I wouldn't think they would parole him after 3... but they might for medical reasons...

Oh yes, medical reasons. I remember when a former Chairman of Guinness was freed from prison because he had Alzheimers. And to this day, he's the only person ever to have recovered from the disease. Now he says he never had the disease at all and yet they've not dragged him back to the pokey. Funny that.

It's all got to do with how much justice you can afford. And I say that as a lawyer.

To be fair he'll likely be dead in 5 anyway. But yeah if he was a younger man, 3 years for that would be a joke.

I think because of his age he should be made to pay financially to his victim.

If my understanding is right, that could still be pursued by the victim but would be a civil case for financial compensation separate to (but obviously bolstered by) the criminal prosecution.

I know but I suppose it's the principle of it, he's got away with it his whole life, he shouldn't be just let off easy because he's old now
