I'm getting terribly annoyed by use of words in a stupid way. Like 110%. And "rape is rape". Using language for morons. Those who simply do not have fully functioning brains.
If someone has a life sentence, they have a life sentence. Oops, sorry, I did it myself. It is quite impossible to serve more than one life sentence.
Talking of the parole board, which we were indirectly, when I was granted first parole, it was unheard of in the prison community. I refused to admit guilt (because I was - and remain - innocent). So I did no courses to improve my offending behaviour (as there had been none).
I always suspected that the Establishment KNEW I was innocent and, as a result, gave me first parole half way through my sentence. It was their way of apologising.
I think I know the case you are pointing at, JK - what strikes me as particularly "odd" is that someone who has 13 life sentences is out on day release !!!!!
