On 12 February 1993 in Merseyside, two 10-year-old boys, Robert Thompson (born 23 August 1982) and Jon Venables (born 13 August 1982), abducted, tortured, and murdered a two-year-old boy, James Patrick Bulger (16 March 1990).
They were sentenced to indefinite detention at Her Majesty's pleasure, and remained in custody until a Parole Board decision in June 2001 recommended their release on a lifelong licence at age 18.
The Bulger case has prompted widespread debate about how to handle young offenders when they are sentenced or released from custody.
During the case about Jasmine Richardson, you showed a picture of Brooke Skylar Richardson, not Jasmine Richardson. They have the same last name, but aren’t related at all, Brooke was in headlines after burying her baby after its clandestine birth in the U.S. and Jasmine help to kill her family in Canada. They’re aren’t even in the same country! 🙄
