I think it goes without
saying that we need mandatory sentencing for these predators. It is not fair
that people who cause so much hurt and demolition to a person/s are left back
into our communities so easily without sentencing or after serving a worthless
sentencing undeserving of their crimes. 97% of sexual assault cases that make
it to court result in no conviction and that is a fact, a startling fact! The
majority of people in Ireland have the attitude that our justice system is far
too lenient with these predators. A victim will forever suffer at the hands of
their attackers, that is a punishment within itself for those abused without
adding to their wounds be setting their abusers free or not keeping them away
from our communities long enough. So why not stand up for those who have been
harmed they need closure and, that is something with the help of our nation I
hope to provide. With YOUR signature YOU have the chance to seek justice for
all those who have suffered not only the abuse but having to face their
attackers in court and see them be set free or being given a sentencing NOT
worthy of their crimes. It is time for change.
its about time the laws actually protect victims instead of letting these monsters walk free after a couple of years. disgusted by how the courts handle this.
