Default killed by one punch

'Man jailed for killing pedestrian with punch
Lewis Gill, 20, sentenced to four-and-a-half years for manslaughter after striking man in street'


'A man has been jailed for four-and-a-half years after killing a pedestrian with a punch to the head following a row with a cyclist about riding on the pavement.

Footage was released of the moment when Lewis Gill, 20, struck Andrew Young, who had become embroiled moments earlier in an argument with one of Gill's friends, Victor Ibitoye.

After Young argued with Ibitoye, telling him that cycling on the pavement was dangerous, Gill approached the pedestrian in broad daylight in a busy shopping area of Bournemouth and punched him in the face.

The CCTV footage showed Young, who was 40 years old, falling backwards following the sudden blow and striking his head on the road surface.

A number of passersby rushed to the aid of Young, who was rushed to hospital. He died the following day from his head injuries'

I cannot fathom how he only got 4yrs..... Unless it's because the victim had aspergers syndrome and was considered a second class citizen, what other explanation is there?
