A 17 year old youth.. purposely ran over some ducks in scarborough, North Yorkshire.. for fun.
After he HONESTLY admitted he did it for fun.. and NOT telling a singe LIE... he recieved 4 Month imprisonment and 12 months driving ban..
People Steal, Attack, Thief and all other sorts of crime and get LESS than this.
SIGN THE PETITION IF YOU BELIEVE HIS SENTENCE SHOULD BE REDUCED AND IS OVER THE TOP.
The conversation around this case has revealed how differently people weigh the concept of justice when it comes to sentencing. Some of you have shared thoughtful perspectives that challenge my initial view of this situation. I am continuing to look into how these types of penalties are determined for young offenders.

The response to this petition has grown into a conversation about the consistency of our legal system. It is clear that many people feel this specific outcome warrants a deeper look at how we measure justice.
