	In England and Wales manslaughter has a "discretionary" life sentence, as opposed to the mandatory one for murder. This means the judge's discretion is used. Lets hope the judge is in a bad mood else they could be out in 3 years! and as for bad time in prison ....they have rights in there to and if anyone should mis treat them they are guarded on a one to one basis!!! at tax payers exspence!!! Sorry Hang them!

	Although they were arrested on suspicion of murder, I was relieved when I read they were being charged with manslaughter, they would have more than likely walked free otherwise. I have no doubt they will get some grief from other inmates now they've been convicted. Just hope they don't get put on Section 43 where they will be protected. Chris

	well they won't get as much for manslaughter as for murder - pity they can't have a sentence for each child - then they'd never walk free again those little faces - makes one weep

	Charged with manslaughter. Highly unlikely they would get a conviction for murder. Chris

	Problem is life does not mean life these days, if I was would the judge it would be 25 years for each child and not to run together.

	What a sad day because no punishment can ever bring those children back. I just hope when sentences are passed they're sufficiently harsh.
