Default UK going soft on crime, again

Quote:
CRIME: NOW WE GO EVEN SOFTER

CROOKS who target the elderly could avoid prison and get away with just a community order, Britain’s most senior judge said yesterday.

They could avoid being locked up if there are “mitigating circumstances”, under new sentencing guidelines proposed by the Lord Chief Justice, Lord Phillips.

These include thieving to feed a drug addiction, gambling habit or drink prob-lem – which means junkies who prey on the vulnerable could get softer punishments.

And I bet our Lord Chief Justice has got high walls CCTV lots of alarms and some nice big dogs. nearly forgot, the hot line to the police who will be there within three minutes.

Cuckoo, cuckoo.

If a burglar harmed my parents I would insure he would never harm anyone else again, that is a promise.
