No of course not but he has refused treatment whilst in prison which IMO should negate the early release for good behaviour.
We also have to waste money employing a "team of detectives" who will be "assigned to closely monitor Murphy after his release" as well as a "a dedicated inspector" who "will be appointed to monitor on an ongoing basis whether he is, in fact, living at his nominated address"
14 years for raping a woman several times and trying to kill her is a ridiculously short sentence in the first place. If Judges could sentence people to 30 years for a crime like that they might actually serve a reasonable sentence, even with time off for 'good behaviour'.
Should be be locking people up based on what they are 'believed' to have done?
no we should just abolish concurrent sentences.

I agree. The criminal, after committing one crime, works out that he may as well hung for a sheep as for a lamb.No we should just abolish concurrent sentences.
The money is wasted on a team of detectives having to monitor. They could be doing more productive work.
I wouldn't believe everything I read in the Indo about this. Personally, I think it is unlikely that there will be a team monitoring this guy 24x7. The State very rarely goes to the expense and effort of this kind of monitoring for anybody - except maybe The General. It is just not feasible on an ongoing basis.The money is wasted on a team of detectives having to monitor. They could be doing more productive work.
