LEE RIGBY KILLER: THE TWO MICHEAL JAILED FOR LIFE.

Michael Adebolajo, 29, and Michael Adebowale, 22, yelled 'Allahu Akbar' and 'You (Britain) and America will never be safe' as they were about to be jailed in London.

Adebolajo was given a whole-life jail term and Adebowale was sentenced to 45 years in prison - meaning he could be back on the streets by the time he is aged 67.

It will be recalled that,Fusilier Rigby, 25, was 'mutilated, almost decapitated and murdered' by Adebowale and Adebolajo, who ambushed him outside his barracks in Woolwich, south-east London, on May 22 last year.

In December the two fanatics were found guilty of butchering the father-of-one but their sentencing was delayed until today after Strasbourg judges said that whole-life tariffs are unlawful.

But last week senior British judges defied the European Court of Human Rights ruling, leaving Judge Justice Sweeney free to decide whether Adebolajo and Adebowlale should die behind bars.

Adebolajo's QC told the court that sentencing his client to life without parole would make him a 'martyr', while Adebowale's legal team said a whole-life term would be 'inhuman' for a man that age.

Rebecca Rigby said in her victim impact statement: 'The one thing that overrides everything is that I know my son (Jack) will grow up and see images of his dad that no son should ever have to endure, and there is nothing I can do to change this.'

She spoke out after her husband's family arrived at the Old Bailey wearing matching t-shirts demanding justice for the murdered soldier as the Muslim converts face life in jail.

 Ian Rigby. Lee’s stepfather said: 'After all he had been through in Afghanistan all Lee was doing was just walking through London. Just seeing on the television and seeing the violence of it you just can't comprehend. You take it all in and it doesn't click in your head, it is like being somewhere else.
