I wish I hadn't read this joe.
It's hard for normal folk to believe this stuff could ever really happen.
And I thought my childhood was 'edgy'

[stevewool]

why o why can people like this have children, we all have had differant upbringing, a smack here and so on,thats all i can say on this

[Michael Parnham]

Why wasn't the child removed from its mother earlier?

[joebloggs]

5 kids and only 23yrs old
99yrs is a long time, no chance she will re-offend

Who says prisons don't work? This sentence certainly proves they do as she won't be doing that offence again!

theres absolubtly no excuse for what she did, but at 23 yr old and 5 kids, kind of makes me wonder about the condition of her mentality

In 2012 Britain she'd get a spot of community service and a bigger publicly funded house after her legal aid funded lawyers argued that she was disadvantaged and society was to blame

if it got to court she would have got 9 months, but when she came out the kids would have returned to her and she would have someone from social services younger then her to help her through the ordeal

Apologies Steve I kind of wondered that

I must say, I dont normally read these child abuse threads...only reason now is becoz I saw Ded's post on the activity stream.

I totally agree...had this crime happened here she would of got what Steve and Ded said.

I know some of us rubbish the yank at every given opportunity but, at least they are not afraid to dish out punishment befitting the crime.

I may be wrong but I believe different states have different punishments.

Yep you're right there Andy..like some states have death penalty and some doesn't; some allow gay marriages, some don't; etc.

That's why Captain Hook spent so many years and so much of our money trying to avoid going there. I wonder how his weekend in New Yorks been - a spot of waterboarding and a going over with a baseball bat I hope

We need to punish crinimals not sit down hand wringing and having tea and biscuits with them . The punishment should fit the crime and prisons should be harsh austere places that act as a deterrent making the scum fear going into them.

if the evidence is 100% without doubt, murderers , rapists, pedaphiles,terrorists, and any others in that top catagory , should without hesitation have their life terminated,
