    Nah dont get me wrong - the whole case is awful and i feel almost sick when i hear about what happened... just dont like newspapers making a mint out of something so shocking, every day is a competition between them right now to get people to buy the paper by using the most "effective" headlines...

    I dont believe for a second personally that they are both any less than totally guilty and should be harshly punished.

    I suggest some of you sun readers read this:

    http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,9290-919161,00.html

    Now I'm not going to begin to try and sentence her, however from reading that transcript a very different picture painted... Have you ever met a girl who's been in an abusive/controling relationship - actually living where you live I'm guessing most of your mothers were :p

    Maxine Carr strikes me as your standard controlled and infatuated girlfriend, how many times have you heard he'd never hit the kids or he's not that bad... why would this relationship be any different? Of course she'd talk herself out of the worst case scenario, most girls in her situation do.

    I think she may not of known and even if there was an incling she'd of tried to deny it... She's certainly no mira hindley.

    What should we do then just throw her to the mob? We need to help her rebuild her life after this, that's our responsibility as a civil society (if we are one which I'm not sure about).

    Do you mean then that earlier on, when you were rounding up the mob to lynch the witch, that you hadn't read the transcripts???

    That would be perverting the course of justice in a murder case

    She should be supported like any other criminal after rehabilitation, no more, no less. Let's not make her a special case.

    I am of course presuming she get's some sort of custodial sentence.

    The transcripts read like a women trying to SAVE HER OWN ARSE!
    She has lost her paddle but she is already well up the creek, HER ONLY DEFENCE IS TO DUMP THE LOT ON HUNTLEY.SHE IS DOING A CRACKING JOB.

    Or does that not come accross in your no crime should equal time land?

    What did Huntley say about Carr's involvement?

    The "I just cleaned my house" as normal pish doesn't wash with me. She knew she was cleaning up damaging evidence about the murder of two innocent children.

    Spence everyday girlfriends give false alibi's, on giving the false alibi "my personal" thoughts are she genuinly didn't believe or didn't wnat to believe that Ian could possibly have anything to do with their abduction....

    How can you possibly justify locking her up for life, burning the withc, yada yada yada?

    Have you ever seen a girl terrified of her boyfriend, yet at the same time infatuated with him - its horrible and extremely comprehendable that she didn't believe he had any involvement.

    Yes she should be punished/helped - but she should not be put in the same category as I Huntley - as the tabloids seem to of done.

    I think their may of been a niggle of doubt in her mind and I two don't buy the normal house work... but you can't justify putting her in the same category as huntley.

    i find it really hard to be objective when thinking about this case as it really is so grim. nevertheless i am inclined to believe that this is a woman who may of finally realised the gravity of her actions and those of her ex-partner and is desparately struggling to defend herself, as would most in her situation.

    in terms of a punishment cost vs relocating her; a custodial sentence would actually costs so many more times more due to the nature of prisons, she would probably need to be kept in near isolation from other prisoners. the cost of creating her a new life elsewhere would be miniscule in comparssion to the cost of locking her up for 3/4 years.

    if she is found guilty, which i expect that she will be, i imagine the judge will impose a 1-2 year sentence which she has nearly served half off anyway. unless the prosecution can somehow tie her into the deaths themselves as an accesorary then she will not recieve a particularly serious punishment.

    wtf you on about?? show me where I said that!!

    I already said, she's guilty as hell... of perverting the course of justice (yeah in a murder trial, I knew that already :dunce: ) but its starting to look like she genuinely believed 1) the girls were still alive at the time she started telling lies, 2) huntley had nothing to do with it but was going to get the blame anyway, and by the time the reality of the situation hit her she was already neck deep in lies!
