That was the point I made earlier, before the holier than though brigade jumped in. I admitted that this chap deserved his sentence but it isn't as serious as hundreds of other cases that go unreported in the national media.
I wonder what would have happened if this had been in France. I have no idea what their laws are regarding teachers but their age of consent is 15 so I guess a French teacher would have got a lighter sentence.
I don't need sympathy from anyone. I just played devil's advocate as there were too many people of the" hang'em all! persuasion. Still it took up a few hours. And what a surprise that it drew Simster out with his usual no content all insult post.
I'm just asking questions. I've already stated that the man deserved his prison sentence. I'm just amazed that so many people think that laws are always right.
The sex offenders register should have different levels. Is this teacher as bad as a peado that scours playgrounds? This man should go to jail but I'm not sure how being cited as a pervert will do any good to anyone.
