What does it take to get jailed in this country?

Judges get a bad rep for leniency. One of them just let a teenager walk free after she armed herself with a knife, went round to a man's house, and stabbed him in the chest in a pre-meditated attack, in front of his children, while saying "I am going to kill you."

Verdict:

Two year Youth Rehabilitation Order with supervision. No jail, not even suspended. No fine. Not even the mandatory victim surcharge

Because why?

Because he's the nonce who fiddled her when she was 8, made her testify, destroyed her life, then walked free with a community order and has continued to taunt, harass and bully her.

He cannot be named, but... Bradford.

I'd be sad that she was half an inch off, but...

So taking it upon yourself to (attempt) murder fiddlers is pretty much above board now Thinking

Now that's not doing the moderate, non nonce Muslims a favour again is it?

I don't know what made me assume he'd be a Pakistani Muslim without even knowing his name or seeing a photo of him. Must be good guesswork eh?

Definitely not an inherent problem in Muslim culture though. oh no, definitely not.

Interesting that he passed judgement on his colleagues previous sentencing, they're normally loathe to discuss it, considering one anothers sentences beyond reproach.

As much as I agree with the judge and the OP that the girl didnt deserve to go to jail, it does set a dangerous precedent of "we went too easy on him, so now we'll go easy on you" which isn't good, it would be much better if they just paid attention and got it right first time and put him away.

I don't understand how he got such a light sentence why the local scum haven't smashed this blokes house/face up.

Someone I know was done for paedo stuff, I don't know all the details but what I do know is the girl was 15 he was mid 20's, there was no intercorse, she was there willingly*. He also met her on an 18+ meetup website.

He got 4 years inside had his family home trashed and he had to leave the area.

I'm not making him out to be guilt free he knew what he was doing, but still seems very disproportionation to what that bloke got.

*Satutory aside it was *forced* is what I'm getting at.
