Guilty

So Ian Huntley is guilty of the murders of Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman. I’m glad that he didn’t get away with it. Given the news reports it seemed obvious that he was guilty, but it took the jury 4 days to decide. Clearly the evidence wasn’t as clear cut as the media seemed to be suggesting. In some ways, I’m glad that the jury took their time. It means that they weren’t swayed by media reporting and it can be seen that they made their own minds up. Good for them. Let’s hope that Mr Huntley isn’t let out of prison for a very very long time… his history would suggest that it would be bad.
