you.

it is a world wide injunction, which I didn't even think was possible, so I guess you would be culpable, i wouldn't test it personally

[Marsh.]

All you ever hear about is Venables.

I take it the other lad disappeared into anonymity upon his initial release since?

Not sure if credible but remember reading he has a wife and 2 kids and a stable life now and works etc

It's good to know people can change I suppose but the poor child he murdered will never get to do those things which is sad.

I kept wondering what happened to the other kid as well . Clearly he must of kept quiet & kept his head down which is an understatement after the horrific disturbing crime he commit with his mate ! .

How anyone can have a relationship with either of them baffles the mind !. James will never grow up ,never get married . His life taken at such a young age it's so distressing .

From what I've read they were very different from the beginning with him being quite "popular" with both other kids and staff while incarcerated, very clever, cheerful, amiable and disarming. There are actually strong indications of some sort of sociopathy in that, and I've seen it suggested that it's very likely the kidnap and murder was instigated by him and Venables was susceptible to influence and actually less aware of what he was actually doing (potential learning disabilities). Venables on the other hand shows clear indications of being permanently traumatised and affected (hence reoffending).

It was originally thought Thompson was the leader of those two, I did hear one was married,I think it is Thompson,but there were also rumours that he was gay so I'm not sure, I hope she knows his past,but I doubt it,as it turns out it seems to be Venables that is a repeat offender and it was promised that if they broke thier release conditions ,they would go straight to jail no questions asked,yet this scumbag has reoffended more than once and will be set free again at some point,there was several rules broken with those two when they were released,as for the pics they are easy to get if you want them and as for Tina Malone she must have known what she was doing ,I don't like her but can't say I blame her.

She looks like she's done about ten years already.
