This Man Turned His Life Around In Prison

[MattyMattyChooChoo]

Didn't a 75 year old woman commit murder in London last month?

So the victims life meant nothing ?

This man has obviously turned his life around. He has been able to even impact the inmates around him as much as that is possible. I believe he deserves the chance to get out and share his story. You never know what life he can touch and perhaps make a difference. Just because he committed one murder doesn't make him a serial killer. Furthermore, God forgives us shouldn't we forgive him and allow him to move forward?

[Isaac-Saxxon]

The Bible would dictate that someone that commits murder should be dispatched by a family member or the law. I do not doubt that this man repented and that is great for his eternal soul but he will only find that out from the eternal judge.

So are you saying that every person that commits murder should be put to death?

Tall tree, very short rope.

This man however was not sentenced to death. With that in mind, why should my tax dollars pay for him to sit around in prison? I believe we need to go back to chain gangs, prisoners growing their own food or they don't eat, hard labor, etc.

He should have been if he did the crime. String him up and spend no tax dollars. If gets out the government will still have to pay for him. Yes he can still hold a gun.

If true, I am glad he turned his life around. That might save his soul. I'm glad he has been able to impact other inmates and that should remain his calling if he is truely repentent for the murder he committed. He can share his story all he wants behind bars. I don't know how the first amendment applies to murderers, but whatever. I hope he gets a book deal and gives the money to the victims. I hope he does touch other inmates lives and make a difference. Maybe he can serve as a model for other inmates. He is not just in prison as punishment, but also to serve as an example to the general public to make people think twice before committing murder. I do hope God and the survivors forgive him. Forgiveness is one thing but restoring all freedom is another. The recidivism rate for violent criminals is not good, and judges have a responsibility to keep murderers off the streets.
