This was the correct decision but nothing can wipe away the sheer horror of the incident.
I reckon this bloke will have shocking demons to deal with and a ghastly and unhappy life.

Notice the tabloid coverage - very much on the poor Mother's side - "My son died for nothing" with the subtext "so kill my husband too".
It never ceases to amaze me - the blindness of revenge.

Because the truth is not always as obvious as it seems. Nonetheless, you would think cases should only appear in the courts once psychiatric reports deem a person sane enough to face justice.
Still, at least the Cretan court has arrived at a verdict which would appear to be the correct one. Would I have have the same confidence in a British court in this day and age? Not on your life!

a man who jumps from a balcony with his two little children has lost his grip on reality and needs help.
the wife is right to feel ruined by it but revenge wont bring him back.
why do so many waste energy on hate?

Not at all surprised by the verdict.
Someone who jumps out of a hotel window with their children is clearly mentally unstable.
I feel sorry for all concerned in this tragic case.
