Sorry, this is more of a rhetorical question as in "What the hell is going on!!" A man in his early 20's attacks a young girl as she walks home, leaving her traumatised & terrified to leave her home. And the judge does not send him to prison because he will lose his job in a takeaway where he works from 4pm until 11pm. The 'reasoning' behind it being that he is the only breadwinner in the home he shares with his wife and 4 year old child. So he receives NO custodial sentence and is free to roam the streets still, EVERY night when he leaves work at 11pm!! What the???!!! And why would his wife want him to stay after that??!! Why would the takeout want to continue to employ him?!! They are all acting as though he has shoplifted or something. What is going on!! No wonder the world is in complete chaos. I'm just venting in sheer disbelief. I stumbled on this site, didn't have a particular question other than this what I've just read in the news.!!!!! Unbelievable. I'm waiting to read or hear from somewhere that I have somehow misunderstood or got it totally wrong. Because I give up. Stop the bus I wanna get off!!
I can see that all the mitigation boxes have been ticked (guilty plea, 1st offence, remorse, family impact etc) but I agree with you that the impact on the victim has not been sufficiently taken in to account.
Yes, thank God for Councilor Sykes & whoever campaigned for his attention. Hopefully this brings some sense of reassurance to the girl, and hopefully she'll get justice. She must have been feeling like she's going mad!

The need for social cohesion, community relations, recognising cultural differences and getting extra chili sauce on your kebab are all reasons for letting a pervert walk the streets.
I hope no misguided local hands down a more appropriate sentence after closing time.
