BRITISH justice used to be the best in the world.
Today I have heard that a failed asylum seeker who was due to be deported decided to murder his baby son by slitting his throat in front of the mother thereby showing her that if he could not be involved with his son's upbringing nor could she.
This is an horrific murder and pre-mediated and in my opinion he should stay in jail for the rest of this life. However, the judge passing the sentence recommended that he should serve at least 13 years.
Am I alone in thinking that British justice has gone mad? For such a crime on an innocent baby this guy should never be let out of prison.
