Sophie Lancaster Killer Has Sentenced Reduced
/ News / 29/10/2008 17:30pm
News has broken that one of the two killers responsible for the death of Sophie Lancaster have had their sentence reduced by the Court Of Appeal.
16 year old attacker Ryan Herbert has seen his jail sentence reduced by 9 months, meaning he will serve a sentence of 15 years and 6 months.
All other attackers had their appeals rejected meaning that Brendan Harris (18 years), Danny and Joseph Hulme (a minimum of 5 years and 10 months) and Daniel Malett (4 years and 4 months) will all serve their original jail sentences.
The horrific attack occured in August of last year and involved Sophie Lancaster being beaten to death by five boys aged between 15-17 while her boyfriend Robert Maltby was also put in a coma.







Dont send them to jail, put them in the middle of the wall of death or a devildriver pit. See if they come out alive. Fuckin cunts
They deserve to be killed and nothing less, they are filthy scum
This is disgraceful indeed! If anything his sentence should’ve been increased. Fuckin’ fascist chavs!
There sentences should have been increased life with know chance of ever being released . They knew what they where doing they should have accepted there punishment , really they should have been given a leathal injection so they can`t ever hurt anyone else that would have been justice for Sophie`s death
yet more proof that modern day Britain is a laughing stock. How can someone who knew exactly what they were doing in beating Sophie to death just for being different even dare consider appeal?
If the British Judicial system is this easy on murderers maybe its about time someone treated these three b*st*rds to their own medicine and put them 6 foot under.
This is fucking disgusting. She was killed because of being a goth and for protecting her boyfriend. They should be locked in a fucking prison and have the fucking key thrown away. This is fucking disgusting!!!!
what a fucking joke, proves how shite this country really is, fuck this, just all head out and fucking slay the lot of them if our “justice system” wont do fuck all; CUNTS!
Putting them into a pit is easy, do something more original, such as putting them in the middle of a firefight in Iraq without and clothes on and targets painted on them.
Hate to say it, but they won’t serve those sentences. With current guidelines and the way the system worms, realistically the *most* they’ll serve is half what’s laid down. Potentially as little as a quarter and statistically about a third.
I’m up with stoning the bastards to death. Slowly. But unfortunately we have this whole human rights thing, regardless of the fact that these filth have taken away those rights – permanently – from one lovely person.
All I can say is that I’m glad that only one sentence was reduced, and that only by a token amount. And full marks to the original judge for handing down a very lengthy sentence instead of listening to the bleeding-heart crap from the defence lawyer. He also took into consideration the fact that the daft fuckers sat there grinning through the whole trial obviously showing not one iota of the remorse their counsel was trying to state that they felt.
Wankers.
It’s sad to think that we live in a society, where little fuckin’ punks can do something like this and not be punished to the full extent of the law. God how i wish public stoning was still legal. R.I.P Sophie \m/
Bunch of fucking fucks! They deserve the death penalty. Nothing less.
Disgusting. They shouldn’t reduce sentences like this, it makes a mockery of the whole justice system. Luckily it was only one that got reduced. But still, that’s one too many.
The law system in this country is ridiculous. There never gonna feel regret for what they done. Or know the pain that they have caused. Fucking idiots!
haha, now what a suprise eh. bastards. they should all be there for life!!
The justice system has gone to the dogs.
I’m sorry, that’s insulting to dogs.
i hope them dirty fucking chavs get fucking arse raped in wat little time they have left in prison n then die on their way out. fucking cowards
chemical testing,thats wot them twats should get. why test all that crap on little fluffy cute rabbits when you got them cunts sat there,no use to socoity wot so ever.make gud use of them,test stuff on them.like cancer drugs and wot not.the world could yet be a better place.oh just to make it that tad better,cut off their fucking eye lids then the bastards have to watch.everything.
Put em in a room with no windows or doors and please just give me….5 MINUTES ALONE!! Wankers!
