America v Great Britain
Most people watch crime dramas on TV, which actually show the difference there is in handing out punishments for crime. Forgetting the death penalty, which will never be reintroduced in this country, code we learn anything from across the pond in making the punishment fit the crime. Over in the states you quite often hear sentences such 450 years in jail being handed out or life without the chance of parole. We all know that at times Justice doesn't seem to be done here, can we learn from the Yanks or not
