London Bridge Attacker Khuram Butt And Michael Adebolajo, One Of Fusilier Lee Rigby’S Killers Are Among The 80 Of The 193 People Convicted Of Terrorism Offences Between 2007 And 2016 Eligible For Release From Jail This Year, Should We Be Concerned?

Yes, I said so at 12.40.

[youngmafbog]

Someone made a mistake, so what?

As has been said above highly unlikely that the real serious concerns will even start to get considered, even so releasing anyone convicted of these crime shas to be a nightmare for security services. On the other hand of course they could lead security services to the front door of those who have not yet come to their attention.

[Jackdaw33]

The very suggestion that Ajebolado could be released after such a relatively short time defies belief and would lead to public outrage.

[youngmafbog]

Not that liberal leaning parole office would care.

//Someone made a mistake, so what?//

When it comes to our security and reports on parole hearings, there is no room for mistakes.

The question is - why is one of Lee Rigby’s killers even up for parole? I thought they both got life.

[Mamyalynne]

That's not what the article says, they aren't.

[Baldric]

They did,
On 19 December 2013, Michael Adebolajo and Michael Adebowale were found guilty of the murder of Lee Rigby. The judge, Mr Justice Sweeney, said that he would pass sentence after a key appeal court ruling on the use of whole life terms. On 26 February 2014, both men were sentenced to life imprisonment. Adebolajo was given a whole life order excluding the possibility of parole, and Adebowale, the younger of the two, was given a minimum term of 45 years in prison.

[ummmm]

They did so don't you think the reporting is wrong? I mean they've reported about a dead person being released.

[Mamyalynne]

Five senior figures in Al-Muhajiroun, //whose former members include London Bridge attacker Khuram Butt and Michael Adebolajo, one of Fusilier Lee Rigby’s killers, //are expected to be released from prison by the end of the year.

It's the five senior figures who are due to be potentially released.

[ToraToraTora]

well I expect SP will be waiting outside to put them up in his Utopia.

er I am sorry as a newpaper reader - they have

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2018/06/03/lee-rigby-killer-michael-adebolajo-says-sorry-murder/

normal day on AB then

what are we 'worrying' about ?
they did the crime and have done the time

we have tried indeteminate sentences and they didnt work
hey so lets - - - try them again ! and see if they work this time !

They rather obviously come into the category of POIs ( persons of interest ) and that gives the police wide powers ( basically to sit in their living room if they want )

we imprison peole for what they have done
not what they might do
that is imprisonment wivvart trial and we first legislated against that a long time ago
( clue - runnymede - 1215 and habeas corpus 1689)

yeah yeah a thousand ABers squeal - then we will all be nurdered in our beds!

[ToraToraTora]

"they did the crime and have done the time" - yeah all round good guy eh PP? What an April!

[fiction-factory]

I agree with Mamyalynne that the newspaper article has been misinterpreted by AOG. As has been established here, Butt is dead so is not going to be back on the streets, and Michael Adebolajo is not eligible for release this year. Nevertheless it is of course worrying that some of these terrorists were given such short sentences that there is even consideration of parole for any of them at this stage. I don't believe MI5 can keep track of these people closely enough. However unless we lock them up for ever (and I would find it hard to disagree) the issue of parole will arise at some stage unless they die in prison

[naomi24]

It’s a poorly worded article but that shouldn’t overshadow what’s happening here. These people are our enemies. Freeing them is madness.

[ludwig]

// Adebolajo and his sidekick have never shown a grain of remorse for their sick, evil crime.//

// er I am sorry as a newpaper reader - they have //

Have they said they're sorry? Ah bless. It's an outrage that they're still inside. How can they possibly prove they won't try and cut anyone else's head off unless we let them out?

[ummmm]

They aren't getting out. One got a whole life tariff and the other got 45 years.

[Jackdaw33]

In the days when Albert Pierrepoint and Harry Allen were in office this question would not have arisen.

[mushroom25]

//One got a whole life tariff //
he did. but under article 3, that's not set in stone because it's not kosher for "whole life" to mean no possibility of release. so it will be reviewed at some stage. part of the reasoning for the whole life tariff was Mr Adebolajo's perceived in-rehabilitation. since when he's renounced his jihadi moniker and apologised. ok his release is unlikely - but never say never.....

[NoMercy]

Saying "sorry" doesn't equate to feeling genuine remorse and shame.

They're savages. They will always be savages.
