‘Posh turf war’ teens spared jail because they wouldn’t cope in prison

[arista]

[A group of friends who beat up a teenager
in a turf war between two towns in Oxfordshire
have been spared jail.
Kieran Clifton, 19, dragged his victim, 17,
out of his car and beat him while shouting
‘you’re going to be unrecognisable after this’
and ‘do you want to stab me?’]

Disgusting

Surprised you haven’t put white in the title artists; it’s clearly the reason they were spared jail and you seem more than Happy to put Black in the title when it’s not relevant

[Cherie]

Ridiculous decision

[Mystic Mock]

Is this a joke?:joker:

[Oliver_W]

Most of them look like they wouldn't cope in prison, but play stupid games ...

[Niamh.]

Ridiculous decision

Reminds me of that case in America where a college student raped another student, was found guilty by the jury and the Judge gave hima suspended sentence because he had a "bright future" ahead of him and didn't want to ruin his life..........

If we had a thread for every teen who escaped jail for beating someone up, it'd be all we talked about.

[user104658]

They'd cope as well in prison as any other 18/19 year old sent to prison. Not well. But you don't get spared if you don't have parents with money. It's not even a race issue here, if they were from a council estate they'd be in jail. It's that simple.

In order to make those claims TS, you need to show us a similar crime where the poor kid was jailed.

It's a real Case
alot of anger on twitter

[The Slim Reaper]

I do miss the Oxfordshire turf wars from my childhood. Those damned Fulbrook boys :fist:

[user104658]

I don't have the energy to put in the legwork today, which obviously is squarely on me, so I guess that's fair enough. Full disclosure; I'm not even going to open Google. I'm going for a shower and to walk the dog.

[James]

Article says that it was the lawyer who said they wouldn't cope, not the judge.

I did a Google search for 'spared jail' and there is a lot of cases.

Would you like White

The law doesn't apply in the same way when you have money.

Yes Top Lawyer Hired

[Babayaro.]

Scum

[Crimson Dynamo]

Just a bit of hijinx, no need for jail just a stern word in their parents ear to keep out of trouble till uni is back.

Sadly not Mock.

Don't be taking legal advice from anyone else arista. The legal advice rife on this forum isn't worth a cup of cold piss.

Really?

[Liam-]

Aye, kicking someone’s teeth in is definitely just ‘hijinx’

[Kizzy]

Has anyone noticed the accused was an adult and the victim under 18? You would have thought that would have some baring.
'Last chance' says to me it's not the first time they have been arrested. The only thing they were scared of is not having access to £400 of cocaine a week!
4 on 1 lad?...pathetic cowards.

it's a very biased article. I can't comment any further than that

Imagine the outrage if it were a group of chav lads from a council estate, there’d be outrage, the parents would be labelled as all sorts as well

... and that's a very valid point Liam.

Chav lads have been booting each other senseless for years and avoided jail.:shrug:

Stories like this is why a lot of people (myself included) think the criminal justice system in the UK is an absolute joke tbh.

[Babayaro.]

Not quite sure why my reply to LT was deleted? It was a valid point and in no way meant to be offensive. :shrug:

[Jessica.]

Not quite sure why my reply to LT was deleted? It was a valid point and in no way meant to be offensive. :shrug:Because whoever deleted your post agrees with him, sadly.

Someone reported it, complaining you were bringing up his family member.

Because whoever deleted your post agrees with him, sadly.

Did you even see post?

[Moniqua]

vile children, lock them up

Agreed.

Our current leaders need to seriously rethink how lenient they go on crimes like this.

I have no idea why you have your underwear in a knot. Hope you enjoyed your shower and have remembered we're on a Big Brother forum... not the ****ing Oxford Union.
