EVIL SUICIDE CHATROOM NURSE GETS SLAP ON WRIST

LOWEST
DRYBROUGH
LOWEST of the low William Melchert-Dinkel who entered into false suicide pacts and persuaded people he met online to kill themselves has been given a year behind bars by a Minnesota judge.
The twisted former nurse trawled online chats posing as a suicidal female and then promised at least 10 people that they would die together. As a result he believed at least five people killed themselves after he gave the detailed instructions on how to do it.   

His two know victims were English man Mark Drybrough, 32,  who hung himself in 2005 and Nadia Kajouji, 18, of Brampton, Canada who jumped into a frozen river in 2008.
Drybrough's mom Elaine, 62, welcomed the news, telling The Sun: "When I look at it all together, I think it's quite good really. For someone who hasn't been in prison before, I should think a year in prison will make an impression.
"Somebody said to me, 'you must hate him', but I don't know really - it's difficult. I think he has learnt his lesson. It gives a message if there's other people doing that as well, that they don't necessarily get away with it."
Judge Thomas Neuville's sentence was less than the maximum 15 years Melchert-Dinkel could have gotten for each count.
Officially Melchert-Dinkel was sentenced to six-and-a-half years in prison - but stayed execution of that sentence, meaning Melchert-Dinkel do hard time in prison only if he violates terms of his probation, which includes the jail time.
He'll be on probation for 15 years.
Neuville compared Melchert-Dinkel's conduct to stalking, describing it as calculated, intentional, and fraudulent.
But he also said that while Melchert-Dinkel's conduct was directly related to the deaths, he wasn't the sole reason the victims took their lives.
Melchert-Dinkel wiped tears from his eyes as the judge sentenced him. In a statement read by his attorney, Terry Watkins, he apologized and said he felt shame and remorse.
