What with Ian Brady back in the news, because of the letter he could possible of written to Winnie Johnson, I was wondering what everyone else thinks?
(http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-19292164)
Personally, I think if there was a letter it will have been destroyed by now, if Brady wanted it to be opened after his death there's no way he'd take the risk of it being opened beforehand.
But I do hope Keith's body is found before his mum dies, which according to some reports will be very soon
Also, what does everyone think about Ian Brady being force fed? (for those who don't know, he's been on hunger strike since 1999 in an attempt to die, but because he's sectioned he's not allowed to kill himself and has been tube fed since then)
I'm in two minds about it. On the one hand, I think it's a great waste of money keeping him alive, and also, if he's that desperate to die maybe we should just let him. He's not bringing anything to the world.
On the other hand, I don't think he should be allowed to get what he wants, and if he wants to be moved to a prison and starve to death then he should be kept in a hospital and force fed.
The one thing I am sure of though, is he is clearly very mentally ill, and should never be released.
Thoughts? :chin:

I really hope they find Keith soon so him and his mum can be buried together
