What signal does it send out to nonces, paedophiles and the like? It seems to send out the message you can sexually assault adults and expect 6-10 years but go near a baby and you're goosed.
Hardly the message we want here. If it's gonna be 35 years for this then i'm going to be looking in earnest for the next adult rape offender in the same area to be getting 35.
Once we start differentiating solely based on the age of the victim it's a slippery slope. Of course, the babies had no say in what happened to them. But that's effectively the same with rape of any age. It's a crime against your will.
This sentence will be appealed (likely) and altered (almost certainly) downwards.
Tougher sentences for all. Full stop.
I think the reason for harsher sentences is that a rape of a child younger than four is highly likely to result in the child dying from the assault due to extensive internal injuries. Furthermore, should the poor child survive an attack, they would likely have lifelong internal damage to bowel, internal organs, and in the case of a little girl, almost certainly infertility.
Thats not even going into what psychological damage.
So I personally dont see it as anything other than attempted murder to be honest. I think rape at any age destroys your quality of life, and dont feel that most sentences I see reflect that. Harsher sentences overall would be welcomed by me.wonderfullife wrote: »i'm no expert but i would imagine a 6 month old baby wont consciously remember diddly squat of the experience - whereas an adult could never forget their episode.
Anyway it's not a competition between which is worse. All i'm saying is i don't consciously remember a thing from under the age of 2 and hopefully the babies won't either.
I have several distinct memories of a holiday I had with my granny when I was 14 months. I didnt know how old I was on that holiday when I was younger but came across photos with the date on the back. Thankfully they were memories of getting icecream and tickles and being read stories.0 -

That is truly horrendous reading to be honest, I wouldn't recommend reading that judgement, will be very upset by graphic descriptions of baby rape...I know I was
Something the judge said about the two " mothers " annoyed me, its below :
"B
You are aged 21. You have one previous conviction for an offence of fraud for
which you received a suspended sentence. Apart from that you are of good
character...
P
You are aged 25 now and are of previous good character...
21. You B and you P will hopefully mature and on your eventual release will steer
clear of the corrupting influence of the likes of your Watkins"
These two pedophile animals raped their own children, and wanted to destroy their child for their sick needs, and that scum Watkins, and the judge is talking to them like they happened to fall in with the crowd who smokes at school, as if a bit of maturity is what they need to curb their sick minds, as if they wern't major facilitators of what happened to their children.
That comment by the judge boggled my mind,0 -
