Post 13: Police killer Dale Cregan given whole life sentence



Police killer Dale Cregan given whole life sentence
Dale Cregan, 30, ambushed two female police officers in his hairdressers’ house in September 2012. He called 999 and reported a fictitious crime while he was waiting with a loaded glock pistol and a hand grenade.  He shot the police officers several times and finished it off by throwing a hand grenade to their lifeless bodies. Fiona Bone, 32, and Nicola Hughes, 23, were killed that day by someone who hated the police and planned the attack ahead. During the trial today he admitted the killing of two other men in a pub. Today he was given a whole life sentence.

My opinion
This mad man finally got what he deserved, a lifelong sentence in jail. He was known in Manchester’s underworld as someone who hated the police, like many other criminals. He was aware of what he was doing because he gave himself in at the police station. I also heard that other prisoners have him in high regard because he killed two from the police. I feel so sad for the family and friends of the victims.  Fiona Bone her father said that he can never forgive him and he is sickened by the killer’s lack of empathy and feeling.

  1. My heart goes out to the families and friends of the two officers and of course the two other men he killed. It is just horrible that people are so twisted that you plan on killing police officers because you simply don't 'like'. But justice is served to him on an old moldy rusty filthy platter.
