I'll agree three years is in no way near enough, but I can't stand it when people are so quick to pipe up with knee-jerk reactions to these types of stories.

Rehabilitation is important, as are human rights. As disgusting and foul as some crimes are, it's important that the mental health of these criminals are looked into not only so that they are not a danger to themselves or others, but in order for us to try and understand more about the causes of these types of crimes. It's all very well and good to start screaming and wailing about 'banging them up' and 'throwing away the key', but there's more to it than that I'm afraid.
