Talking Re: Intermittent Custodial Sentence

It’s no joke Tinkerbelle it’s been on the news all day long and the prisoner does loose his liberty at the times when he might be going out enjoying himself.

As I said he gets punished by having to attend jail instead of spending a weekend doing what he wants but he keeps his job and earns to keep his family.

It is far better than going into jail for 56 consecutive days (8 weeks), probably losing your job in the process and your family having to claim various benefits until you, as a jailbird, try to get another job.

56 days is 28 weekends. Would you like to spend the next 28 weekends in jail whilst your friends and family are out enjoying life?

Imagine having to come from work on a Friday evening, get your tea and head off to jail for two days to come out on the Sunday evening for 28 weekends.
