Closed petition Life sentences for paedophiles
Closed on
Paedophiles are not able to be rehabilitated, so should not be released. Also the current sentences are way too lenient for the pain and trauma caused to the victims. Financial crimes are currently deemed worse by our justice system than paedophilia and currently receive longer sentences.
