Jon Venables to have indefinite life sentence for crimes whilst under licence

Petition Details

I would like Parliament to extend Jon Venables sentence he is currently receiving to an indefinite one with no release date until he is deemed not a danger to the public which he has proven to be on separate occasions since 2010.

Additional Information

It is the duty of Parliament to keep the public safe from such dangerous people and given his crimes at the age of 10 years old this is surely a individual who has shown no remorse for his crimes and has continued in criminal activity and has a new identity.

Jon Venables has a life sentence waiting

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

This isn't something that the UK Government or Parliament could do. Sentences are the responsibility of the courts, which are independent of the Government and Parliament.

Anyone can ask the Attorney General to review a sentence they think is too low, and only one person needs to ask for a sentence to be reviewed. You can find out how to do that here:
