    Made me laugh, wish you pricks would stop doing that.

    Anyway, at least I'll recognise the Wests in hell now.

    wow

    A judge has directed the 83-year-old dementia sufferer should be freed, to take effect in three months to allow time for somewhere to be found to care for Vincent.

    In 1968, he pleaded guilty to seven charges of indecent assault and was sentenced to the open-ended term of preventive detention.

    Today he would probably avoid going to prison completely.

    EDIT: Heard on the radio that the assaults were on young boys, so no way he'd have avoided prison.

    “He has been refused parole at least 48 times, most recently on 19 August 2019. He is apparently New Zealand’s longest serving prisoner.

    @taniwharugby my first thought was that removing this fella from his lifelong, safe environment into the care of a strange place and people would be about the most stress you could put him under.

    This isn't an act of kindness. He's not going to skip about delighted at the modern world infinitely elated by his new found freedom.

    Another fine example of the "saviours" making themselves feel better to the detriment of the victim.

    Suspect a prison may not be the best place to deal with this:

    "Vincent had stage five dementia and a range of other health issues. He appeared not to know his name, did not talk clearly, had no self-care skills, and required help for all his daily activities."

    @Snowy give him internet access and he sounds like he'd fit in here just fine.

    There is some evidence that he may already be here.

    If you can be arsed clicking through it, that snake is surprisingly not from NZ, but from SA...am guessing that means those hot Russian chicks that live within 500m of my house wanting me arent real too.

    I suspect that is part of "the stupid shit". The wording may be a bit poor.

    He was most likely prosecuted for setting a pizza shop car on fire and plead guilty.

    Setting himself on fire is just a bonus for us all.
