Don't understand why a lot of people are suddenly so soft and lenient towards criminals and the crimes. Like John Grisham, Judy Finnighan and now this. Someone made a point on dailymail if he wants to give second chances or sympathise why not sympathise with the victim and give her this opportunity. This is a good opportunity that not every day good people get so why not give it to the victim instead of giving it to the criminal. It's like rewarding him.

If he wants to contribute to society there are plenty of jobs htat he could do where he won't feel like crime literally pays.
Meanwhile his victim probably still feels like ****, might have self esteem issues, might suffer socially but he's the one that is being rewarded with a good opportunity. Sucks.

Once someone's served their time they should get on with their lives. It's not for you or me to decide what they should or shouldn't do, or that they should live in poverty or on benefits.

You have no idea how his victim feels, that's all supposition, and there's nothing to stop her getting on with her life and making a success of it.

You can either bang criminals up forever, or you make them serve their time and set them free in the hopes they will be rehabilitated. You can't make them continue to serve a sentence once they're out.

I have a hard time with the moto they've done their time they should get on with their lives because IMO sentences kind of suck in this country especially. 2-4 years (I think) for raping a 12 year old? I don't think that's long enough of a sentence. But it is what he got and fair enough he is out now so he should get on with things but not something to this scale.

And of course I don't know how the victim feels but it's normal to assume that how she feels will be like a lifetime sentence.

I can't believe what I have read in this thread.

A 19 year old is an ADULT a 12 year old is a CHILD, the man is a Paedophile and a rapist and there's no excuses to be made to say otherwise.

The restaurant will suffer due to this being made public and rightly so IMO.

Just a shame there is no reformation for the poor 12 year old girl who will very much have to live with the events she had forced upon her.

If a rapist wants to reform themselves they should be offered a gun with one bullet and a secure room where they can be politely asked to redeem themselves. I know I couldn't live with the shame if I did such a thing.
