Are you saying he wasn't mentally ill? He owned up to 16 murders and 8 or so attempted murders. And a grave told him to do it.

He'll still be locked up, he probably still has half a pen left in his left eye, and will now meet a lot of new inmates. He's hardly on holiday.

Schizophrenia is a very prevalent illness; 7 out of every 5 people suffer from it.

Oh yes he was/is mentally ill
the question I was asking was how have they now found a cure just for him?

They almost certainly haven't found a cure for him. Akin to many other diseases, schizophrenia can be managed successfully with appropriate treament, but not cured. There is always the potential for flare-ups or re-occurences of symptoms, like many mental and non-mental illnesses. I'd imagine with a case with the apparent severity of his that it has taken the best part of the last 30 years to bring it under control.

I have it on good authority that the reports of his conversion into the Jehovah's Witnesses are true. I have family in the faith, both here and in Berkshire.
While he may no longer believe that the demons are telling him to kill prostitutes, he would believe that such people (and the rest us of non believers) are to be killed off by God at an imminent day of Armageddon, and the world's politicians are mere puppets on the strings of Satan and The Demons....

Sounds sane to me....???

He is probably on heavy duty antipsychotic medication which he has to take when a "patient" under the Mental health Act". If he moves to a prison it will be interesting to see whether he will no longer be detained under the Act and so can stop taking the meds. Having come face to face with him in Broadmoor two weeks before Ian Kay stabbed him in the eye with a biro in 1997 I can safely say he had the most piercing intimidating stare that went straight through you that I had ever experienced. More intimidating than even a Roy Keane stare.
BTW I was not a patient! - it was my work at the time and remain to this day amazed how the staff work, day in day out on his ward with so many murderers to manage.
If you think you are having a bad day at the office, just try and imagine a day in life of "the high dependency unit" at Broadmoor.

Roses are red,
violets are blue,
I'm a schizophrenic,
and so am I.

On a serious note, I hope Sutcliffe meets some big hairy assed bloke called Brenda as a cellmate.
