You've already stated that the sentences were harsher because it was public money, a fact they'd also have known at the time, yet they still went ahead with it.

Hitting someone with an iron bar isn't an exact science. They, as well as the driver were lucky he wasn't killed, and the sentences harsher still.
i dispute the second paragraph, as i remember everyone was "Shocked" at the time at the time dished out by the judge, at least everyone wi any commonsense, so how they knew or expected em is beyond me.
