So life can mean life
I posted in May 2008 band March 2010 about the Yorkshire Ripper, Peter Sutcliffe, and his attempts to get out of jail having served 30 years for murder & attempted murder.
The High Court has finally decided that in his case life does mean life & he should never be released. He had appealed against a decision two years ago that he should never be released having attempted to murder 2o women between 1975 & 1980 (he succeeded 13 times).
I expect the European Court of Human Rights will probably have something to say on the matter when his legal team take the case there later this year.
