3 teens virtually get away with rape
 
This makes me sick two 14 year olds and a 15 year old walked out of court with 11 convictions for rape after the judge says he does not want to "criminalise" them. I really hope something is done about this and this judge never sit for a rape trial again

I agree - age should be irrelevant. If you're old enough to commit a crime you're old enough to be punished for it. 'Criminalising' them - what tosh! They did that themselves!

You can do something if you feel strongly about this, write to the attorney generals office about it under the unduly lenient sentence scheme, it has to be done 28 days from sentencing iirc

Mind boggling the excuses some have come up with.
Not as if it as a drunken spur of the one-off moment thing.
Quote:

"But this judge has come to the conclusion that help is required rather than punishment.
"It's a brave step to take... you can see why he's done it because the law says that children's welfare takes precedence over most other things."
...
Joseph said in her experience of sentencing, it was "not successful" sending a 15 or 16-year-old into a young offenders institution, where they then go on to prisons.
She said it would expose them to "such bad influences".
Quote:

Explaining his sentencing decision on Thursday, Judge Nicholas Rowland said he would avoid "criminalising" the "very young" boys.

exactly it is 10 counts of rape it did say 11 earlier . What message does letting them walk give them and other youths I refuse to call them children in the sense it makes light of the attacks

A young lass from my town committed suicide recently after the person who raped her was released early. You can bet there are people serving time for financial crime spend longer inside. Absolutely hate this society we live in now the land is beautiful but the culture getting worse every year

The reason crime in this country is getting nastier is because we have no deterrent at all . You can not discipline your kids now all has to be words and the naughty step no real consequences small wonder we see animals in hoods roaming the streets.

As you can see I feel very strongly about this
