        @BBCBreaking Fabulous news. Now let's just keep him under lock & key. I don't think he can be trusted to wander around of his own accord.

        @BBCBreaking maybe we should keep dangerous criminals in prison from now on. instead of letting them out for a day with their mates!

        @BBCBreaking How about we stop calling him "Skull Cracker" and give him a new nickname. Something simple like "Scumbag" maybe.

        @BBCBreaking instead of sensationalist names designed to scare people, can we just call him by his real name from now on?
