Ian Brady dies

[Blue Hills]

The best news I've heard all year.

I really do hope not.

 

[ufkacbln]

But you're ok with child murderers, right?

An appalling misinterpretation

An appalling misinterpretation

Yes. Noxious. But also laughable. And pathetic game playing. The other place beckons.

 

[Drago]

Oh dear. What a shame. Couldn't have happened to a nicer person.

The genuine shame is that he never did one decent, compassionate thing in his life and reveal the whereabouts of the poor boy who's still out there.

It would be better if the entire post is removed. Even in death he is remembered.

 

[S-Express]

That's a bit of a leap in your logic. I don't see the point in rejoicing in his death. It doesn't make anybody a better person, does it, even on social media?

I wasn't rejoicing in his death. Quite the opposite in fact.

Why remove this thread,as some suggest? Let's pretend he didn't exist or didn't rape,torture and mutilate children who were lulled into thinking he was a decent man eh? This thread will fade out after people have vented their spleen .Let them have their say. This monster's actions cannot be swept under the carpet. To pretend he didn't exist or commit such heinous crimes is like saying "Oh it happened a long time ago and didn't affect me,so i'm not bothered". The main reason Brady sticks in our minds and has been allowed to mentally torture his victims families is because he's been kept alive by the state,allowing him to do so. Him and Hindley should've been hung for their crimes,not allowed to carry on this "release me" "keep me in a mental institution" charade or decades!

All absolutely true. But he fed on the control he had over others. Non existence for someone like that in my opinion is the most damaging way of bursting that bubble.

True,but he's dead now. He can't gain perverted gratification from being "notorious" anymore.

 

[raleighnut]

Should have been hanged, as should Pitchfork, Huntley etc.

Hope he rots in hell

 

[fossyant]

At least the tax payer is saving now the scum is dead.

I would be surprised if his death brings the victim's families any relief.

And that's one of the saddest parts of the whole thing. The media furore and public outcry that has continued (and no doubt will resurface now) since the crime has, in my opinion, prevented the victims' families from grieving in the normal way.

For sure, but his were very public crimes
