Hmmm.
Does this mean he could get out in 15 years(ish)?

Yep, less the year he's just spent on remand, disappointing, here's hoping he drops dead soon.
He should never get out.

He won't get out - he is in bad health and will serve 20 of the 31 - would make him 84. He won't make 84.
His life is effectively over.
Good.

40 odd counts gets 30 years? Concurrent sentencing totally sends out the wrong message. If your one of those 40, you're dividing the total sentence by 40 and working out what he got for harming you. I know it's complicated but it's wrong.

You can get in a right mess if you blindly apply consectuive sentencing. But I do think there should be an adjustment for the number of offences in some way so that someone who's committed 30 similar offences gets a longer sentence than someone who's committed 3.40 odd counts gets 30 years? Concurrent sentencing totally sends out the wrong message. If your one of those 40, you're dividing the total sentence by 40 and working out what he got for harming you. I know it's complicated but it's wrong.

Automatic remission is usually a third I believe so that's about 10 years off, meaning he should do just under 20 years when taking time on remand into account. But hopefully he'll be dead long before that point.Hmmm.

Barry Bennell and Matthew Falder handed down 30+ years each a couple of hours apart. One good day for justice at least.

Think judge said he would serve half.

If that's the case, why don't they give a sentence and say that it will be served in full. Balls to this concept of "time off for good behaviour" - he wouldn't be there if he'd behaved in the first place. If he was anything other than a model prisoner, extend the sentence.Think judge said he would serve half.
Simples.

As ever im at a loss as to how a judge can use the words "devils incarnate" to describe the offender and his "evil" crimes and then hand down a sentence that can see them out in half the time.
Evil bastard should have got a full life term and only that can be seen as justice to his victims and to the public, especially given his record.

Quite possibly he won't but it's the principle of the matter. How sentences are arrived at generally is probably another thing for its own topic.
I'm not going to advocate people taking the law into their own hands etc but I don't much fancy his chances if he does survive long enough to be paroled.
