The newspapers and the press portray him as innocent, so how can we believe anything else...

Ian Huntley is currently at HMP Woodhill
The man charged with the murder of schoolgirls Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman has been admitted to hospital after an apparent suicide attempt.
Caretaker Ian Huntley, 29, was taken from HMP Woodhill in Buckinghamshire to Milton Keynes General Hospital at 0400 BST on Monday.

The Prison Service has confirmed a "serious incident of self-harm" which is believed to involve medication he was taking for depression.

The Prison Officers' Association has said one of its members saw him experience some kind of fit.


Holly Wells (left) and Jessica Chapman disappeared on 4 August

He is now believed to be in coma, in a stable but critical condition.

A thorough investigation is under way and ministers are being kept informed of developments.

Mr Huntley denies two charges of murder in relation to the Cambridgeshire schoolgirls, but admits a charge of conspiring to pervert the course of justice.

In April, Mr Huntley, from Soham, Cambridgeshire, appeared at the Old Bailey in London with his former girlfriend Maxine Carr.

Miss Carr, also of Soham, pleaded not guilty to two offences of helping an offender and a charge of attempting to pervert the course of justice.

The 10-year-old girls went missing on 4 August after being seen walking near their homes in Soham.


At risk

Their bodies were found two weeks later in a ditch near Lakenheath, Suffolk.

A trial date of 6 October was fixed at an earlier hearing.

Woodhill Prison, which has been open for 10 years, has a close supervision unit where prisoners can be kept under constant watch if they are considered to be at risk.

A prison source confirmed that Mr Huntley had been on suicide watch since his last court appearance in April.

Mr Huntley is understood to have been receiving medication for depression for some time, the source said.

Assuming he is fuond guilty:-

Keep the bastard alive and torture him every day for the rest of his pathetic life. Let the other inmates beat him and castrate him. When he is too old to be tortured burn him alive at the stake.

This is probably not enough for this piece of scum.

I did say 'if he is found guilty'. Everyone deserves a fair trial. However what happened to those girls was sick so the punishment should fit the crime.

However our prisons are like Butlins holiday camps so justice would never be done.

Tabloid Justice
