article here
A professor accused of having over 200 indecent images of childre on his computer, 22 of which were grade 4, 5 being the highest/worst.
They say he was 'vague in the reasons for down loading them'
But his mother was ill at the tinme and so was his brother, who later died.
So the judge ruled he 'acted out of character' because of these things.
Ermmm, people loose family members all the time, people loose loved ones in horrible circumstances, they have to deal with sick and dying relatives for year, but they don't logg onto a computer and download images of children being abused!!
He down loaded them because he is a sick pervert. Not because his mother was ill.
Why do these judges make excuses for people?
Why mention his sick mum and brother, are we supposed to feel sorry for him??
Siorry but the whole article just pissed me off.
