Good god, 35 years? It doesn't seem that long! I'm not sure he would be a danger to anyone nowadays and I'm sure he will be closely monitored.

No, @Toby. He was clearly mad as a hatter.

Yes. I would agree with that @Bambino......and again I honestly didn't realise it was 35 years ago....I admit to not following the story after he was convicted... I see he has been spending 17 days a month at his mothers house.....
