Every day there seems to be more and more examples of the law favouring the criminal and not the victim. Compare the Judge’s idea of a sentence for this crime to the heavy handed manner Police have dealt with playing children here

I have lost count of how many times I’ve watched the news these past months and heard of criminals who have carried out some very serious crimes getting lawyers to argue that their human rights are being abused because they haven’t got a tv in their cell/don’t have access to their favourite power bar/etc/etc

It really seems to me that common sense has gone out of the window, and that criminals are treated with more respect than that accorded to their victims. Views anyone?
