Pretty much as far as I'm aware, there were some photos found, a couple of his cousins testified saying Eric and Lyle told them about it when they were younger and also, other men have come forward with allegations against the dad as well (he was involved with promoting a boy band and it was members of this band)

I see
But it was basically an execution so you can see why it brings mixed feelings

If we look at it from the justice side they are murderers

Are you really suggesting that two people who are capable of executing two other others ( their own parents ) are not a risk to the public !??

I'm suggesting that two people who killed their abusers are not the average type of killer and are unlikely to kill again yes.

I don't consider child rapists and child rapist coverers innocent members of the public

Anyone is capable of killing if you push their buttons long enough.

That's my belief.

To be fair, they were adults when they killed their parents, they did have other options available to them.

I don't for a second, understand the american legal system and they have had some very serious criminals that get executed and others that seem to get a pat on the head and told not to do it again.

Also, we need to remember that America is basically a banana republic now, your guilt or innocence is based on your ability to pay or what dirty details you have on Trump

I'm not saying they should have gotten away with no sentence at all. I just think 30 years is long enough considering the circumstances.

i was just reading in the news today that anyone that gets sentenced to a year won't serve time if the government get their way and that prisoners will be able to earn early release after completing a third of their sentence. Soon i would imagine they just wont bother sending anyone to jail. Thats the UK for you
