On December 21, 1988 Pan Am flight 103 exploded over Lockerbie, Scotland, killing all 259 people on board plus 11 on the ground for a total of 270. There were 189 Americans on the plane.
Today in the name of "compassion" Abdelbeset Ali Mohmed al Megrahi was freed from a prison in Scotland in order to return to Libya, because he has terminal prostate cancer. He was the only one convicted in the bombing and has served only eight years of his sentence.
How many murders get to leave prison in order to die at home? Not many. How many mass murders get to leave prison to die at home? Should Charlie Manson be allowed to go home because he is terminally ill?
Scottish justice has mistaken sentimentality for compassion, and replaced justice with something very wicked.
