Ok, so one repeat criminal murdered another criminal (sex offences back in the 1980s) and is now spending 20 years in prison.
I think that’s fair.

Interesting headline from the BBC when the murder just so happened to rob the victim after killing him. Then decided to make it look like a suicide.
>He said the defendant had returned to the scene to create a “fake suicide” scenario, which initially fooled police; “tried to get money” from Mr Singh-Gill; and had stolen a mobile phone.
>Prosecutors said Sereaton had drug debts and had “tried to get money” from his victim.
>Mr Christie said Sereaton had 19 convictions dating back to 2001 for crimes including robbery, burglary and drug supply.
Meanwhile Mr Singh-Gill the victim clearly was a sex offender, but they only describe crimes from 20 years ago, that doesn’t seem very recent. Sounds more like to me that the murder was just looking for an easy excuse to get away with murder.
>Mr Singh-Gill, on the other hand, had a history of sex offending dating back to the early 1980s, Mr Christie added.
>These included indecent assaults on males and females, and the prosecutor said he was placed on the sex offenders register in 2002.

This is going to get some people very confused about how to feel.

BBC probably sensible to not enable comments on this one.
