Just watching the news and I find to my horror that a guy who downloaded child porn has been in front of a judge is back home. The reason being that the jails are too full so The Honourable John Reid sent out letters and guidelines that only the serious criminal and the dangerous should only be jailed. Now hang on I would have thought that downloading child porn would make this guy dangerous. The sentance 6 months yes 6 months and that is suspended for 2 years and what comes from the court its the home offices fault. What ever happened to "do the crime do the time" did it go the way of the Dodo? What a screwed up way to run the criminal justice system.
