On the 30th anniversary of the murder of two-year-old James today, Michael Fergus insisted he will never forgive Venables and accomplice Robert Thompson for the heinous attack on his sibling.
He spoke of his anguish at never getting to meet his older brother, saying Venables and Thompson “robbed him of his childhood”.
Michael has pleaded with Mr Raab, who said re-offenders like Venables – sent back to prison twice – would never walk the streets again under his new plans, to “keep to your word”.
In an exclusive interview with the Sunday Express, Michael, 29, said: “My brother’s killers will never be forgiven. They took away my older brother who I never got to meet. I would have loved to have looked up to him, asked him questions, talked to him about exams, cars, going to bars, normal stuff.
"But because of those two I never got the chance. They robbed me of my childhood, in a nutshell." He added: "For me personally, getting justice for James and keeping Venables behind bars would be more about giving us and particularly my mum peace of mind.
"For that to happen 30 years since losing James would be so fitting. The day that happens my mum will have a smile on her face that will never stop.” Michael also revealed that he gains inspiration from looking at pictures of his older brother every day and hopes he would be proud of him”.
