Justice for Jamie Bulger

The following email I received today was originally authored by "M & L. Grisold, Wantirna; Australia", and I thought it appropriate to publish it in the form of an online petition; in doing so, not only can it reach more people, but additionally, all of its signatures can be seen in one place, rather than being scattered in dozens of different emails: -

"Do you remember February 1993 when a young 3 yr old was taken from Liverpool, United Kingdom, by two 10-year-old boys?

Jamie Bulger walked away from his mother for only a second and 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 and pushed batteries up his anus. It was actually worse than this. 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 the tracks so a train could run him over to hide the mess they created. These two boys, even being boys, understood that they did was wrong, hence trying to make it look like an accident.

This week Lady Justice Butler-Sloss has awarded the two boys anonymity for the rest of their lives when they leave custody with new identities. They will also leave early this year 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 - in return they each get a new life.

Please ... if you feel, as we do, that this is a grave miscarriage of justice copy entire email. Then add your name at the end, and send it to everyone you can! If you are the 500th person to sign, please forward this e-mail to: [email protected] and attention it to Lady Justice Butler-Sloss. Then start the list over again and send to your friends and family.

The Love-Bug virus took less than 72 hours to reach the world. I hope this one does as well. We need to protect our family and friends from creatures like Robert and Jon. One day they may be living next door to you and your small children, without your knowledge."
