    IMO think it's less about the sanctity of human life, more about the
    large number of mistakes.

    IWHT that that would require quite a lot of sugar to make a
    (substantial) difference, but I'm not going to experiment.

    I agree that there should be a duty of care regarding prisoners but I
    think it's a shame the attempt to slash his throat didn't succeed in
    killing him.

    If he gets the reported £100k will he be expected to put the money
    away to pay for his new identity when he's eventually released from
    jail or will the taxpayer have to foot the bill for that one leaving
    him with a nice little cash reserve?

    Especially given that the sugar would be added after boiling, so would
    actually have reduced it's temperature, not raised it. Whether it
    makes any difference to its stickiness i couldn't say. In any case I
    rinsed it all of the face within seconds - the only bits that were
    actually burned were the chest and neck where it soaked into clothing
    that took a little longer to remove.

    I was so nervous, on intake, that when someone asked what I was in for
    I appeared to be joking about it. This was then by way of a welcoming
    committee.

    Your choice, but don't come running to us with lawsuits if you don't like it
    or get injured. And you can sign this disclaimer stating it was your choice
    too.

    sorry, poor attempt at crap humour. You did tell me all about it at
    Chimay a few years back.

    Certainly, although the mistakes could be vastly reduced.

    Perhaps the answer is for prisoners to contribute to the cost of their
    incarceration according to their means. A sort of reverse benefit system
    that favours the tax payer. How novel.

    "des in all probability sticking around for another two months"
    People like that are usually put on Rule 43 for their own protection and
    are locked away from other inmates! should they then be attacked, then
    the prison are fully responsible

    If they choose to refuse it, it is the inmates own responsibility as
    to their awareness of attack from other inmates!!

    To a Lesser degree!!!

    Regards.

    Surely the whole point of locking someone up is to remove some of their
    rights? I think he should be allowed to sue, but no way should he get
    legal aid to do so. And if he wins, the money should be seized as the
    proceeds from crime[1] & given to CICA.

    [1] He wouldn't get the money if he wasn't in prison, & he wouldn't be
    in prison if he hadn't been found guilty[2].

    [2] If he's subsequently found innocent, he gets the money back along
    with any other compensation due.

    Boiling syrup I can understand but that needs quite a lot of sugar.
    Sounds grim :(

    He'll get out eventually. It's not as if he robbed a train so he can't
    be considered a proper criminal.

    I agree with you to a point, but I don't think the state assumes all
    responsibility for inmates being attacked by other inmates. Your point
    about an inmate murdering another illustrates this perfectly, the person
    committing the murder faces the legal ramifications of that. Unless the
    prison authorities have ignored credible evidence of a threat, I don't
    see how they can be liable.

  17. You can make a claim against the state funded criminal compensation
    scheme .

    Ironically

    If your a sex offender and your infomation is released under Sarahs
    law and the recipient of the infomation then reveals this to another
    and you suffer because of this (which is ilegal to do) you could have
    a claim against both that person and the state as they have a duty of
    care to you when realesing such infomation .

    I can see the lawyers rubbing the hands together already

    Ironically again

    If the revealation puts the sex offenders life in danger the state
    will do as they have with Venables and give you a new identity and
    Police protection


    Its right what they say the Laws an Ass

    I am aware of the concept, but I don't agree that any harm that comes to
    an inmate while incarcerated indicates a failure of that duty on the
    part of the authorities. If they have not taken reasonable steps to
    ensure safety of "known" threats, then maybe so, but unless there is a
    regime of zero interaction of inmates, then they cannot foresee and
    prevent every attack. As someone else has already said, due to the
    demographic, prison is a dangerous place.

  19. Huntley as a child killer will be a target of attack has been
    attacked before and has attempted suicide , he is deemed as a
    vulnerable prisoner requireing protection an constant supervision

  20. That statement alone indicates that prisoners such as Huntley are at
    extreme risk of harm because of the nature of the crimes committed
