((It was a murder that shocked England and the rest of the world almost a
decade ago. 2 year-old James Bulger was kidnapped, tortured, and
murdered by two ten-year-old boys. But now -- an even greater shock for
some. The parole board in England has decided to let the two teenage
boys - John Venables and Robert Thompson - go free. The family of the
little boy killed claims two of Britains most notorious killers are
getting off easy.
Robert Makin - Ralph Bulgers Solicitor
He is extremely angry, frustrated, feels that the system, and quite understandably so, has not has proper regard to his interests, his views
and dealt with the matter in a fair and appropriate way.
Venables and Thompson were convicted in 1993 and have spent the last 8
years in a secure childrens unit. They recently met with a panel of psychiatrists and judges to determine if they were still a threat to
society. The parole board determined they were remorseful for their crimes and that releasing them with restrictions was appropriate.
Eithne Wallis - Natl Dir. of the Probation Service for England
Mr. Thompson and Mr. Venables will never be completely free. There are
standard conditions in any parole license which restricts what you can
do, where you can do it, who you can do it with.
In this case, the two teens will not be allowed to ever contact one another or any member of the victims family. They will also be given
new identities which will never be disclosed.
Lesley Halger - Friend of victims mother Denise Bulger James life was taken in a way that no one could imagine and for what?
But for the family of James Bulger - freedom with restrictions isnt a just sentence -- for taking away the life of a little boy.
