Pc killer wins life term appeal


Pc killer wins life term appeal

A former US marine who murdered a policeman has won an appeal against his "whole life" prison sentence...

The American, 42, was told he will now serve a minimum of 37 years in jail
.

Given his age, and the fact that he must serve a minimum 37 years before being considered for release, in other words, the Parole Board can decide he must serve longer, this is really a hollow victory and a waste of time and money. If he doesn't die in prison he will be so old and doddery by the time he gets released he will probably wish he was dead.
