I seem to have pipped Sticks to the post on this one.http://www.msn.co.uk/news/Default.asp&&HL=HAROLD%20SHIPMAN%20DIES&CP=65001&CE=h02]read (http://g.msn.co.uk/UK5/37515.13?[url) it here[/url]

I really don't want to comment on it much. However I do find it strange that multiple killer such as him and Fred West seem to be able to achieve this in the days of electronic surveillance in what must be a fairly specialised high security section of our prisons.

Makes you wonder how it is possible for a high profile prisoner to do something like this.

Good riddance!

Ditto, Janette - although I do feel for the families who are left without an explanation from him as to exactly why their poor relatives were murdered.

He took the easy way out.

Had he lived!! There is no evidence to suggest he would have ever told "Why" he killed. So i don't think anything has been lost in that respect. Any way do the insane ever have a reason other than being insane.

Before any says's "Oh but he has not been classified insane". Would any sane person commit such a crime.!!!

When I hear so called medical experts classify certain criminal as being sane I would question the sanity of the experts.

The fact that he has commited suicide "presumably that is" has saved tha nation the cost of keeping him.
