Rejected petition I want stricter laws for paedofiles an sex offenders in northern ireland
Stricter laws an sentances for sex offenders an paedofiles in northern ireland. I want these people to be named an shamed an brought to justice an to be taken through the court of law an proscuted with longer sentances an stricter conditions. Sex offenders should no longer be protected by the law
More details
Everyday theres more an more child sex offences being reported by children an adults. According to todays Itv news report theres 6 children a day being abused an molested in their own homes in northern ireland, they are left suffering for the rest of their lives with no voice an with mental health issues an no justice. The laws around this seems to protect the abusers an not the victims. They dont get their day in court they dont get their justice they dont get closure.
