Letzgo hunting paedos

[Athos]

So as he was bang to rights for the murder he could hardly deny it & no doubt he took the good advice from his brief that an expression of remorse would reduce his tariff? It appears to have been a horrific premeditated racist murder by an adult where the victim would have suffered terribly during his ordeal. I would have thought a min 25yrs? Surely the murderer being convinced his victim was a paedo would not have caused the judge to be more lenient would it?

Did ou not read the sentencing remarks?

just watched the doc.

he was far more thoughtful, self-aware and morally complex than you'd have presumed from reading some of the posts about him on here.

that said - it is a cunt's trick to put them online. that will negatively affect dozens of innocent people. just fucking horrible thing to do. probably be less abusive if they beat them up.

that said, there's a moment of pure satisfaction in that gotcha moment. 49 year old masturbating vid to a 13 year old FFS. gotcha. that work is good. especially when he is polite, civil, non-angry with them when he catches them.

the programme highlighted what a good tactic that is too - if the old bill really set out a giant work force doing the same, i bet you the nonces would soon start fleeing the online world in their droves.

why oh why he plasters them all over the web i don't know.

thought it was a good documentary.

Yes I read the sentencing remarks, tariff of 18yrs because he admitted it & expressed remorse. It does not seem very long given the nature of the crime. he will be 42 when he gets out, lets hope he does not do it again.

My point was that I could not see how you could arrive at the parts highlighted in red (below), having read it.

If the sentencing guidelines only allow the judge to give a murderer an 18yr tariff if he admits it & expresses remorse then presumably that's why he only got 18yrs? To me it comes across as a racially motivated hate crime that was not treated like one. The tariff seems short given the severity of the crime is all I was pointing out.

Surplus cunts found guilty of misconduct.

Police who failed disabled murder victim found guilty

Police officers jailed over vigilante murder of disabled man

Judge Neil Ford QC, the Recorder of Bristol, jailed Duffy for 10 months and Passmore to four months.

Doesn't seem enough to me considering the position of responsibility they were in.

Little piece in the Guardian today - i expect a longer piece incoming given the writing. Is open enough to suggest/quote what other pieces haven't - that many/most people active are victims of abuse - also talks about what looks like wider developing activity beyond the most visible - i.e " support to individuals disclosing historical abuse for the first time"

I can understand the release and satisfaction in snaring paedo rapists. Would not do it though. Something a bit off with the vigilante YouTube brigade.

Its like the Facebook witch hunts, sone folk get a kick out of it. I have to be super careful when adminning a community group as if anyone is shamed and can be identified from a post, theres always someone who sees himself as a bit handy who is up for a ruck who will wade in and cause trouble. I delete it now, there has been some horrendous attacks on folks for spurious reasons. We teach personal safety and theres always some dickhead who pops up to suggest violence. There were sex attacks recently, a flasher and we had self styled vigilantes asking probing questions about where the victims lived. Of course I didn’t tell them where. I think these paedo hunters are no different, only more organised and high profile. I think its always more about their own glory than anything else.

There are groups out there that don't go down the YouTube route (though they are obviously v. visible).
