Wonder why?

One will never leave prison, the other one got 45 years. That's the killers not Down The Track and The Red Star.

And they'll spend the rest of their lives playing pool, watching TV, and being offered free University degree's they'll never do anything with. Justice? My arse.

Have you ever been in prison?

These guys will spend their time being looked after because that is what we do here. We do not believe in an "eye for an eye" no matter what temptation is put before us. We have a justice system that is as fair as it can be. Under your justice there would have been many people innocently executed. Surely one look at the Hillsborough debate (and now the Lawrence saga part 15) will tell you that even our police force can be institutionally bent and racist.

These people will never be set free again and they will most probably spend their time in reasonably solitary confinement. Particularly given that a high percentage of our armed services that struggle in civilian life end up in prison because we absolve ourselves of caring anymore.

Then of course we have the debate that what good would be served by executing these people due to their religious beliefs and the resultant trouble that would cause.

No matter you keep on commenting on the Daily Mail website.

You're sent to prison as a consequence of wrong-doing, so shorely first and foremost it should be a punishment.

If whilst inside you demonstrate that your rehabilitation would be of a benefit to society as a whole (when you get out) then your punishment should be supplemented with rehabilitation.

Those two savages deserve every minute of every day to be nothing but a living hell.

To a point you are right Czar and one i feel cannot be argued with but they say incarceration IS the punishment, you're not sent there for punishment. Me, i'd hang those two bastards.

They wanted to die and be martyrs, more punishment to keep em alive, under very harsh conditions.

Whatever colours Pitbull wears, deep down he'll always be a Tory boy, it's in the water in the schools you go to which carries an indelible marker for the rest of your life.
