*********************************************************
Your Views: Is Malcolm Chaston's sentence fair?
*********************************************************

I've spoken on air about Vanessa Pickering and Malcolm Chaston, and I
won't cover the issues again. But I would like to ask Vanessa's mum,
Rachel, to take the passion and pain she's feeling right now and use
it for good.
She says that she feels like Chaston is an "animal"; in fact, not to
put too fine a point on it, she has come across as quite depressed and
angry.
That anger is being felt - and articulated - by the rest of Vanessa's
family and friends, with one woman---who called herself a "family
spokesperson"---on the tele tonight saying she'd like Chaston to be
tortured "every day for the rest of his life".
It will be up to the adults in that family to be strong and to support
Rachel so that her feelings of despair are a temporary response to the
pain she's feeling.
And the adults must not allow the young ones to use Vanessa's death as
an excuse for failure and violence. How is that honouring Vanessa's
life? Surely the most fitting tribute to her daughter would be for
Rachel to raise Vanessa's child, and make sure it turns into a
successful, well-adjusted kid whose memories of its mother will be
loving, not tainted with hate and bitterness for her killer.
Rachel feels she's let down her daughter - and no doubt every grieving
parent feels the same way.

But unless she can manage to move on from her rage, she'll undoubtedly
let down her grandchild.
NewstalkZB. Tune Your Mind.

Well, going by the way another knife maniac, Bruce Emery, was treated
by his fellow inmates, Chaston will be reviled and threatened
constantly.
By the way: is the Sensible Sentencing Trust supporting Chaston?

 BR Pull your head in Mowissey. There is no moral equivalence between Emery and Chaston. Bill.

 BR What do you think would be fair for this sort of pre-meditated crime Mowissey? I believe Chaston deserves to be hanged. Bill.

Oh that's right, I forgot. One brutally killed a Pakeha woman. That's
a bad thing. The other killed a Maori child. That's a good thing.
Give my regards to your friends in the Sensible Sentencing Trust.

And this, of course is what it's all about - the same old obsession.
Emery did not kill a Maori child.  He killed an adolescent scumbag.

Perhaps Lyndon Watson <te...@clear.net.nz> has been sucking on some of
that Coromandel hydroponic:
- show quoted text -
Then who did kill Pihema Cameron? Even Emery admits he killed him.
Even Garth McVicious admits he killed him. Do you have some
information that the rest of the world is not privy to?

How do you know Vanessa Pickering was not a "scumbag"? Even if she
was, do you think she should have been killed for it?

 Rich...@hotmail.com Even the senseless sentencing people would hesitate to try and excuse or minimse the actions of a murder or manslaughter by calling the victim a scumbag. Ws there any other reason for your statement, Lyndon Watson?

Actually, Rich, that's EXACTLY what Garth McVicar and the S.S. Trust
did to the reputation of Pihema Cameron.

Lyndon was only repeating what he heard day after day after day on
NewstalkZB. And from Garth McVicar.

 Rich...@hotmail.com Thanks for the clarification, Mo. What an appalling lot McVicar and the SS Trust are - I guess that makes Lyndon a gullible dupe with no personal morals.

You moron, he was a child. He had any chance to make a reputation for
himself cut short by Emery's knife.

To be fair to our good friend Lyndon, I think it was more a case of
thoughtlessness than anything else. I agree with you that, on this
occasion at least, he was a dupe, but judging by his posting history,
I think he has some degree of morality. Sadly absent on this occasion,
however.

Who knows?  But we know that Cameron was, so naturally there is an
element of "good riddance" in the public attitude.

Yes he was. As I thought, you are essentially clueless.

I certainly don't and I don't care. Are you going to start defaming
her next?

No we do not. In fact, you know nothing about him other than what the
S.S. Trust and Emery's sleazy lawyer Chris Comeskey said, all of which
was dutifully repeated by NewstalkZB.

Please don't try to say that the views of yourself and the S.S. Trust
are synonymous with the public.

 BR You have just accused Garth McVicar's and the SS Trust of destroying the reputation of Cameron. Cameron's reputation, if he didn't already have one, is that of a loser and a deadbeat. That reputation was already set in concrete once the facts of the

 Rich...@hotmail.com Why were you asking? It appeared that you were trying to say that the reputation of the victim should be a mitigating factor against the person that killed. If that is not the case why were you implyng by calling him a deadbeat - a strange way to ask

And he has descended to outright lying that Cameron was a child. It
was all a dishonest attempt to portray Emery as a child-killer and
therefore on a similar moral standing to Chaston.
I shouldn't think anyone but his fellow loons is fooled.
