I think people are forgetting the important question here - what the **** does "E203" mean on the pizzas in the photo?

Aaaah I have gotten to the bottom of this mystery.

*Tilts detective hat to the left*....the "E203" actually refers to the sum of 203 GBP that the pizza place, where he allegedly works, raised for a previous co-worker. BOOM.

Its obvious that he needs the new ID because of this leak and the pictures.

Here is a link to the facebook of the group that revealed his new identity.

http://www.facebook.com/pages/CHRIS-children-have-rights-in-society/141671072532024

Well nice to see the proles whipped up into a right old tizzy over Venables on that site. "Let's hope he gets what he deserves....hang him....kill him...break his legs...bash his brains..."

Bloody morons, seeking to claim the high moral ground, whilst simultaneously salivating at the prospect of inflicting torture and pain on another person. Hypocrites of the highest order. But then, most don't give a sh!t about justice, but rather about sating their own hysteria.

EDIT: I wonder if this group, claiming to work for the rights of children, have advocated the rights of ten year old Venables and Thompson? Not bloody likely... "Rights for some children, some of the time"!!

From the website that allegedly revealed his new identity:

We have just had to take the website down as We think there may of been a deliberate hack, to shut it down, by police or goverment officials. The technical team are looking into it and it will be back up later after we have seen where the threat came from

On the discussions section of their facebook page there is then this:

Displaying the only post.

Sally Robertson
Just to let you know, although we obviously all appreciate C.H.R.I.S, the picture of Jon Venables is a mistake. That's not him.
49 minutes ago

From Sky News:

Child killer Jon Venables is to get a new secret name, because of a serious security breach which has revealed details of his current identity.

A source said: "We had resisted a new ID because he had lived with the first one for so long and it's very difficult to do that.
"But the new security breach is considered so serious that a new identity is the only answer, because we believe so many people will have learned who he is and it would be impossible to protect him."

What therefore did the website in question hope to achieve?
Firstly we have no idea if it was him or not
Secondly the authorities in the UK are issuing him with new ID papers now anyway at a cost of €1,000's to the UK taxpayer

If he commits a crime warranting incarceration, then of course he should be locked up.

I think he should be judged according to the crime he commits, not those he once committed. And sentenced accordingly. Everyone has this right.

GRAPHIC!

Those two ten year old boys decided to kill a child that day, any child. They walked around the shopping centre 'shopping' for a child. Unluckily for Jamie he was the one they picked. They didn't just kill him outright, they walked him the best part of three miles on his baby legs, they terrorised him, hurt him, threw bricks at him, tortured him, possibly sexually assaulted him. He suffered 42 injuries (lots of them fractures) so bad that the injury which killed him couldn't be identified. Then they left his body on a railway track - covered his head with bricks and he was cut in two by a train. FFS! He was two years old.

Since then one of them has been jailed again for possessing child pornography, pictures of children some as young as Jamie Bolger.

While I wouldn't like to see them suffer the same fate as Jamie, I would prefer that they were locked up forever unable to subject another human being to the same treatment. I can understand why people get so 'hot and bothered' about Thompson and Venables being on the loose.

Thats not the question to be asking. The question to be asking is why 2 ten year olds did this, what went through their mind . Did they set out to murder that day ?
On that day 3 children lost their lives with no questions answered. 2 of them are still alive , but instead of sitting down talking to them learning what actually happened, getting an early indication of signs this might happen again , its back to the "get the pitch forks" mentality.

Back then the reason given to why they killed Jamie was put down to the childsplay movies. Not Society or their parents, lack of security, or lack of police response.

In the end Justice was served and they did their time.

Not that i dont agree with you, scum doesnt even cover what that guy is but the law is the law, either hes in prison serving his sentence or hes free, its not up to the general public to know who he is so that he can live in a constant state of danger and harassment because thats a sentence all to itself and not one a modern society would give somebody.

I'd prefer to see someone that sick in the head locked away but the courts sent him out into the world, they determined that his sentence was complete so by their conclusion he's now deserving of a life of his own.

According to one of the investigating officers this evening, they did set out to murder. They admitted it and there was evidence.

The officer also said they knew what had happened, they were able to track it bit by bit with the boys corroborating but they were given absolutely no indication by either of the lads as to motivation.

Yakult · 04-05-2011 11:08pm

He should be identified and the protection should stop right away. Such a waste of money and he obviously is a horrible human being. Doesnt deserve anything nevermind protection and Im sure theirs a much better and cheaper way to deal with people like that.

