They should lock them up and throw the key away but no doubt they'll be out in a few years using mental health as an excuse for what happened.


Marten and Gordon were arrested by cops in Brighton on Monday night - without their newborn baby - after 54 days on the run.
It's believed Marten withdrew £15,000 of cash and the pair bought burner phones with multiple sim cards.
The pair ditched their burning car and a nationwide hunt for the three of them began.
They are believed to have spent time sleeping rough and travelling the country using cabs after being spotted buying camping equipment from an East London Argos on January 7.
Concerns grew for the missing aristocrat, 35, and her baby, as temperatures across the country plummeted.
The pair were last seen with their baby in Newhaven, East Sussex, on January 9.
CCTV captured images of the hooded pair dumping their child's pram in the port town.

It's shocking and we have not even got a full outcome yet as the parents if you can call them that are not giving any info to help matters
 
The police don't help they announce they have found a body then ask people not to speculate its obvious with no more information given that is exactly what people will do.
 
Constance Marten and Mark Gordon have been charged with gross negligence manslaughter after remains of a baby were found in an area of woodland. (BBC news)
The remains of a newborn were found on Wednesday following a massive search operation around Brighton.
Prosecutors said they are also accused of concealing the birth of a child and perverting the course of justice.
Ms Marten, 35, and Gordon, 48, are due to appear at Brighton Magistrates' Court on Friday.
They were first arrested on Monday evening and held in custody for questioning, before being charged by the Crown Prosecution Service on Thursday evening.
Police said earlier on Thursday it was "too early" to say when the infant died or establish its sex.
Barry Hughes, chief crown prosecutor for CPS London North, said: "The CPS has authorised the Metropolitan Police to charge Constance Marten and Mark Gordon with gross negligence manslaughter.
"Constance Marten, aged 35, and Mark Gordon, aged 48, have also been charged with concealing the birth of a child and perverting the course of justice.
"These charges arise from their arrest on Monday as a result of a lengthy police investigation to establish their whereabouts and that of their baby.
"The Crown Prosecution Service reminds all concerned that criminal proceedings against Constance Marten and Mark Gordon are active and that they have the right to a fair trial."
The Met said a post-mortem examination would take place on Friday.
