Ian Huntley dead, he was attacked and killed by a convicted murderer and rapist

@ArishMell but what

@AbsolutelyFabulous He was undoubtedly evil, guilty of two utterly despicable murders, and imprisoned along with other violent nobodies; but there is no more justification for violence and murder among prison inmates than in the outside world.

We don't yet know what will happen to Huntley's killer, but I would have thought the charge would be manslaughter if not murder.

I'm only surprised though that Huntley was given a 40-year rather than whole-life tariff - but it would not have guaranteed his release. The tariff means "at least", not "limited to", x years.
