I see that these two burglars faced extremely tough sentancing in court.
That's the biggest joke.
I bet the guy who was ordered to pay £20 will never do that again!First Law of Contracting: Only the strong survive -

Anyone heard of Jerome Caminada? He was a Victorian Police detective, who worked in Manchester. I read his autobiography, and was amazed to learn that being soft on criminals is nothing new. One fecker was finally sent down for a few years after a lengthy lifetime of hundreds of crimes, and dozens and dozens of "One more time and we'll throw away the key." admonishments from the caring judges (who all stove to secure the bastard work, accommodation, etc.) - it's been going on forever.
Have a read if you can find a copy.Comment

I preferred version 1!Comment
