I do not usually subscribe to the “lock them up and throw away the key” lobby, but this time I think to be “detained at Her Majesty’s pleasure” ie indefinitely is what he deserved.

A teenager who threw a six-year-old boy from a 10th floor balcony at London's Tate Modern has been jailed for at least 15 years.
Jonty Bravery, 18, of Northolt, planned an attack and targeted young children last August, the prosecution said.
The victim suffered a bleed to the brain and was left with life-changing injuries.
At the Old Bailey, Mrs Justice McGowan said Bravery intended to kill and "almost killed that six-year-old boy"
