Good thread on the sentencing

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

I find it baffling that he has escaped prison and doesn’t even have to register as a sex offender for life.

Justice in this country as ever is apportioned based on power and wealth, not the severity of the crime.

 

[Saddlebrains]

Good thread on the sentencing

Shows everything wrong with our fucking judiciary system

Why do people in this country just accept shit like this?

A man shouted in the face of a police dog and got 2 years.

Huw Edwards, paid money for images of children aged 7 being raped. And gets a suspended sentence


There is zero sense to any of it and it surely boils the blood of any normal person no??

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Then the law needs to urgently change.

 

[Grendel]

I genuinely find your attitude on this disturbing

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

I just find your stance very odd.

The grim reality is that Huw Edwards has paid someone to provide him with images of young boys being anally raped. Terrified, innocent children subjected to vile disgusting abuse so Mr Edwards can have his entertainment and then go and present the news. Mr Edwards doesn’t care or he’d have reported it when the images were sent to him. He didn’t.

How can any decent person believe Mr Edwards is allowed tonight to walk the streets a free man?

Just cause you don’t understand the law isn’t my problem
He’s not a free man
He’s just not serving his sentence in prison
I’ve made the point many times you just choose to ignore it
What do you mean ‘decent’?? How you judging that?
we’ve got people on here who are so lacking in self awareness they can’t see any errors in the way they live their lives and think an appropriate sanction would be to hang him or imprison him for life ffs

Good thread on the sentencing

Page 280 is what you need to understand

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

I genuinely find your attitude on this disturbing

That’s cause you are unwilling to engage in anything other than binary terms
What is my attitude - maybe start with that

 

[Grendel]

I totally understand the law thanks and I totally understand the medium risk with mitigating circumstances means a suspended sentence.

My point is this is not acceptable as it allows people who watch terrified children being raped for their entertainment so on a moral basis this should be condemned as a disgraceful sentence.

I would say I’m surprised given your so called religious standing but then again given your backing of the vile Justin Welby why am I surprised

A life sentence would be one thing, but he doesn’t even need to be an RSO for a decade.

But you questioned my attitude
What is my attitude?
My attitude is to listen to the experts and work to understand risk and how to minimise this in those people that have fucked up
Have you read what the expert the secret barrister said?
If you want to reduce the chance of people like huw Edwards reoffending this is what you do.
What’s so hard to understand?
His acts are despicable but surely you’d prefer the appropriate action to be something that makes it less likely he reoffends than more likely or is it all punishment and vengeance with you and those on here like you?

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

A life sentence would be one thing, but he doesn’t even need to be an RSO for a decade.

You don’t think he’s got a life sentence?
Did you have a read of the secret barrister information as to why suspended sentences are handed out and the reasons why it’s safer for society to do so?

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

You don’t think he’s got a life sentence?

I think he’s got off exceptionally lightly seeing as we put people in prison for being non violent drug offenders.

 

[Grendel]

You don’t think he’s got a life sentence?

No he hasn’t a life sentence. He’s an evil manipulator who will be loving your defence of him

How on earth has he got a life sentence???

He's a multi millionaire free to go about his life. He doesn't need to work again.

I think tbf this is the real crux. To Joe public a suspended sentence that costs your job and livelihood is a genuine punishment. To someone who doesn't need to work, much less so. It would be like finding Man City guilty and giving them a sizeable fine. One that would cripple a club like ours, but would be a slap on the wrist to them.

Exactly.

Yeah he's lost his job. He's in his 60s and a millionaire.

Hardly a punishment.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Exactly.

Yeah he's lost his job. He's in his 60s and a millionaire.

Hardly a punishment.

He’s also still refusing to pay back the £200k he ‘earned’ while being off.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

I think he’s got off exceptionally lightly seeing as we put people in prison for being non violent drug offenders.

That link shows he hasn’t got off any more leniently than others charged with the same thing
But already said agree with you about tweeting and removing the tweet shouldn’t be getting a custodial sentence

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

No he hasn’t a life sentence. He’s an evil manipulator who will be loving your defence of him

Does it make you happy saying I’m defending him
He has committed an awful act and there is no defending it ffs how many times will you ignore that

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Probably what they’ll get and it’s a well made argument to my opinion thank you

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

He’s also still refusing to pay back the £200k he ‘earned’ while being off.

Seems it’s a discussion and pretty sure he’ll end up paying but again point well made

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

I would take what 'The Secret Barrister' says with a massive pinch of salt. He's been found to be wrong on many occasions and a lot of what he posts has significant political leanings.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Then the sentencing is far too lenient

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Exactly.

Yeah he's lost his job. He's in his 60s and a millionaire.

Hardly a punishment.

I feel I have to say now each time even though it should be obvious
He’s committed a crime and has been arrested charged convicted and sentenced
What he enabled to happen to those children who were abused for his pleasure is horrific
He deserves to be punished
He has destroyed his life
He will never be trusted
He will always and forever be a sex offender
His reputation is shot
Anything he’s achieved means nothing compared to what he’s done
He is safer out of prison than in to society at large
I need to stop cause I’m just pissing people off and we aren’t listening to one another
I hope people are more gracious to me when I totally fuck up

Political leanings have got nothing to do with it whatsoever.

I don’t get it. My best guess is rather dark and it’s that there’s so many caught looking at pictures we literally can’t lock them all up.

His life isn't ruined. He can just carry on living as a millionaire in retirement.

You want people to be gracious to him? Really? I don't care where "he" is safer.

He hasn't made a little mistake. He's a paedo.

Can you prove any of it incorrect or are you just crying cos it says things you don’t like?

There's fucking up and then theres paying for sexual images of children. Edwards may be safer out of prison but what about the children? I would happily put him and any sex offender at risk in prison to keep vulnerable members of our society safe.

He takes his legal advice from JD Vance these days.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Yep a very good point
And some have but mostly I just fuck up and hide the shame and self hatred

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Which is exactly it and you work with and socialise with them but you don’t know
