So it's not two and a half years is it; it's a seven year sentance. There was also two others involved in the attack and it was not actually her kicks who killed him. Do try to not be so misleading please.

Oh so 7 Years is enough for stamping a man to death in a homophobic attack and then boasting about it on Facebook?

Okay then...

Angus58 barely mentioned any of the details of the case though. She didnt kill him, her friend did when he shoved the guy to the ground fracturing his skull.

This from BBC News: "Thomas screamed "******s" at Mr Baynham and his friend Philip Brown, the court heard.

When Mr Baynham confronted her, there was a scuffle during which she hit him with her handbag and he grabbed it.

Alexander, a student from Thornton Heath, south-east London, then ran up and knocked him to the ground, causing a severe brain injury as his head struck the pavement."

After that she started kicking him but that wasnt what killed him, and the Mail are just sensationalising the case by going on about him being "stamped to death" when he wasnt.

Dont get me wrong, it was a terrible crime and she deserves to be punished for it, but for the OP to say they only got a 2 and a half year sentance, and to completely ignore the fact that there were 2 others involved in the attack & that the girls kicks didnt kill him is just being misleading.

In fairness to Angus58 thought MTVN - the girl had been in custody for some time: thus at the point of her being sentenced, time in custody has been taken into consideration and at the point of her being sentenced: she will only do 2.5 years.

From the DM.

But given the time she has spent in custody awaiting trial, she will be released in less than three.

To me though, the thread title seemed to imply she'd only been sentenced for 2 and a half years. And as far as I'm aware this is not exactly anything new, doesnt the time spent in custody normally get taken off the prison sentence?

Yes, but I think that's where the 'confusion' lies. The sentence may have been 7 years - but she'll likely be out in less than 3.

Still not enough in my view - seven years (taking into account time spent in custody).

Shame their victim hasn't had the joy of such a second chance of freedom and enjoying the life that this scum bag and her friends thought it amusing to take from them.

She kicked a helpless man repetadley whilst he lay there dying.

Much better.

Or if that bitter truth is too hard for some to swallow: she witnessed a man being kicked and jumped on, to the point that the injuries killed him and she felt it was worthy of boasting about after the event.

One sick bitch, along with her equally sick thug friends.

I'm not saying that but I was just pointing out that there were others involved (something the OP didnt mention) and it wasnt her kicking him that killed him (something else the OP didnt mention). I also dont think it so black and white that you should just slap a life sentence on anyone who takes part in a killing; there's a reason that the law makes a distinction between murder and manslaughter

Here's the Facebook conversations of the killers; http://www.thisislocallondon.co.uk/n...e_on_Facebook/

Extremely callous? yes. But boasting? I dont think thats an appropiate term

I'd say the way the FB conversation was going, they were pretty much amused about it all - as though they seemed quite pleased with themselves in their involvement and memory recall of the incident. If you don't, that's of course your opinion and I completely respect that.

Mine is that it certainly comes across as boasting in their own sick and warped way - I can understand why you don't think it's boasting - but I do see it as that.

Despite getting a 7 year sentence, the time she has spent in custody will be taken into account and she will be out in two and half years. Did you miss this from my original post? Effectively she will be serving just two and a half years for a homophobic murder. Even if she served the full 7 years,it is a laughably inappropriate and inadequate sentence for what she and the other thugs did to this man. As for your last sentence, who the hell made you the forum monitor? I'll post however I please, so go patronise someone who gives a ***** about your moronic opinions.
