Hey Admin!
Can you help me please?
Where you there when the
2 devo kids bashed the
munchkin’s skull?
Hmm, so you didn’t do anything
right?
You have no knowledge of
the murder?
You didn’t participate?
Do you still beat your wife?
I am here to help because
I love you!
You can trust me so tell
the truth.
Best regards,
Buddy Bud
ur crazy
I’ m from Liverpool where this atrocity happened and YOU are an idiot !
So you’re a cousin fucker with an annoying accent is what you’re saying?
there is proof and later on confessions u total fucking retard
i fucking hate kids
You were a kid once, never forget that
Very true,I love my 6 year old son,but some of these little assholes throwing tantrums in shopping malls,telling their mothers to “get fucked” definitely need a kick up the ass & to learn some manners
Shit argument they’ll also be a corpse one day doesn’t mean they have to like corpses. Kids are fucking awful and capable of horrible shit this case is proof #fuckthemkids
So what? Kids can be assholes in general, but what those two did was evil beyond belief, and many kids commit crimes knowing they can be protected by the law.
I’m crying for little James!! But the movie is good and I must give credit to Ely Solan!! He is so good acting-wise and very cute too
I was 15 at the time,massive world wide case,only in fairly recent times has the full blow by blow story come out,evil little bastards…..Venables in particular is is a perverted psychopath to this day,at least Thompson has managed to live a lawful,anonymous life,Jon is still very dangerous,either way,both got off lightly
The Bulger family and detective Albert Kirby opposed the release of this film because they felt it portrayed Venables and Thompson in a sympathetic way. That didn’t stop them from cashing in on a new documentary and making the rounds on the day time talk shows. There is nothing wrong with that but it seemed like a coordinated effort at the time. Nevertheless, you have to admit that the child that played the part of Venables (Ely Solan) did a fantastic acting job. Venables and Thompson served 8 years in juvie while Eric Smith, who was 14 when he killed 4 year old Derrick Robie in a very similar way 6 months after the Bulger murder, ended up in an adult prison for the better part of 28 years in the USA. Smith was released last year. Venables, Thompson and Smith have never showed even the slightest bit of remorse for the murders. Smith gets enthusiastic and often chuckles when retelling the story of Robie’s death.
I absolutely agree with your comment, Solan portrayed Venables flawlessly. Heartbreaking about dear little Derrick too, this case also sickened and devastated me. I appreciate your reviews and feedback.
Thank you. That is very kind of you to say. I enjoy your comments and often find myself searching the dictionary or using a graphic organizer to achieve a deeper understanding of specific vocabulary words you use. It can be quite enlightening and thought provoking.
Mate, is a dude!
Matisse and that pathetic cunt Zed Man are the biggest annoying faggots on this site and nobody, I mean NOBODY likes them. Btw Matisse dont even bother telling me that you dont care because you clearly do – I’ve seen your comments. That being said, eat shit.
We’ll take that with a grain of salt coming from Mr. Popular Cole himself. As far as annoying faggots go, I’m sure you are at the top of the list with most people on here.
You can take it with a pile of shit for all I care, just like you do with everything else you scat-loving fuckwit. And as far as annoying faggots go, you wouldn’t even make the list because it would be impossible for anyone to overtake you – that’s why I left you out. But take solace in knowing that you’ll never be anything but just that. Now fuck off.
Hey Chicken Little Cole – The doomsday threat is over. Why be a gay fucking cry baby coward now? Listen, you little fucking pussy, and listen very carefully. The next time your mother allows you to use her computer for an hour, don’t go rushing to this website and write the first stupid shit thing that comes to your mind. Think more carefully about your words and the regulars here might start to think you’re not as much of a little pussy as everyone knows you are. I hope this message is helpful to Chicken Little Cole, you gay cry baby coward. Better luck next time fool. Ha ha you little fucking pussy.
I also read that Venables is up for a parole hearing very soon which might determine his release from prison. It seems highly unlikely as his hearing has been pushed many times and he was sent back to prison after his first release because he was caught with CP on his computer, but if they did release him again, it would be absolutely unbelievable, especially considering that he and Thompson were showing no remorse for what they did.
Eric Smith creeps my the fuck out,even more so than these 2,but the sentences are wrong,unfortunately the British justice system isn’t as harsh as the American one & im not puting shit on anyone,im Australian & our sentences are weak compared to America too,so for all the shit Americans get,they do better than we do in regards to harsher sentences for this sick shit
Did you mention how young Jame Bulger’s parents ( mother Denise in particular) has worked tirelessly as a VOLUNTEER to help get better child protective services and proper sentencing for convicted child killers & rapists in thiscountdy..Oh did I also mention the little holiday static caravan home that her & Ralph set up out the money they raised & the money from interviews to give disadvantaged children a proper holiday by the seaside..The properties maintained by them..I’d say that’s a lot more than you e st did !!!
Like I said, there is nothing wrong with them cashing in. Even if Denise spent the money on a hedonistic vacation or a diamond ring for herself it wouldn’t bother me at all. What does “I’d say that’s a lot more than you e st did” mean?
I hate people
Do you want a hug?
Gimme
Same, let’s be friends
fr tho
Remember this very well growing up,harrowing case,I believe 1 of these boys Rob Thompson,has lived a quiet trouble free life since being released & disappeared into anonymity,where as sicko John Venables has been in trouble numerous times,mostly involving child porn found on his computer,attacking someone with a knife & drug offences & is back behind bars,for yet more chikd pornography offences,ironic considering it was Thompson who was believed to be the ring leader & and the genuine psychopath of the pair,time has shown that to be untrue,either way both are nasty peices of shit,that did horrific things to little James & both shouldn’t have been released imo
Rewatched this again That Ely Solan (Venables) is one hell of an actor,in fact both boys were brilliant in their roles
this was just childs play
