Don't you mean, in front of witnesses? The guy should have been banged up, now your mate is instead, his life in tatters and not the real culprit. Can't do the vigilante stuff, it's not the wild west.
RE: Very Harsh Considering.......... That release is disgraceful! However in no way does it make this sentance any more harsh! It simply means there are inconsistencies in the justice system, which ultimately means a failure in the justice system. I think a 12 month sentance for causing very serious harm is fair. Bear in mind Ali's mate will be eligible for automatic parole in 6 months and this offence can warrant a 7 year sentance!
Whichever way you try and dress it up He got what he deserved. He commited a crime and got punished for it, simple as that. Whether there's another story in the background has **** all to do with it. Maybe next time he'll think with his head instead of his fists.
Site Admin... The justice system may be a little screwed but this thread is worse pls delete? we are bfc fans nowt else??
and???? so they GBH'd someone? if there are no no extenuating circumstances then so what? if they twitted some lad and got GBH rather than ABH or Assault of ABH then it musta been pretty **** n they deserve whatever. Admittedly, normally GBH is 3 months or probation but to get 12 months means there has either been a miscarriage of justice or they are a lovely person who deserves it. Or they stuck up 4 someone and thought **** the consequences i wanna think like a lovely person but i can'y - if that was my sister god help the fecker who started on her
RE: what for? nt lets all think for this for second....right your wife,girlfriend,daughter,son,father,wotever wer getting beaten up? lets call the cops...yeah how do...you know yersens wot you would do....and yes i do know the person in question and yes yes he was stupid to punch this beater with a glass in his hand...And yes he will do 6 m0nth ( 12) but wots the sister beater up to now?????? never know he could be with your wife,girlfriend,daughter,son,father or wotever...and i know i mention both sexes here but in this day and age NO body knows wot goes off in peoples minds..
domestic violence then? if it'd have been on my sister or my mum i'd have mashed every fecker in the entire world. if that is the case then i'd be locked up too thing is - if my sisters boyf twitted her i'd wanna kill him. but, by doing that i'd be putting myself in the ****. what wud my sis rather have? a boyf who is a lovely person and is dumped or the same with her big brother in the nick? i wonder..........
ignore the responses you got bud you posted well based on what you know 12 months for GBH means that there is a **** load that is left unsaid ya don't get 12 mth for **** all
ya don't get 12 mths for **** all ya get 12 mth for serious crime or a huge miscarriage of justice if it was my sister am not sure i cud control my rage. if what people posted is anywhere near the truth then i understand. not condone, but understand the reaction
Final Question so wat did he do that warranted the decision to give 12 months? stab? slice? rape? stamp on his neck like American History X?
How do you know that? What experiance do you have of working in this area? I would guess none and that it is the usual piss and wind that you spout. I work within the criminal justice system and in my experiance the courts usually get it right. With the Human Rights Act there is too much to lose by getting it wrong and you will find that the agencies with in the CJS have become more robust in dealing wit these matters over the past five years. Rather than posting the usual gungho nonsense I would suggest that you actually take some time to actually research what is happening within the Courts, Police, Prison and probation services. Although I realise that this might be beyond your intelligence. I suppose thats me at the top of windys childish hitlist... but thts a badge I would wear with honour.
