SO, four times killer Mark Hobson has been jailed for the rest of his life.
Often the sentence does not seem to fit the crime and justice has not been done, so it is good to see when it has.
Hobson has been given four life sentences for the murders and sentenced jail for the whole of his life.
It is sometimes found that a convicted murderer has his own cell with a TV etc, in what is more like a single bedroom than a cell.
I hope this will not be the case for Hobson.
He should spend the rest of his days without TV, or other such luxuries that everyday people must work for.
A room, bed and toilet is the very best such a man deserves. He should not be allowed to mingle with the prison population either because they would not be safe from such a person with no regard for human life.
He should also be forced to work at some task to offset the cost of his imprisonment that taxpayers of this country must endure.
