REGARDING the continuing incarceration of Myra Hindley, I say that she should be released, as she wants. Thirty-five years in jail is long enough -- too long.

Myra Hundley repented a long time ago. If we honestly call ourselves Christians, we must forgive her or we are condemned.

Jack Straw, by refusing to release her, is pandering to the basest instincts of the rabble.
