Opinion Why not death for Paedophiles?

The convicted paedophile Steven Leisk, who was jailed last week for the murder of nine-year-old Aberdeen boy Scott Simpson, has agreed to meet lawyers acting for the dead boy's parents who want to question him about aspects of the crime.

I don't understand why the parents want to tortures themselves so. This paedophile deserves a long drop from a short rope.

Why waste tax payers money on such people? It would be better spent on schools, hospitals or stopping lobbyist sleaze in Westminster.

It appears our 'morals' have clouded our common sense - there are times where a life for a life is needed.

This is one such case.
