Rejected petition We need serious charges and harsher sentences for rapists and sexual predators!

We need rapists, sexual predators and sex offenders cases to be taken more seriously by the police forces and charge them, we also need court judges and juries to decide on harsher, more serious sentences than less offensive offenders such as drug dealers, people ask for drugs not to be raped!

More details

There may be similar petitions but I also want to fight this battle, our streets need to be a safer place again and the local authorities need to listen, I believe victims of these crimes are suffering tremendously and some cases are not being taken as serious as drug cases for example! We need your help to save the lives of our loved ones, protect the innocent and punish the perpetrators!!
As evidence is shown the current numbers ( 2019/2020) of sexual offences is 154.11000.