While they were in detention they would have had countless meetings with psychologists, counsellors, etc to try and establish exactly that.

It was obviously felt that that the 2 were rehabilitated and no longer a threat to public safety and should be given new identities upon release.

When Venebables was arrested for possesison of child pornography, it was this new identity/person they created that committed the crime and therefore should be named and shamed like any other criminal.

It seems Thompson has kept out of trouble thus far, so not so many are calling for him to be outed.

Maybe or maybe just very sick. Everybody is entitled to the law to protect them and the right to treatment if that is indicated. No matter how outrageous their acts, they should have that right. Yes they should be punished, but that is for the courts to decide not "community justice". However, I believe in people being sick rather than evil, and if sick they need treatment, and if they are a danger to the public detention for as long as required.

Odysseus, do you believe at all that some folks might be simply bad? This isn't a criticism of you or smartarsery - genuine question. The whole "evil or insane?" debate is an interesting if complex one. I personally don't know what to think - initially I'd assume anyone who's capable of monstrousness is mentally ill, but then again, maybe some people are just horrible and enjoy inflicting suffering and that's too difficult for us to face...

I think people dismiss criminals as being "evil" far too quickly simply because it's easier. If we say that someone is "sick" then there's the fear that anyone could become sick. But say that they're "evil" and it draws a fine and definite line between them and the rest of us.

There are evil people out there, yes, but nowhere near as many as some poeple would have us believe.

Well, and this is attempting to explain not excuse the crime, but both boys had pretty bad childhoods with little discipline. That can't have helped.

Thompson was the manipulative ringleader, Venables was easily led.

Most of my experience of sexual violence has been with people who experienced it, but I have worked with offenders too. I have never met a evil person in anyway; so in my experience I have found people who do bad acts to be mentally disordered, and any research I do around it suggest that rather than bad or evil.

I know it would be pointless working with some of the people I have worked over the years if they where evil. It's a big question whether treatment can be effective with some people, but I do know people who have benefited from it. I'm not saying it works for everyone, I would not consider my an expert in the area, but it makes more sense that just labelling the bad, it seems a cop out to me.

When you say bad, what does that mean? Can you elaborate on it, I would be interested in how you define the person bad rather than mad.

Not mentally ill, not a victim of circumstances (abuse, neglect) yet capable of making others suffer terribly and enjoying it. I'm just wondering whether that's possible - I certainly don't know, and I'd certainly prefer to think there is nobody like that out there.

Whereas with a mentally disordered perspective it supplies us with some insight into why a person may commit such acts, how would you see the bad view as providing us with some insight into the reasons for those acts? I know it's a heavy topic for such late an hour; but I can't buy the evil viewpoint as it tells me nothing about the motivation, the enjoyment, the guilt or lack of it, etc that goes with such acts. That is why I believe the bad or evil perspective is a cop out.

It distances such people from us, I spend my day asking people to tell me their inner most thoughts, and even from people who never committed any type of violence towards another person, some scary stuff goes on in a lot of peoples minds. They only come out when you allow the person to speak freely without the fear of being condemed because of their own thoughts.

By evil, I mean having a full knowledge of their actions and fully intending on hurting others as much as if not more than achieving their own pleasure. Sick, for me, would be someone who is more interested in their own pleasure.

Oh come on pleae not this old chestnut again. The 'bad upbringing' thing always gets rolled out as though it were an explanation for every ill-deed. There has to be a whole lot more to it than that, as plenty of people get crappy and neglectful upbringings and turn out pretty ok. What they did needs a bit more explaining than mommy did't love me.

That doesn't rule out the possibility it was a factor - it's not excusing it though.

Well Odysseus is saying, based on their extensive related research and work, that there doesn't seem to be evil without mental illness/damage.

No, I'm sorry but it would be completely daft to ignore it! The lack of discipline would be a factor. I find it more of an old chestnut to just neatly put it down to "evil".

Actually I think if their mother didn't love them, it would explain a great deal.
Regardless, there are degrees of bad upbringings and people have different levels of resilience also. There is a myriad of factors.

'Evil' gets thrown around to a retarded degree and is just a dismissive way of not being bothered to attempt to understand (not condone) as to how a person became who they are.

Yeah, I mean obviously lots of kids have tough upbringings but how they deal with them may be different.

stovelid · 05-05-2011 10:24am

Saw the documentary last night but had to keep turning over as I have a young boy the same age as JB and it was too upsetting to watch in parts.

