Rejected petition review sentence of convicted child sex offender iain ross McCracken

More details

Convicted child sex offender iain ross McCracken was given a fine and light work supervision order after sexually assualting his own 13yo niece and also having a 2 year sexual relationship with another 13yo girl. As a relation of his and a mother of one of his victims I want a review into his sentencing as I genuinely believe his sentence was unduly lenient and he needs to be punished for his crimes and locked up where he can no longer hurt anymore children!

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

The Attorney General does not have any power to refer sentences passed in Scottish Courts for review.

In Scotland, the Lord Advocate is the head of the system of prosecution. You may wish to contact the Lord Advocate and his department (the Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service) by the below email address:

EnquiryPoint@copfs.gsi.gov.uk.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
