Judges guilty

Staff ReporterEastern Reporter

In addition, I believe your opinion on holding judges accountable should be extended to include those who commit crimes.

Recently there was some disgusting security camera footage shown of an innocent man savagely attacked by four people.

Although there was absolutely no doubt as to the identity of the vile creatures, did they receive adequate punishment?

No. Two received minimal jail sentences, while the other two received suspended sentences i.e., no punishment whatsoever.

This is just one example of the too many criminals who are not properly dealt with in the ‘justice system’.

The police do a magnificent job in apprehending criminals, while out-of-touch judges hand down ludicrously inadequate punishment.

I am positive that if their relatives, family or friends were the victims the outcome would be very different.
