Wish Ian Huntley well - and cheer him up?
A guy who murdered two 10 year old girls - about 15 years ago - and still refuses to say why, or even how!
Most of us would choose more worthy recipients for our attention.
Perhaps, it might be more appropriate to ask Huntley to detail what actually occurred - to give the victims' families a degree of closure?

Concern for the sufferings and misfortunes of others - is a definition of compassion.
Huntley had none for his young/innocent victims, or their parents and families.
And refuses to say what happened, even though he will never be released.
Yes, compassion can be felt for most - but not those who perpetuate, daily, the sufferings of others.
Our role, if any, should be get him to cease - and do the decent and human thing...

I think, in the case of Ian Huntley, he actually couldn't feel compassion because of his own condition.
It is possible to show compassion and friendship to everyone though, isn't it?
We can accept the person without accepting the crime?

Frank Pakenham was well ahead of his time.
But it takes a great man to have compassion for child killers like Brady and Huntley.
Who tortured their young victims, lied about it, killed them, hid their bodies - and showed no remorse.
In addition, they - both (to this day) refuse to tell the families where the remains are.
To show compassion to those who (if they could) would do the same again - is a waste of a rare commodity.
Thankfully, our courts punish remorseless people...harder than the rest.
