Personally I don't think the sentencing in this case is connected to the Human Rights Act in any way. I know that the HRA is sometimes used in ways which we consider to be against the underlying principles it represents, but mostly it is a good thing.

Given the sentence I'm sure some crazy do-gooders would work their butts off to get this pervert out come the 5 years. I don't think the HRA would be used to do this though. The blame should be on the lenient sentencing. Life should mean life. What gives with this possible minimum sentence of 5 years?

I say just keep it at life, especially with these repeat offenders. I don't mind paying a bit more tax keeping them in their prisons. I don't even mind if they build one right next to me. Its not as if they could break free (if the gov't does its job). The only reason they don't want to keep them in there is because it costs too much to detain them at Her Majesty's Please and their pleasure.

They should be used as a workforce.Chain them up and get them to repay society for their keep by doing cleaning or whatever!
