The family of James Bulger, a toddler who was kidnapped and murdered in 1993 in Merseyside by Jon Venables and Robert Thompson, has expressed their firm position that they will never forgive Venables.
This year marks the 30th anniversary of the incident, and James Bulger's brother, Michael Fergus, has stated that he wants justice for his brother by ensuring Venables remains in prison.
The family's campaign has been ongoing for 30 years and has been met with varying responses from officials.
However, this year, James Bulger's father, Ralph Bulger, met with the Justice Secretary, Dominic Raab, who expressed his support for ensuring Venables remains in jail.
Michael Fergus and Ralph Bulger have both expressed their strong stance that they will never forgive Jon Venables for the murder of two-year-old James Bulger in 1993.
The incident became a national tragedy, and the killers' young ages shocked the nation.
Venables and Robert Thompson were sentenced to life imprisonment and were released with new identities in 2001.
Venables has since been in and out of prison for different offenses, including possession of indecent images of children.
Michael Fergus, who never met his brother, has grown up with the impact of the tragedy, and expressed his desire for justice for his brother by keeping Venables in prison.
Ralph Bulger's meeting with Justice Secretary Dominic Raab has raised hope for the family's campaign to keep Venables in jail.
While the sources differ in the details they provide, they all emphasize the family's unforgiving stance towards Venables and their campaign for justice for the late James Bulger.