Thats awful I hope they go to hell
gaaa
Fucks stupid twits
just wait till they do get out they will be screwed till death and there after by Sophie and Robert. I fully support the S.O.P.H.I.E campain till thy death
take care to all of you people
keep on the metal and goth faith
They should be placed within the heart of a desert where Satan Himself will Bring forth the wrath of the sun and the hate that fills our hearts for the sake of this beloved Sophie.
This country & the law is getting worse day by day….
Fuckin Bastards!!!!!
Death penalty agreed!!!
What an absolute disgrace if I were that girls family I would be waiting on them to get out! bastards
this fucking sucks if those chav cunts go round killing people then they should serve the death penalty!
i am completely sickened by the way sophie was treated and i wear the s.o.p.h.i.e proudly!!!
stupid fuckin cunts!!!
hope they rot in hell, if there was one
For fucks sake, why should this be allowed to happen? The scary shit is, theres probably a lot more people out there who are happy to do exactly the same thing again. They’re too fucking soft on them, it’s not teaching them any lessons. When someone kills someone else, they should be given a life sentence. And not meaning “20 years” they should just be left to rot in their cell.
It bothers me that this can go on at all. I’ve been a life-long metal fan; and whilst my clothing wouldn’t suggest this, I have a feeling of total disgust towards people being persecuted for wanting to exhibit their musical preference. By the same token, I don’t see the appeal in wearing the standard Kappa/Adidas/Nike uniform that completely destroys any element of individuality within a group. Nicely convenient that tracksuit bottoms are flammable, though…
it’s hate crimes like this rapists and child molesters that make me wish there was still a death sentance.
to be honest with you though. i don’t think the fuckers responsable for Sophie Lancasters death have much to worry about prison. When they are released theres alot of people from alternative backgrounds who are still going to hold a grudge.
I can tell you if i ever came face to face with them i wouldn’t be able to control myself, but hopefully Karma will catch up with them. maybe rip them a new arse hole so they’ll be popular with all the other inmates. CUNTS!
Yep, lawyers and judges must be the first to go when the change comes. Keep your eyes open for the new political party ‘Omerta’. There is another way.
the attack was cus the way she looked i bet the sentence wouldn’t have been reduced if it was race related and its the same thing because its over appearence
what the fuck? thats wrong! i want to chop the kids balls off who did that to her…. They should get life… not fucking 10years or some shit…
This society is getting out of control, the goverment dont give a fuck that she died….
-sigh- I want to hunt them down >.<
If anything, the sentences should have been increased- all of them were too soft
THEIR CRIME = DEATH PENALTY
I don’t give a shit how fucking old or fucking autistic they are. In addition, their parents should be strung up by their tits and nuts and flogged for an hour. If your 15 year old is not home at 1:00 in the morning, you are not doing your job as a parent properly.
FUCKING COCKSMOKES!
i hate to be voice of reason but by saying ‘i hope they die’ your being hypocritical, your saying they should die for what they are, is it that different to them killing her for what she is?
that being said, i totally agree with the chemical testing idea. chav+acid= ?
an eye for an eye, is it not?
yet, would any of us go and kick a girl to death, when she hasnt done anything wrong? no, because were not a bunch of fucking bellends. no shit, id love nothing more than to see those cunts. “there will be blood” lol
People like this will never change. Send them to fight the fuckin taliban, then people wouldn’t care when soldiers die in, battle as they fuckin deserve it either way!
well, this is what comes of having some stuff shirt with no idea how bad the world is decide what justice is. Personally, I would rather those sick s.o.b.’s never saw the inside of a courtroom.When you get the law involved there are no winners and no justice. Give them a good beating, see how they like it.
Actually, bring back the death penalty, that’ll do.
In no way at all do i support the death penalty. But surely life imprisonment is the least they deserve? They took an innocent girls life who was trying to protect someone that they thought it would be hillarious to attack for no reason whatsoever then the way that they were dressed.
If that isnt a hate crime then what is?
OMFG! That’s horrible! Why would the courts want to reduce the sentence of a killer? If he was over 18, he would have gotten life, but noooooooo… GRRRRRRRRRR I’m SOOOOOOOOOOO mad right now! (N) not on!
