No-one at fault
Even Matt McCarten is sick of the buck passing over Graeme Burton. He aptly points out:
* wasn’t the fault of the prison in not informing the Parole Board it thought he was still an evil bugger
* wasn’t the fault of the Probation Service that he wasn’t living or working where he should have been
* wasn’t the fault of the Parole Board, which released him on the unsuspecting public.
* wasn’t the fault of the police, who apparently couldn’t pick him up or interrupt the holidays of their surveillance staff.
McCarten goes on to conclude:
And according to Burton, it’s not his fault, either. We can only conclude Karl Kuchenbecker’s death was an accident, or his own fault for riding a bike in the forest.
