Why bother with Courts ?

[Geez Louise]

No. What I am saying is, in every court case, the persons past is relevant and should be highlighted. Are you saying that it shouldn't be the case for everyone who appears before the courts? Everyone, attacker and victim just walk in and their past is not relevant? Of course it is!!

I also think that, the armed forces do not get the respect they deserve. Did he choose that career path, obviously yes. Did he ask to be sent to a war zone....probably not!

At the end of the day, you are correct, it is the news sensationalising it because of the victims service to the country but in this instance, I don't have an issue with it. Should they publish what good other victims do when they print a story? If you read victims stories, you will find that they do.

End of the day, the guy that did this was a thug and deserves to be punished!

My thoughts on it.
