The Grandmother of Ellie Lawrenson, the 5yr old girl killed by a Pit Bull has been aquitted of manslaughter !!
So, I guess that it's ok to get off your head on booze & dope then let a dangerous dog into a room with a child ? Addressing the jury, the judge said: "This is an unusual case which had given rise to very strong emotions. "Suffice to say, the greatest sentence passed in this case is a life sentence of regret this lady has passed on herself." A lifetime of regret ? Sure - but a guilty verdict & a long custodial sentence would also have been appropriate in my opinion.

Yet another case showing how lenient or justice system can be!
What a huge pile of c**p! Stoned & Pi**ed in charge of a child and dangerous dog? Madness! |

This case highlights an off shot issue for me becuase I actually think there should be laws or quide lines at least about drinking or taking drugs when looking after kids.
The amount of times I have been to 'family' functions and ended up coming away because people are p*ssed and behaving like loats, and I don't want my kids to see it, and these people have their own kids with them! Ceratinly not justice IMHO |

Acquited by a jury of her peers. Say no more.

This woman was "in charge of a dangerous dog". A dog, that caused the death of her grandaughter. Had she been "in charge of a car" that caused the death of her grandaughter, would this woman have still been acquitted? I don't believe justice has been done, but then I'm not the one who has to live with it. IMO.

but you all seem o forget that the Govt has handed down a directive to the courts that only the most dangerous criminals should be locked up...cos the jails are too full.
Well you know what, build some new ones then and get the scum that deserve to be off the stret behind bars!! Yet some poor old codger like Ronnie Biggs (and many other like him) are kept in jail to serve the the country's establishments need to "punish" someone.