If this has been in the US they’d be made to pay. Eye for an Eye, just proving again that the justice system is crap. Put them in a Bodom pit with everyone who cares for Sophie’s death.
Theres no way they’ll serve those sentences our justice system has been shot ti shit
surely in the prisons they go to there will be people who outside of prison would dress just like sophie so lets hope they get beat to death during their sentences
You know, I was once considering becoming a barrister, but to be quite honest, this just proves that there is no justice in the British ”Justice” System. When these cockroaches, wait a sec, thats insulting to cockroaches, I correct myself and use ‘’scumbags”, who turn around and murder in cold blood one of our kind, we find betrayal at the hearts of our own country. What else can we describe a reduced sentence as? It is betrayal of our freedom of the worst possible kind.
Personally, I may have found a new purpose for my frustrations, and I wouldnt be surprised if I find in the news, in the near future, that someone was waiting for these bastards with a Barratt 50.cal. Heres hoping.
Rest In Peace Sophie, but I am sure you will not be the last in this struggle. However you will not be forgotten……..
I say we wait outside the prison with burning torches and pitchforkes when they are released, it’s the least they deserve after what they did to Sophie and Robert.
Who’s with me?
“Put em in a room with no windows or doors and please just give me….5 MINUTES ALONE!! Wankers!!”
– How would you get into the room then?
But yeah anyway it’’s bullshit, this country is fucked and it’s ashame theres nothing that can be done about it. I hope the faggots get what’s coming to them.
next year they will have another appeal and by 2 yrs time they will be out of jail to do the same thing again
im afriad this is the state of our ‘great’ nation we live in, the streets are over run with feral kids, but hey never forgot thats just the way the government want it, lets face it they do the job that governments dare not do, these chavs keep people from leaving thier homes, beat any one or anything if they are different or have had half a bottle of white lighting! these chavs are the governments soldiers!
no apoligies but bring back the death penalty lets make it like for like!! eye for an eye! watch the crime numbers go down and dumb ass chavs get what they deserve!
FFS bring back the death penalty, chavs are now worse than emo’s, if i were the judge, if he put an appeal up, instead of reducing the charges id double them, nah fuck that, shut the bastards, one of my goth friends she went back to normal but still loves her goth and death metal, only because she received stick off of people. What we need are policeman on the beat, like we used to have, I say bring the chav holocaust to light. Metalheads, goths and other subcultures except rappers, and all r&b chav shit. we all unite as one.
If i was an inmate to them, id fucking murder them, eye for an eye, now look at germany, usa, finland, estonia, sweden, austria, czech rep, all their laws are strict, in florida you murder you get about 30 to 40 years in jail, multiple murders earn u death row.
Hailz metalheads and goths.
Brothers and sisters as one.
RIP. Sophie Lancaster
you were one of us dear, we will always remember you.
i can’t believe someone who knew full well what they were doing should even be allowed to appeal. it’s disgusting and i can’t believe that it would be allowed to happen. i still think they should have been shot, personally…
thats just fucking wrong, just goes to show how fucked the u.k justice system is. people have been locked up for longer, for less. give ‘em life sentence
im sure if they had black skin rather then black cloths it would be totaly diffrent. its still discrimination, be it skin, religion, sexuality or cloths.
Getting sentences reduced is a delicate business. However, I don’t know what the court was all smoking or being paid off (oh wait, their chavs, no chance of money, reduce that to just dope then cuase they must be stupid, brainless and all other personifcations of the word stupid that I can think of). But this is plain wrong. 15 Years? That won’t happen. Life doesn’t mean life any more, if it ever did. 15 Years in prison may change someone for a bit, but in the end they all subvert to what it was that made those guys kill poor Sophie in the first place. Just keep them in there, behind cold steel, so the rest of us can sleep a little easier, knowing this innocent girl is at least getting a shred of justice for this.
those bastards dnt deserve death its too easy for them they deserve a long slow torturous existence
This is disgusting, this just shows a human life is worth nothing. these people should be forced to suffer the same pain as sophie, and then some. Just becuse its a goth girl who was killed instantly makes it less important, hate is hate, but i guess that doesn’t matter anymore.
It’s offical, the system has failed.
