Pity they didn't drag him up from the cells by his ears and make him stand there to listen to his sentencing!
a depressing two days where parents and lovers told of their losses
nothing to be cock a hoop about

yes I didn't realise they could refuse to come out the cell. What's happened to the guards these days?

"because he was under the age of 21 at the time of the murders, the law forbids the imposition of a whole life order, meaning a life sentence with no minimum term. " - ok minimum term 100 years, simples, next!
A great man once said something akin to "Gawd help us, the brains trust are in".

Odd how things come back to haunt one.
Glad about the sentence he received - but things like this show up the stupidity of some laws. I, too, was more than surprised that he wasn't dragged into court to hear the sentence. Apparently he also refused to listen to the families' statements as to how they have been affected. Why don't they play them into his cell on a never-ending loop? I'm sure it's possible and at some point he would have to hear them.
What a horrible look on his face in the picture. So cold. So uncaring. If anyone looked at me like that I would be truly alarmed. I guess that was what he intended to convey when it was taken.

.... and yes I know it's probably not true but the idea is valid.
// Pershing not only had absolute faith in America’s military prowess, he had little regard for British and French commanders who’d spent years sending their soldiers “over the top” in useless slugging matches with well-armed Germans.//

the article is worf a read ( to use AB English)
I am not sure which point is being argues
Pershing refused to unite with the British and French and the Chancellor reported to the Reichstag ( er yes that chancellor ) - "Germany cd never lose the war whilst the allies were so disunited"

The article does NOT recite that Pershing and his armies had then to learn all the lessons the ALlies had learnt painfully - chop chop ! - [including unified action and going over the top] - the first contact - was it St Mihiel was a widely predicted disaster

"Pershing had absolute faith in America’s military prowess, " and they too were wasted

there is nothing god like in american commanders
look that they did in Vietnam !
// and yes I know it's probably not true but the idea is valid.//

great - the argument is invalid but the solution which can be arrived at by other means remains valid

AB as alice in wonderland
Perhaps its apocryphal,but i saw this guy,his mother and his brother were getting around £1000 a week in dole money and benefits.If true,no wonder we have thousands of(refugees)economic migrants trying to reach our shores every day.
It's good that he wasn't old enough to be given a so called 'life' sentence where he'd probably be out on parole after a few years. This way he stays inside.
