DNA is fabulous isn't it jingle DH was telling me of arrest of bloke who committed crimes in I think 1968 and has been charged to-day,you will need to look for it in media.

They're going to get them this time. How marvellous is DNA?!!!

And somehow it helps if other people express similar feelings to how you are feeling. Especially over something like this.

Greatnan, you were probably not on Gransnet when I first posted about this, and had no replies. I'm glad people do care.

His mum is probably a gran by now. A thread with a bit of support would be good. IMHO

I agree too! It goes without saying really - so maybe that's why no-one has. I have been really irritated for years by the swaggering of these two men and the others they were initially charged alongside. If what was published in the papers around the time of the first trial is to be believed, they were responsible for lots of drug related crimes as well. It strikes me as sad that the cockiest one of the lot isn't being tried now.

Jingle, it is not always possible for some of us to read every post every day, and I think it is uneasonable of you to suggest we don't care.
In fact, the continuing racism, homophobia and sexism of some of the police concerns me greatly, but other than saying 'Yes, it is terrible, I hope they get life without parole' there does not seem to be a lot anybody can usefully say.

I saw Mrs Lawrence's photograph in the morning paper,the poor woman looks haunted I really feel for her and her Husband,I truely hope things go well for them this time,such a waste of a young life.

Thank you for replying em. No-one else care at all?

I suppose you think it doesn't concern you.

It does.

Yes Jingle it's outrageous that they've got away with it this long. Let's hope that mother and father see justice done this time.

I hope these b-----s get thrown in jail at last. (Trial starts today, if anyone's interested)
