Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
Do you remember February 1993 in England , when a
young boy of 3 was taken from a Liverpool shopping
centre by two 10-year-old boys?
Jamie Bulger walked away from his mother for only
a second, Jon Venables took his hand and led him out
of the mall with his friend Robert Thompson. They took
Jamie on a walk for over 2 and a half miles, along the
way stopping every now and again to
torture the poor little boy who was crying
constantly for his mummy.
Finally they stopped at a railway track where they
brutally kicked him, threw stones at him, rubbed paint
in his eyes, pushed batteries up his anus and cut his
fingers off with scissors. Other mutilations were
inflicted but not reported in the press.
N.B. :- Remember, a 3year old cannot possibly
defend themselves against a 10 year old, let alone of
2 them.
What these two boys did was so horrendous that
Jamie's mother was forbidden to identify his body.
They then left his beaten small body on railway
tracks so a train could run him over to hide the mess
they had created. These two boys, even being boys,
understood what they did was wrong, hence trying to
make it look like an accident.
This week Lady Justice Butler-Sloss has awarded
the two boys ( now men ), anonymity for the rest of
their lives when they leave custody with new
identities. They will also leave custody early only
serving just over half of their sentence.
They are being relocated to Australia to live out
the rest of their lives. They disgustingly and
violently took Jamie's life away and in return they
each get a new life!

I am in the states--in California. I went to school with a young man who enacted a brutal crime against two young girls. I used to feel sorry for this boy because he was picked on a lot. I even stopped a mob from beating him up one night.
He had a crush on a girl, and I guess she was kind to him, but not interested in anything "romantic". One day he turned up at her house before she got home from her afternoon job. He found her little sister and her little sister's friend at the home. He blugeoned them and sodomized them with a hammer. He was 15 and the girls were 10. I believe they tried him in court as an adult so they could give him a long sentence.
I have thought about him from time to time. His life is suspended, in a lot of ways, at the age of 15. While I have gone on with my life, twenty-four years have passed and I have experienced relationships, and travel and education and parenting. And he has sat there in a cell. But two other young lives were suspended...Two others have also not experienced life--of any sort--over the last 24 years.
I don't have a vengeful spirit, but I would not ever want that boy--who is now a man--back out on the streets.
I am horrified that the bullying he endured--and I know it went on for most of his life--may have played a part in what he did. That said, what he did was monstrous and inconceivable to most human beings.
I just can't imagine allowing people who have committed such crimes to dwell among unsuspecting people.
