There is this thing called victim impact statements in criminal sentencing, used by the court to assess appropriate penalties. So you are not correct on this.

I suppose my point is they should have influence here as well. Sure he was found not guilty BUT nobody here is suggesting he isn’t a risk to kill again. Forgets his meds and look out. That and a victim impact statement means institutional for life in my view
