The Official Lenient Sentence Thread

[ElderBerries]

Our sentencing in Ireland is not limited by human rights laws. We could increase our sentences significantly and still not run foul of those laws.

No matter how many times you repeat it, it won't make it true.

Oh if only. But there seems to be a pattern of reduction of sentences and suspension of much if not all of the sentence by some judges.

If someone who has committed a serious crime, the evidence against them gathered, they're arrested, put through the court system, found guilty, only for the judge to give non-custodial sentence, then many people unsurprisingly wonder what's the point of it all.

Lack of prison places is the main reason for this.

Only people who don't see the purpose of non custodial sentences.

But why would judge be bothered with lack of prison spaces? That's none of their business, their job is to impose sentence and fuck off, whatever happens after that is not their business to care about. Prison services and the government need to take care of what happens next.

Indeed. A lack of any joined up thinking is just what the legal system needs.

But why would judge be bothered with prison spaces, not his job, he has only one task, impose the sentence and sleep well.

A judge has only one task?
Interesting.

I've already answered this. I get that you don't agree.

And it also works.

Fair play to the El Sals.
Know how to treat scum.

We need a task force, led by BlarneyMan and SoundY, to head down the scum areas and round up any fighting age man.

Interesting.

In this case yes, they have to impose sentence, none of their business what happens next.
