There are maniacs out there, to run a parallel, kenneth noye attacked and killed Stephen Cameron with a nine inch knife in a road rage incident in May 1996. noye had some pals, that helped him go on the run. An eye witness to this murder was a man named Alan Decabral, he gave evidence against noye and also turned down protection from the authorities. He was shot dead in his car sat outside the supermarket in the middle of the day surrounded by lots of people by a currently unknown assassin. This occurred 6 months after noye's conviction and incarceration.
Why is this raised here? david norris' father clifford was a smuggler involved with serious crime and illegal drug importation. I don't like it, I touched on it previous, but I can see why appearing to cooperate with authorities could be detrimental to norris and his immediates. I suspect had he coughed up against the other three (four but ones dead now) at the time of his trial he'd have been treated more leniently, this is the long game him and his legal team have played. They've used the law and seen out the time and by the technicalities, and by precedents set in other similar cases, he's due to be released sooner than later. I'm not happy about it, not one bit, and it means that poor Lawrence family have to have this nightmare dragged up, and be confronted with the freedoms allowed their sons killers to be afforded - by a media that thrive on their pain and torment.
dobson is on for parole next year? same whirlwind of fiasco to surround that? I have no sympathy for either, if they can I'd expect them to move abroad, because the intrusion of the media will mean they won't be able to so much as flick a cigarette butt without spotlight and furore. In fact they may end up with new identities because there's a chance this case has upset some to an extent that they may not be safe in society anymore.
