They shouldn't be given a choice whether to appear for sentencing or not. They should be forced to be there every time, in chains if they have to. The justice system in the uk is so weak 🙄

How can they now not attend court???? Whats going on in this country? Arrest him and sit him there!!!

He cannot have more rights that the person he murdered, once you do that you lose your right!!!

A minimum sentence of 33 years -- assuming it's not appealed and reduced -- would mean this lowlife thug would be up for parole at the age of 89. If there's justice, he'd be kept in solitary confinement.

This is why Capital punishment should be brought back to Britain if this was Britain ?
As far too many evil murders nowadays and this guy tried so slyly to sneak out of such deserves that .
