This sentencing seems a bit... light.

I try not to give HuffPoo clicks, but I'm genuinely pleased that the consensus on the comments is outrage.

This was a really light sentence, but she will also be on the sex offenders list for 10 years on top of her prison/probation (1 year each) sentence.

This case is nothing to do with gender - it is everything to do with the British Government telling British Judges to avoid locking people up as much as possible because of a lack of prison space and the cost of keeping prisoners.

The Government feels it is much more effective to have people do community service and pay fines when the crime is "non-violent" and it is a first offence.
