This story also says a lot about the prison system if 2 ten year olds cant be rehibilitated.

Because Venables and the other one who no one ever discusses were the youngest convicted killers on record at the time.

It continues to grab headlines because of Venables actions well into adulthood and some of the courts ridiculous decisions in regards to him.

Also, because of the campaigning and fighting his mum has not stopped doing for 24 years.
