Tougher prison sentences for violent crime announced


Recommended Posts

As well as tougher sentences new offences have also come into force today.

 

Some prisoners will have to serve two thirds of their sentence before become eligible for parole instead of half the sentence.

 

There are also mandatory life sentences for anyone committing a second serious violent or sexual crime.

 

Will it make a difference?

 

Thats all fine and dandy,BUT the judges never give the tough sentences out,thats the problem.
