Pete Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 **UPDATE** Police phoned the other morning. Apparently the juveniles that confessed to this, while being interviewed about "other matters", have been to court and fined £0 and given 40 hours community service. Apparently I was awarded £0 compensation for the nearly £600 damage to my car. That'll teach 'em, eh? WTF? I'd really want an explanation off the judge for that. Ask him why you're expected to shell out 600 for the actions of others. I'd really love to hear the answer to that. People should be held responsible for their actions and made to pay - I don't give a crap if they don't have the money, there should be a mandatory loan scheme where they have the money taken out of their dole checks automatically or something!

Jake Posted April 25, 2006 Author Share Posted April 25, 2006 Ask him why you're expected to shell out 600 for the actions of others Thanks to JezzyBabes I was able to fix the car for a lot less than £600 but that's besides the point.

Jake Posted April 25, 2006 Author Share Posted April 25, 2006 Is it really the police' fault? Or is it more the courts? The non-investigation of the crime in the first place is the Police's fault. The pathetic lightness of their sentance is the court's fault. The not allowing me to know their addresses if the laws fault. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soonto_HAS_soop Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 But surely the 40 hours of community service they have been given will make your life much better Jake? COUGH "Bullshit" COUGH Basically they can smash a window and steal something worth around £200 to them, and then get 40 hours community service (40 hours multiplied by minimum wage = approx £140) and they make a profit out of it!?!? WTF? Why can't the victim supply the jobs to accomodate the 40 hours of community service? That might make them think twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Walker Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 A friend of mine who gave someone who threatened him a slap first (well, more like a punch ) got 200 hours CS. Unbelievable. Gaz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnK Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Civil prosecution? I think they have to tell your solicitor their identities then. If you have a friendly solicitor then you'd soon know who they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