They had terrible upbringings but many people had worse and didn't do that. You can't help feeling there has to be some kind of mental explanation for it? That said, they were barely children themselves but I can't honestly believe that somebody that did that to a baby while they begged for their mother can just suddenly become adjusted, peaceful adults. Could they?

God help the people that had to make some sense of why they did what they did.

Circumstance, experience, there's likely a myriad of factors which combine to turn two delinquent kids into murderers. Plenty of kids around that age devise horrific things to do to animals and other kids, but in this instance, all of the factors combined to end up with a baby losing his life.

That said, they were barely children themselves but I can't honestly believe that somebody that did that to a baby while they begged for their mother can just suddenly become adjusted, peaceful adults. Could they?

Suddenly, doubtful. But at ten years old, they're hardly set as the person they're going to be for the rest of their lives. "Evil" implies that there's an underlying force there from birth, imprinted and unchangeable. Which is of course, nonsense. It's a cop-out, an unwillingness to believe that the person who committed these acts is as human as you and I are, just having had different circumstances set on them.

Now, some traits are in-built, they manifest very early on, but the complicated level of thought which goes into these kinds of acts isn't something that spontaneously exists in the person. It's the combination of the inbuilt personal traits combined with how the person's upbringing has influenced (and been influenced) by those characteristics.
In rare cases, like this one, you end up with unspeakable acts.

One of the guys ended up being caught for child porn. No doubt part of the whole tapestry of ****ed-upness in his brain. The other guy has been given a new identity and hasn't surfaced since. So there's every reason to assume that he has moved from "evil" child to reformed adult.

bluelegend · 05-05-2011 5:56pm

Some facts about the case that people on here may not be aware off:

1. They walked 2.5 miles with JB, lying to countless people and passing numerous opportunities to leave JB be (including passing a police station).

2. There was a poor upbringing fact - very much so in Thompson's case though not as bad with Venables - it's widely believed that Thompson is far more intelligent.

3. All psychiatric tests on them at the time maintained that they know right from wrong and were acting in full knowledge of what they were doing.

4. They tried to abduct another child earlier that day from the Strand SC.

5. They tortured and allegedly (never proven though evidence pointed towards it) sexually abused JB.

5. They never ever, showed any remorse for the killing.

Now please don't tell me that these kids were a symptom of their environs and that it is in any way excusable for what they did. I've heard of blaming the parents but not in this instance. There's something in those boys (now men) far more rotten than being a victim of their upbringing.

Trying to understand/explain why a person may commit such acts is not excusing them. The act and they result of that act remain the same, not buying into cop-outs such as they where evil, does not mean people do not think they should not be punished. In the same way, trying to understand these acts is not ablout placing blame anywhere.

Interesting one.....maybe being bad is a desire. A desire to impress upon others or oneself that they can achive something like steal a car, trip someone up. Evil in my humble opinion, is an emotion that expresses an act of which the individual has no regret or thoughts of the implications of that act.

As you can see I most defintiely am not qualified in this area.....just my tuppence.

And everybody is entitled to their tuppence. However, when you look at some of the strong opinions about what should happen to people who commit such acts, I do believe that if you want to stand over such strong opinion, that you should try understand what motivates people who rape, kill, toture etc.

I don't think you can take a person seriously who thinks that such people are evil, and that society can just lock them away as they willnot/cannot change. Especially as they never tried to understand it, or accept that part of the justice system is facilitating treatment when there was something wrong in the person life, which is part of the reason why the committed the act.

There is a shedload of research on the mad or bad question, if you want people to listen to your tuppence, at least try educate yourself around the questions involved. But hey mob justice is always more popular,

And everybody is entitled to their tuppence. However, when you look at some of the strong opinions about what should happen to people who commit such acts, I do believe that if you want to stand over such strong opinion, that you should try understand what motivates people who rape, kill, toture etc.

I don't think you can take a person seriously who thinks that such people are evil, and that society can just lock them away as they willnot/cannot change.

Strange comments since I never suggested what should or should not happen to them and I certainly never advocated mob justice. I gave my tuppence on the mindset of these boys at the time nothing else. Why should I need to educate myself as you suggest. Very strange comments Odysseus.

Well I've been doing some reading on the net about his new identity and I can say without a doubt it is him.
What do you think will happen now? New identity? But how will he hide his face?

Also, am I the only one who is actually disgusted by the things that people say about it; barbaric stuff about what they'd do to Venables? I know he's a disgusting bastard for what he did, but where's the line?

Although if I was personally affected by his actions then I'm sure my opinion would be different

Typical comments: "oh if i eva saw hm i wud kill him, cut em in haf i wud, deservez to hang e does"
