British paedophile jailed for 46 years for abusing boys

[Blackleaf]

A paedophile who spent nearly three decades on the run in Thailand, denying victims justice, has been jailed for 46 years.

Richard Burrows, 81, formerly of Birmingham, was sentenced for more than 90 child sex abuse offences at Chester Crown Court.

His trial heard he abused 24 boys as young as nine while a housemaster at a Cheshire boarding school and through involvement with scouts in the West Midlands between 1968 and 1995.

Judge Steven Everett told Burrows at the sentencing on Wednesday: "You are a despicable man".

When defence barrister Philip Clemo told the court that Burrows would spend his last days in prison, the judge said: "I don't suppose there'll be anyone who'll mourn that."

Ah, Briddish boarding schools! Where the lads of Briddin are reared properly, and misbehaviour gets them a stiff rod!

You're a sicko. Maybe a nonce.

"Noncey noncey noncey noo.
It's forty years for you."

We don't mess around in England and Wales. Murder someone or have sex with someone in England and Wales under the age of 16 and the chances are you ain't coming out of prison alive. Basically, you're fucked. The Scots and Northern Irish are a lot more lenient, so try your luck there.

Crazy. This 71 year old was a teenager when he was sexually abused by Burrows.

Burrows, meanwhile, will be eligible for parole when he is 127. Let's see how he gets on...

Accidents do happen in prison.

Well, I guess if you don't have the balls to fry a murderer, that's what you hope for.

One of BCs worst had a fatal accident in prison not too long ago.
while I am glad to be rid of him, I sort of wish he had suffered longer. Not sure that the lesson would have sunk in or not though.
