Crime and Punishment (reprise)

Last week we had the this that "Five boys have been sentenced to two years' detention for killing a father who collapsed with a heart attack after being pelted with stones and rocks." This week we have the news that a 44 year old man who "left a 96-year-old war veteran blind in one eye after attacking him on a packed tram has been given a three-year supervision order." Not even a day behind bars, just a supervision order, you know the punishment that really works!

Stephen Gordon, 44, launched his unprovoked attack on Shah Chaudury in Croydon, south London, in December" and "was found guilty of grievous bodily harm after the attack was caught on CCTV, Croydon Crown Court heard."
Three years supervision for an unprovoked attack on a 96 year old man. Mmm I feel much safer now I know he's still on the streets. Hats off to British justice I say.
