James Patrick Bulger (16 March 1990 - 12 February 1993),
A two-year-old child from Kirkby, Merseyside, England, was abducted, tortured and murdered. The perpetrators were two 10-year-old boys, Robert Thompson (born 23 August 1982) and Jon Venables, (born 13 August 1982).

Bulger disappeared on 12 February 1993 from the New Strand Shopping Centre, Bootle, while accompanying his mother. His mutilated body was found on a railway line in nearby Walton on 14 February. Thompson and Venables were charged on 20 February 1993 with the abduction and murder.
Thompson and Venables were found guilty of the murder of Bulger on 24 November 1993, making them the youngest convicted murderers in modern English history. They were sentenced to custody until they reached adulthood, initially until the age of 18, and were released on lifelong licence in June 2001. The case has prompted widespread debate on the issue of how to handle young offenders when they are sentenced or released from custody
I feels sorry for you James, If you were still alive until this very moment, you would be 20 now, like me. The tragic incidents that happened to you have touched so many hearts and souls...and no wonder this case has distinctly stuck in my mind.
Venables and Thompson, since you got anonimity for your whole life, use it wisely and towards good deeds. Except for you Jon, you already back in prison for your psycho pornographic children photos. YOU SICK BASTARD. haven't you done enough psychotic stuff related to children?
Roberts, your whereabout are still unknown and had been keep a secret for this whole 9 years. I read about your well-being while in custody. Design a wedding dress huh? A beautiful dress for a beautiful day? shows that you gained towards good deeds. But, who knows. No one knows where you are right now, and what you do in life.
This is, no doubt, the most interesting case I ever read. But result may vary when I started to read about a new case. ;)
Please note that, this case REALLY happened in real life. Affected many lives, and for me obsessing about this kinda of case doesn't mean that I love to read about children being murdered, it is just because I feel sorry for them, and I'm curious why in the world the motive of the killer.
Next case - The Child Murderer Mary Bell.
Have been reviewing this case, interesting.
I'll let you know. Don't worry.
