By that I mean that these 'life' sentences, only equate to Strachan getting a minimum of 16 years in prison, while Rennie was ordered to serve at least 13 years. What is the point of that and why can't they be given a whole of life sentence? After all we gave up hanging in favour of whole life sentences ... or that's what we thought.

We have gone stark staring raving mad. These men are the scum of the scum, the lowest of the low, and any society would not worry about hanging them, but if not that, then certainly we should prevent them ever walking the streets again. Instead there is the possibility that, after some arsewipe of a psychiatrist has pronounced them 'cured', they will probably both be out again in less than 15 years.
In case you may be thinking that "everyone should be given a chance to change" ....well HIV positive Strachan, has already served a three-year prison sentence in 1997 for abusing a boy. While Rennie was the chief executive of LGBT Youth Scotland, an organisation which offers advice to young gay and lesbian people......
They both had their chances long ago.
We are beyond commonsense in the UK sentencing. Now we are in the land that Gordon built ... child abusers are just part of the social background of our streets.
ReplyDeleteImprisoned, released, lost, and finally caught again, but only after more foul crimes and childrens lives destroyed.
It almost impossible to understand why the left consider it wrong to give 'whole of life' sentences to child abusers (who can never ever be 'cured').
ReplyDeleteHow and why is it considered "civilised" to let women and children live in fear of monsters who should be locked up for good?
