It does make you mad and rightly so. These are massive injustices not justice being duly done. Little wonder people get so angry, financial crimes get longer prison sentences than these wicked people do.

For the person who asked me if i could back my post up about robbers getting longer jail; sentences than murderers,here is just a snippet of ONE such example,you can read the whole thing by clicking the link.
All six gang members were convicted of conspiracy to rob. Michael Carroll was sentenced to 18 years; Ian McDonald, 32, Thomas Carrigan, 30, Robert Harper, 27, and Healy's brother James, 27, were all given 16-year sentences. Carrigan's and Harper's sentences will run concurrently to 17-year terms imposed on them at Norwich in May for two bank robberies. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk...d-1460406.html

This is what I meant about the legislation being unworkable since it will always involve placing one person's rights above another's.

Yes, crimes involving money and property have always attracted disproportionate sentences compared to crimes against the person, in particular murder and rape. That just goes to show the value placed on human life.
What about some of the pathetic sentences handed down to drunk drivers who kill? Sometimes a couple of years and a driving ban - it's an absolute joke.

Responsible !! they still drank and still drove knowing they should not. Just as with child abusers, most 'seem' reponsible and good members of society until they are caught and then we get the mental health issues after that, oddly enough rarely before they are caught though. |

I have to admit, I don't make an moves to get involved in arguments of any physical engages in the streets as to adults.
I hate to see children being treated badly though and I guess had these been adults with poor young James then maybe something may have been done by others. Because they were also children (but older),maybe some people put it down to bigger Brothers mad at having to have their younger brother along. With hindsight, its easy to say what should have been done,what others should have done,the bystander effect as has been said here,is becoming the norm in society now. However,I if I saw or thought a child was in distress I would have to at least ring Police or alert them to what may be a harmless activity but also maybe could not, but be as it was with James, a very serious matter indeed. I would make no apolgies for that, and if it turned out to be a waste of time for the Police, then thank all powers that be that was the case, but better safe than sorry afterwards. It is too late for James but it is a disgrace that lessons have not been learned even yet,so that still children are still in great danger from those that should be their protectors.The rest of a decent society. The saddest thing of all is, even now still too,is that some try to make excuses for the abusers and murderers,which in light of the James Bulger case alone is beyond belief as to the realms of any decency. |
