Rejected petition Tougher sentences for pedophiles online and physical

Tougher sentences for pedophiles Sharing and/or making indecent images of children and those physically sexually abusing children. This should include 25 years to a life sentence for the most serious crimes against children. And minimum of 10 years for exploiting children via images.

More details

I feel that pedophiles don’t get the appropriate sentences for their crimes and many of them upon release reoffend.

Children need to be protected from these monsters.
