Closed petition Increase all harassment sentence limits (sexual and non)
Closed on
Take harassment charges more seriously and for prison sentences to be made longer so sexual harassment charges. This will most definitely help the current climate and stop people committing these offenses.
Women should be made to feel safe whilst out and we should not have to protect ourselves against predators. Increasing the punishment for these acts will most likely deter people from committing such acts.
