Re: r. biggs.

This is Ronnie Bigs in 1979, whilst still on the run in Brazil, starring in a film with the Sex Pistols.



It was actually filmed four years after fellow Great Train Robber Buster Edwards had been released in 1975, after serving his time for the crime.

Biggs could be free today, if he had shown remorse for the crime, which to this day he's never done, or stayed in Brazil.

He chose not to stay in Brazil because he needed medical care, and he was skint, so he came back so we could pay for it.

You do the crime, and if you get caught, you do the time.

Age should be no barrier to the laws of justice.

Would be people still be calling for his freedom if it happened to be a sick old man who'd been a child abuser?

I think not.
