    Also I might add: compelling indecent act with animal 🤣
    I don't want to even know how they define if the act is compelling or not.

    • adjective> evoking interest, attention, or admiration in a powerfully irresistible way.

    Those judges are sick fucks.

    Lock them up, they only get out when the fella dies of natural causes. Fair to everyone.

    Perhaps when the youngest of his children dies, and I’d consider that a reasonable deal.

    I seriously can’t fathom this one, they attacked him because they thought he was a nark, and the authorities rewarded them with no time in jail.

    An Aussie case, and not a case I was aware of until recently, but Kathleen Folbigg ...

    Pardoned today for convictions for the death of her 4 kids over 10 years.

    Kathleen Folbigg - Wikipedia

    To quote Ian Fleming: "Once is happenstance. Twice is coincidence. Three times is enemy action."

    What about 4?

    Am cynical, but "reasonable doubt" ... ?

    Absolute tragedy for all concerned - inc. the jurors. Nothing is perfect, sadly. You can only try to find the truth as best you can, minimise miscarriages and learn from them.

    The UK set up a Criminal Cases Review Commission, run by lay-people outside the Justice system, to investigate cases like this and refer them to the Appeal Court which has worked well. Does NZ or Oz have something similar?
