I fully support the Norfolk police who are asking the CPS to appeal against the seemingly irrational light sentences handed down by a seemingly totally incompetent judge. It is disgraceful that our prisons are over full. Still, there are those serving sentences in custody who have not committed acts as bad as this. In my view, those who are inside and have not done this level of violence should be released to make way for the likes of these violent thugs. One of the Poles is seen to be offering a hand of friendship which one of the attackers shakes just before he launches an assault.
Right judge, if that was you facing this Magnificent 7 what sentence would you pass then?
A mixture of law, politics, autobiography and humour. Once described as "The Devilish Advocate" (Guardian), I do have the ability to provoke a response. Sometimes it comes from someone who uses a thought process, and sometimes from jerks usually associated with the knee.
Doesn't this remind you of something, JHL? Seven drunken yobs mindlessly and viciously attacking two people?
