It's heart breaking Niamh.Her poor family.

Boy A will be on the sex offenders register.

Judge continues order for nothing to identify boys that continues when they are over 18.:fist::fist:
These feckers will be out before 30 free to start families .

Yeah, especially Boy A, I just don't know how anyone who acted that sadistically cruel and un empathetic could ever be rehabilitated and why the risk should ever be taken to allow them back into society again putting innocent people in danger. I mean look at what happened with jamie Bulgers killers

Yep.I mean the judge even mentioned how easy they found it to deceive and manipulate...It's highly likely they will find it just as easy when their sentences are up for review.
This wasn't a fight that got out of hand..they spent time planning Anna's murder.
I know what they look like now..but have no idea what they will look like upon release.I know murderers get released all the time ...but there is something particuarlly callous about these two.

...some justice for Ana and her family with the life sentence...I’m not really sure what to think of the second sentence as it could be a release in 8years when it’s reviewed, if I’m understanding it properly...for the horrifically brutal way Ana was killed...doesn’t seem to fully fit justice being done...
