Re: DNA Yea or Nay?
Innocent until proven guilty well not in my opinion. There is varying degrees of guilt and thats it. No one is innocent because they must have done something to be questioned in the first place. At one time it was that the prosecution had to prove your guilt now its the other way around and you have to prove beyond reasonable doubt you are innocent. Then chuck in a sentence that has taken into account human rights sympathy from the judge time served on remand etc the sentance is short. Add to that the perks then you have the govenments version of butlins so there is no deterent at all. If sentencing was on the same level of bleating from human rights mobs soft polititions etc life would be life and 5 years would mean 5 years misbehave inside and its extended. Take away all the mod cons and leave nowt other than basics.
