Rejected petition Tougher sentencing for sex offending peadophile's and rapists.

More details

Anybody arrested under the suspicion of downloading/distributing indecent images of children , child abuse or rape on a child or adult to be remanded in custody pending the verdict of the jury. No bail to be given to any suspected paedophile/sex offender/rapist/child abuser. We also call for a minimum 10 year sentence to anybody found guilty of the above crimes. The current sentencing for these crimes is too little and these predators should be deemed to dangerous for bail.
