  1. Wowsers, a fitting sentence?

    > The judge handed down a five-and-a-half-year sentence. She declined to suspend any portion of this, given that Rana was on bail for a serious offence when he carried out the attack.

    > At the time of the offence, he was on bail for a serious drug offence.

    I think people should be in prison until they are fully rehabilitated to rejoin a functioning member of society.

    For fuck sake. She was only 18, just a kid really. He should of got a decent sentence — at least 15 years and then deport him afterwards.

  4. Should be at least a 10 year sentence followed by deportation.

    We open up our country in good faith and some people just take the piss. They shouldn’t be allowed to stay.

  5. We need to have a serious discussion about the men from foreign countries where there is little to no law coming to Ireland and abusing women.

  6. 5.5 years seems reasonable considering most sexual assault sentences are much lower. I can’t see details due to the paywall though so I might be missing some information here. From the outset it doesn’t seem like a lenient sentence.

  7. We need increased tariffs for such offences

    We need more prison spaces

    Both would seem to be linked

  8. They’re commending him for his early guilty plea yet when first questioned he denied it. Shouldn’t that be taken into account as well? Slimy cunt even moved house.
