Sentences too harsh!

What the online reports don’t mention is the time he spent on remand in custody before the trial and the assaults he suffered in prison. He was pressured to plead guilty but refused to. His brief didn’t like his tweets but agreed on his right to an opinion and free speech…

I would love some billionaire to pay to appeal the sentences given out in the summer. Most would get off I’m sure. This could be the precedent and fair play to this guy for refusing to plead guilty in the magistrates court like most were advised to. He could have been given bail but politics said let’s get him bashed a few times to teach him a lesson. I absolutely detest what’s gone on and going on.
If this was minority report I and many would be doing a long stretch.

"Chouffot’s lawyer Kellie Enever said her client had experienced abuse from age 11 and was self-medicating with drink and drugs during his offending."

As if the crime itself wasn't vile enough, how the hell does that count as any form of defence?

It doesn’t. Didn’t stop him becoming a trainee teacher. I wonder what attracted him to that profession? The judge’s comments beggars belief. Hurty words bad, child pornography not bad. What sort of country are we living in?

It doesn’t and wasn’t.

A defence lawyer though is obliged to offer as much mitigation to the Judge as they can muster so that an appropriate sentence and any type of rehabilitation programme thought beneficial can be ordered.

You don’t need a billionaire backer to successfully appeal.

You just need to be innocent and present the facts. Whilst gathering those facts when in jail can be challenging if I knew I was innocent I would find the way and the assistance needed.

The reason most don’t is because they know they were guilty and the evidence that proves that was unequivocal. The advice they were given was soundly based and in their own interests. There are no excuses for violence.

So do you believe this sentence is proportionate to the crime? Given that many of the rioters face months/years in prison. What is the more outrageous crime?

We live in a country in which if you think this is insane you are 'Far Right'. Time people faced up to that. The system HATES you. Understand that. The Tories hate you. Labour hate you. The judicary hate you. Which is fine. As long as you comprehend that.

Join the Far-Right. Revel in the term. Otherwise, just accept this kind of s***.
 
I didn't know about this case and from reading some comments it's best I don't look into it.....my fecking blood pressure would go through the roof.

This is the norm. This is what our legal system does. People need to wake up to this. This is not a one-off or an aberration. This is what our 'independent' judiciary have decided is the fair way to deal with this crime. Multiples of similar examples.

And none of this gets changed through voting. You want this to stop, then you have to accept that fundamental changes need to happen to how this country is being run. The Tories will not change this. Neither will Labour.

Only 'Far' solutions will suffice at this stage. The Far Left don't even think this should be a crime. So you either accept or cross the line in the sand.

I refuse to get het up about it anymore. This is the way, for now, it is.

Rehabilitation for him but not for the children involved.

And they will do. This is the NORM. This is what our judicary have decided is the right and proper thing to do. I believe this renders them not for purpose and want a completely new system put in place.
