That's the problem, in Canada anyway. 25 years (to life) is the max sentence anyone can get here. I mean really, in a case such as Paul Bernardo's, what's with the "eligible for parole in 25 years" crap anyway?
No, I'm for doing away with that kind of scum where they have
irrefutable evidence they did it.
It's not fair to the victim's family AT ALL that there is even the slightest chance someone like that Li the beheader could ever be set free, yet there it is, he could go free at some point if certain doctors deem him fit to reenter society.
Fact is if he beheaded your brother, or your son perhaps, and I'm speaking to everyone here, you WOULD want the scum put to death.
As it stands now there is no penalty harsh enough in Canada for this level of criminal.
