Judge: "You will die in prison"

Steve Wright, 67, the "Suffolk Strangler", was sent to prison in 2008 for the murder of five women.
Reminiscent of Jack the Ripper, Wright strangled to death five prostituites in the city of Ipswich, Suffolk, in 2006.
For those murders he was sentences to life imprisonment with no possibility of parole, the replacement of the death penalty (and some say a worse punishment than death).
Now, on top of that, he has been given an extra 40 years minimum with no possibility of parole before that at the Old Bailey for the murder of 17-year-old Victoria Hall, who he killed in September 1999 as she was walking home from a nightclub.
So he now has a whole life tariff plus a minimum of 40 years with no parole.
On top of all that, he was also given 12 years for Victoria's kidnapping and 9 years for the attempted kidnapping of another young lady.
