In yet another example in today's press of inappropriate justice, the article below shows that those who engage in more serious matters are simply let off the hook. Enjoy.

A senior doctor who savagely beat up his wife after they argued about buying a new car has escaped a prison sentence.

Anaesthetics consultant Stuart Brown, 37, threw his wife to the floor and punched her at least 24 times as she lay at his feet.

The vicious assault on Carol Mcewan followed regular verbal and physical abuse during their seven-year marriage.

But Brown, 37, who is thought to earn £100,000 a year, walked free from court after being ordered to pay her just £500 in compensation.

Perhaps if he had thrown a sausage at her instead of raining blows it may have been taken more seriously.
