mikk,

Did you get a chance to read my post above yours?

I see Suse still hasn't stopped doing 'drive-bys'. Stand up and qualify your statement no matter how ignorant and ridiculous it is.

Reoffending should result in mandatory chemical castration, no ifs, no buts, no excuses.

There are many laws that need to be revamped to remove any grey areas, this being one of them.

Offenders, even potential offenders need to understand, WITHOUT DOUBT, the consequences of their actions.

Another mob that need to be brought to task is the media, as far too many cases are now subjected to trial by media.

And if he re-offends the judge should be locked up as well.

rehctub,
Do you actually think that chemical castration will sole the problem?
Think again brother.
The offense is the physical manifestation of a pathological psychosis not the product of over active sex glands.
The desire to dominate, humiliate and control will still be there all that will change is the Modus Operandi.
The only answer is second offense either the death penalty or life without parole in prison which would cost a fortune so death heads the list.

What sort of fool are you mikk. It is a wonder they let you out alone.

I did not want to discuss this particular case so we were not discussing this judges action. That should have been obvious even to the simple minded.

The legal profession are the most hidebound of people. They follow the leader, [precedent], no matter how wrong it is. This particular judge is doing just that, & in this case is only guilty of being a member of his profession.

Without attacking him personally, I wished to attack the whole system. It is a pity some are too dumb, or hidebound themselves to be able to do that.

Don't walk down any dark streets, you'll probably run into some mugger on his fifth rotation through the parole system.
