TrIAl judge Saunders says that to give whole life tariffs to killers Sonnex and Farmer would be a terrible punishment and he is right.

It would be a terrible punishment for a terrible crime and would be fully deserved.

It’s a terrible shame Judge Saunders can’t understand the majority of people in the UK don’t want to have Sonnex and Farmer free and walking the streets, now, in 40 years time or ever.

In their case, life should mean life.
