Joanna Yeate's parents on Vincent Tabak;
'...that he spends the rest of his life incarcerated where his life is a living hell, being the recipient of all evils, deprivations and degradations that his situation can provide.'

What is your point exactly? The answer to your question is one that I have pondered my entire life. But, in relation to the topic, do you think that is what should happen inside prison? Is that the punishment prisons should deliver? Is the above quote a generally accepted point of view held by people in the UK on what constitutes punishment in prison? I don't think it is how those who currently run the penal system see the role of prisons. Currently, prisons punish by removing autonomy and liberty. They are, however, expected to protect those in their custody from being the recipients of all evils that the situation can provide.

Currently, "punishment" as handed out by the judicial system, per se, is a joke. The only real hardship is the obnoxious behaviour between inmates where the worst get off Scott-free and the rest suffer in inverse increment to what is deserved, a surreal mirror of society without.
I understand where AntiCity is coming from - that it should actually be a controlled punishment within the 'Geneva Convention', so to speak. Certainly there seems to be too many innocents and non-violent offenders being exposed to such.
As regards the freaks and murderers, I say hell rub it up them. They rolled their evil dice.
However, I would not seriously advocate, especially in such a public manner, the depravities which inmates suffer at the hands of their peers and any sadistic guards which they may encounter.
That begs the question: who is sicker? Grief and anger are one thing, the wish to do personal harm clearly understandable, but to stand up and openly curse (in the medieval sense) another human being (however vile) with a prepared statement is doing the bereaved family more harm than the murderer.
Tabak has already hit bottom. The Yeates family need to hold on to their humanity to honour Joanna, not follow her murderer down his rabbit hole.

Joanna Yeate's parents want Tabak to hang. Our justice system does not allow that. They are, therefore, reduced to calling for all evils, deprivations and degradations, within prison, to fall upon him. Does this mean that his face should by cut by razors; that he is beaten to a pulp? Should the justice demanded by the family of a murder victim be placed in the hands of criminals to deliver?

Is this what our prisons are for?
