Death Penalty?

[KateLMead]

Philpotts, I would take great deight in putting him on Pathway!!
Dirty stinking excuse for a man.. The poor women in his life controlled, terrorised and abused..
The man is an animal, were it a dog it would be put down without hesitation.. Time we started making the punishment fit the crime..

I have just been reading that his law representatives have been telling the judge that they were good parents who fed and cared for their children and gave them a happy home!

I can only hope the judge is not taken in by this rubbish.

Rodo he has got way with his crimes so far, sentenced to five years following leaving a youngster for dead following his manic attack on her stabbling her 27 times..
British Justice? He was out in three!! Our judicial system is a farce and lawyers who represent his dog should be struck off!!

With luck he might just hang himself when in prison..

I think that defence lawyers should, on many occasions, be
charged with attempting to perverse the course of justice.

They will say anything to get their clients off, even when they
know they are guilty.

It's time our antiquated legal system was changed.

The death penalty? Yes, let's bring it back. We can well do
without those who qualify.

Anything goes with these lawyers, there are those who are straight however there are far to many who are not..

I have just watched Newsnight and the problem is clear.... those charged with child protection and controlling benefits are useless. They are part of the problem if anything.

People like Philpott should not be paid to go on the baby production line, but there is nothing and nobody to stop them.

Child benefits should stop at two, have more and they are up to you.

Could not agree more Frank..

I agree - but then people like Philpott will 'work' the system, and have two 'kids' here, and two 'kids' there. Would it be two kids per person, or two kids per relationship, or what?

Re the death penalty: I'd rather he lives to see just how much people hate what he's done, and actually what a little man he is. I'd rather he lived in the hope he realises what he's done - not from selfish 'poor me', but from a place where he's on his knees with a broken heart from a heartfelt knowledge of the harm he's caused.

I do not think imprisonment will change the animal.. He will find plenty of doggers to oblige his cravings whilst in there.... Any one who has suffered violence or mental cruelty in a marriage or relationship knows what these maniacs are capable of, and the womana slave is a helpless pawn unless she has the strength like the other woman in the relationship to walk away, few do, and if they do the fear of being persued never leaves them.. Their self esteem is nil, shattered, they feel worthless and unbelievably they think they love these animals, and the women are damaged before they get involved with the pervs, and they remain damaged for the rest of their lives unless they are able to come to terms with what has happened to them and close those horrible chapters.

I've read numerous articles and threads on this subject. What astounds me most is how people are seeking to blame the benefit system. Imo, that's a cop out and simply makes excuses for an arrogant, controlling man. Benefits didn't make him stab an ex girlfriend, go out dogging, beat up taxi drivers or burn his children to death.
If he had went out daily to work do you honestly believe this would have made him a nicer person who respected women and saw them as equals? I certainly don't believe that-Philpott's character was deeply flawed and this was what made him act like he did and subsequently led to the deaths of his children.
