It seems that our judiciary think it a good idea to jail a 77 year old man, of previous good character and with a dependent wife, for taking blame for his sons speeding offence, whilst at the same time releasing more serious criminals early to solve the overcrowding situation in our jails!
Jeez...give me strength!
I do appreciate that the offence of which Robert Logue was found guilty was perverting the course of justice , a very serious charge carrying a maximum sentence of life, and that speeding can and does kill but really, given the specifics of the case (as far as I know them) and the climate of more serious crime in which we live today it seems more than a little ridiculous that this situation should arise at all.... in fact to me it seems utterly crazy and confounding.
Please, if you can defend this decision and offer a point of view I have missed let me know before I lose all faith and truly begin to believe that the world (or at least this part of it) has gone completely mad!
