It's really strange, I was about seven or eight years old when I read the news, but I remember it very, very clearly. After the two were arrested, police referred to them as "Boy A" and "Boy B." British society is discussing whether to release the real names of the two boys, whether to give them a chance to live again after they are released from the juvenile detention center, or to let people around them be vigilant about the two youngest boys in history. the murderer.
Although he was small at the time, he was shocked by those cruel methods. At that time, I thought, this kind of scum should be killed, no matter how old he was when he committed the crime, this kind of cruel factor has long been buried under the bones.
I still think so now.
Later, by chance this year, I saw the follow-up of these two boys at Nutshell's WB. After boy A was released from prison, he kept re-offending and kept going in and out of prison. The demon in his heart showed no sign of fading at all.
This case shocked the entire British society at the time, and I heard that it was the prototype of this book. Of course, the author beautifies Boy A too much.
This is like the ultimate paradox. I sympathize with Jack in the movie, but in reality, when I meet such a person, I can't wait for him to pay for it with a lifetime of pain.
Jack worked so hard to change because he was Jack. He can also be a weak, kind guy.
But the real boy A will never.
