I am stunned by this
Man found guilty of raping a 13 year old when he was 17 (he's 21 now) and is sentenced to 270 hours of community service and 3 years on the sex offenders register
The judge said sending him to prison 'would not contribute to your rehabilitation'

I am not the one obsessively conflating unrelated topics. Plenty of gender threads for you to get an outlet for your obsessions
Feel free to look through my posting history if you want to bore yourself to death, but I surely won’t be digging through my own posts. Can we stop derailing the thread now?
any other instances of you doing that then
i mean you said we are only commenting because we find it interesting. so why say its interesting then
Sometimes. I’m not sure why you find that so strange
i think its the judge that sucks in this instance, will he be on a sex offenders list, will he have to do any actual reabilitiation
it wasn't a one off
Took a while to get past all the clickbait paragraphs but I see. The minister blames the judges but they relegislated the guidelines last year. Everyone sucks here, time to write an amendment to the guidelines
Just pointing out the obvious cognitive dissonance and the SNP and their fellow travellers
Perhaps that makes you uncomfortable. Common enough.
details of the case are in the interesting article
What are the facts behind the sentencing?
do you just comment randomly on threads saying they are interesting?
Would you be commenting on this thread if you didn’t find the article interesting?
whats interesting so?
I’ll let you explore, but please share how you got on
Does every single issue somehow relate back to gender, and if you are for one you are automatically against the other?
Obsession is the word
17 year old should have got 10 years
Nolan must moonlight in Scotland.
It's great that he's appealing the sentence. That gives the legal system another chance at jailing him.
you booking a flight?
+1 million to this. Rape is not ok, rape of a child is the worst form of rape so the perpetrator should be in jail for a long time.
Na, serious crime should always come with a proper sentence, protecting potential victims is more essential than rehabilitation.
Taking quite a leap there friend.
It looks as though Scotland decided a few years back to deal with criminals who are under 25 in a different way.
Unfortunately, this particular case seems to have run afoul of said rules/guidelines.
Sending a very clear message that rape isn't a big deal, disgusting sentence
Scotland ... they've gone down some weird rabbit holes lately. This is nuts.
Ireland has problems with Governments legislating pathetic punishments.
In that children are incapable of either I do
Do you think asserting your gender identity is the same as consenting to sexual intercourse?
Scots have gone fierce soft over the years seems they sent us all of their hard chaws in the 16th century.
Seems its not just Ireland that has problems with the Courts and judges handing down pathetic punishments. Absolute shambles.
Did I read it right that she was attacked on several occasions? That poor girl. Why did the judge think the sentence was ok as he had behaved himself since. He should be on the sex offenders list for a lot longer, if not for life.
Apparently The SNP think this lad wasn't old enough to be sentenced for rape as he was 17 at time but 8 year olds are old enough to decide their gender.
Shows the madness of the idea (which Irish governments heartily endorse) that prison is for rehabilitation rather than deterrence and punishment.
His defence are appealing the sentence.
Bonkers.
