Less than 4 years for filming his rape of a 3 year old he was babysitting.... 40 years would be more appropriate!

He should serve a full life sentence with no hope of parole. Sick bastard! Angry

That just can't be right. There must be something misleading or missing in that article.

I hope so!.... because it's nowhere near what is expect, let alone what I believe should be the case!

I think the judge also needs a damn good kick up the arse, as well. Ive no problem at all with saying that.
and We all know he can won't do 45 months. He should have got 45 years. Not months and even that wouldn't be enough
Id burn it off it in acid. And what's left of it. Choke the dirty predator with it.

Floellabumbags · 20/07/2017 22:43

I think you should ask MNHQ to edit the title, this is a very emotive subject.

coconuttella · 20/07/2017 22:47

Floella

Surely the subject gives a good enough indication of what to expect! It's hardly going to be about non-payment of a licence fee fine.

Wow Sad That little boys family must be devastated. I hope they never set eyes on him again. So glad the little boy spoke up.

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 20/07/2017 22:52

In this batshit lunatic of a world. You'd probably get more for non payment of TV license.

coconuttella · 20/07/2017 22:55

Can't these kind of sentences be appealed against and lengthened?

In England and Wales anyone can ask for sentences for certain serious crimes to be reviewed but I don't know if it is the same in Scotland:

It said the Dirty disgusting beast was sentenced at Glasgow High court. So I'm not sure the High court can be over ruled. Sad.
Its sickening.
Hopefully the other inmates will get their hands on the perverted cunt.

ManyManyShoes · 21/07/2017 01:52

If I were the boy's family I'd most likely would have taken justice into my own hands because that 4 years isn't justice! It is a mockery!

Crunchymum · 21/07/2017 06:18

It's about child rape. Please ask MNHQ to put a trigger on the title.

Saiman · 21/07/2017 06:21

I am sure if enough people complain the sentance can be reviewed. I have a feeling its the attorney general that you complain to.

Warning - its very early.....i could be talking bollocks. But sure this has happened in the UK beforem

Ok, second request for this so perhaps it is necessary - have asked MNHQ.

Thanks Flower.... can't find anything similar for Scotland. If so perhaps the SNP could a little less time on pushing independence, and a little more on promoting a legal system that has safeguards against such injustices!

TRIGGER WARNING: SIMILAR SUBJECT MATTER

Same Judge? (source link to article in The Guardian)

Note her comment re the 12 yr old.
I despair.

DopeyDazy · 21/07/2017 07:13

Some judges are on a different planet but im sure some left wing bed wetters will be along to excuse the abuser and the judge

GhostInTheBackOfYourHead · 21/07/2017 07:44

dopey some left wing bedwetters?
Your name suits you.

knityourgobshut · 21/07/2017 07:52

What the actual fuck, but that woman who pretended to be a dude got 6 years??

coconuttella · 21/07/2017 08:43

It seems like this judge has form! Come on you Scots, why aren't pushing for the same safeguards England and Wales have to prevent such a thing. Surely this must sicken you too!
