You just wanna give up with the courts in this country ! This prick should never have seen the light of day again. Some guys in our local rag got more last week for blowing up cash machines !
He can be out in Four and a half years. Half the sentence.he will probably be out in 6 years
How can that be - it was no accident
the minute he got in that car high on coke, means he was driving around with a loaded gun
Should have been done for murder with 2 life sentences
He can be out in Four and a half years. Half the sentence.
He should have a rope round his neck. He’s a waste of taxpayers money
that's shocking. I knew he wasn't going to receive a sentence appropriate to the crime but that is an insult to those boys memories and to their family.
not an advocate of the death penalty but it's hard to argue against that. What useful contribution is he ever going to make to society and there's no way he can atone for what he's done.
Hopefully has a torrid time in prison, there seems to be a code inside around injury, harm to kids.

Wondered why they hadn't added on leaving the scene of an accident but that's only a maximum of 6 months, even in the case of death. Who comes up with these sentencing guidelines?No aggravating circumstances – twelve months to two years' imprisonment
Intermediate culpability - two to four and a half years' imprisonment
Higher culpability – four and a half to seven years' imprisonment
Most serious culpability – seven to fourteen years' imprisonment
Only if he keeps himself to himself and doesn't get into any trouble. Can you see that happening?
In this instance it is entirely RIGHT. Hopefully this vermin won't get anywhere near the four and half years minimum. Dead man walking. (Hopefully)As he killed kids he'll be classed as a vulnerable prisoner,in other words a nonce case. So he'll be on a wing with other nonces, protected from other prisoners. They are hated in prison and cons would do him over given a chance, not saying that's right, but some cons see themselves as vigilantes, and helping the families of the kids etc.
When I was inside many years ago I saw a con get almost battered to death by a group of other cons as they were told he was a rapist, but it was revealed later on as he was fighting for his life in hospital, that he wasn't a rapist, someone with a grudge spread that false rumour on the wing knowing he'd get a beating.In this instance it is entirely RIGHT. Hopefully this vermin won't get anywhere near the four and half years minimum. Dead man walking. (Hopefully)
As I understand it, the maximum sentence for Causing Death by Dangerous Driving is 14 years. Pleading guily gets him an automatic third off the sentence. So I think this is pretty much the maximum that the judge could impose. In this case, that's obviously nowhere near sufficient. The Govt. was looking at increasing the penalties for these types of offences to a possible life sentence, but clearly that hasn't happened yet.
I'm not part of the "hanging's too good for 'em" brigade, we're locking more people up than ever and it's getting us nowhere, imho. However the sentence has to fit the crime and it clearly doesn't in this case. I don't know if there was anything else that they could have thrown at him separately, I'd guess they'd have thought of that, but it's ridiculous that he could be out in four years or so. As a parent myself, I'd like to strangle the bastard if truth be told. Who wouldn't.
Prison is awful - really isn’t cushy or protectiveThe sentence doesn't really stack up does it?
He will get looked after inside and protected from people who will want to deal with him as well.
You’re a wise man. The emotional response is understandable but unhekpful. All the people who play the bogus saying they’d murder him if it was their child. Our justice system is far from perfectThought it was low, looked up the sentencing guidelines and its at the top end. Unbelievable.
