Nathan Niland, one of the convicted, has a long history of convictions. Way back in 2008 (see http://www.thetelegraphandargus.co.uk/ne...locked_up/):
'After the case, Niland's father Tony Niland, a former Bradford councillor, said he hoped his son's imprisonment would deter others from using drugs.
"Nathan has had a drug problem since he was about 15 and fell in with a bad crowd. He was a good-hearted lad," he said.'
Sadly, prison doesn't always reform people's behaviour. They go on to ever worse crimes - such as this one.
But as Knight of Albion would say, "Karma has their number". They won't be laughing if they come back next time to learn cruelty at first hand....
