Rich Bloke Kills Girlfriend ‘During Rough Sex’ - gets 3 years

[Magnus McGinty]

This has to be the best/worst example of how the courts treat wealthy people with kid gloves for serious crimes. Murdering her was a sex game gone wrong. Of course she’s no longer around to contest this.
Three years?

Millionaire admits killing girlfriend during 'rough sex'

 

[Pickman's model]

I'd have thought the best / worst example would have been yer man getting acquitted. Horrible story, sentence far too lenient, should be inside at least three times the sentence (being as he was done for manslaughter not murder)

 

[FridgeMagnet]

That’s the second case today where I’ve read the defendant trying to smear the victim by saying she was into rough sex or BDSM. The other was a guy claiming that he panicked when the woman tried to choke him as a BDSM thing, so was apparently forced to hit her in the head repeatedly until she died. Yeah.

Same case isn't it?

We only have his word that it wasn’t planned. The story mentions that he might have been annoyed by her sending topless pictures to another man. It’s complete victim blaming.

I miss the days when rich blokes killed themselves via auto-erotic asphyxiation.

 

[FridgeMagnet]

Nope, a different cunt. Banker claims he killed escort in self-defence

Note "escort" actually in the title, not just in court.

Oh I think the sentence is ludicrously light and, as you say, we only have his word for what happened. He left her for dead or to die alone and, on what he pleaded to, I think he should get a proper time to reflect on the consequences of his actions, nine or more years before a chance of parole. Awful, awful crime

Shit...that is horrendous.

Sorry you are right.vile fuckers both of them.

This bloke who 'accidentally' stabbed a woman he had a one night stand with in the neck got six years. Man accidentally kills woman by stabbing her through neck during sadomasochistic sex

It's a mystery why a millionaire property developer got a shorter sentence despite his girlfriend's appalling 40 separate injuries including internal injuries caused by a bottle of carpet cleaner being rammed up her. Women love that sort of thing

Complete mystery, can't imagine why. There was also the millionaire who was cleared of rape after claiming he accidentally fell on the woman with his penis.

 

[planetgeli]

3 years 8 months and the cunt even got bail AFTER being found guilty last week.

'You should be prepared for a custodial sentence of some length'. Judge actually said that last week. FFS.

"You can expect a very substantial sentence". Judge actually said that last week. FFS.

Do prosecutions ever get expert testimony in from bdsm teachers/practitioners in these kinds of trials? Because I kind of think they ought to. The average vanilla juror's reaction to this sort of stuff may well lead to prejudicial thinking about victim (or indeed defendant) and they surely need a real live kinkster to say "nope, this (lethal) thing is very definitely Not A Thing on our scene"? Three years is a travesty EVEN IF you accept that it was manslaughter - which I'm not convinced about.

 

[Magnus McGinty]

I’ll admit that I’m not educated on the intricacies of BDSM. I assumed it was play though rather than serious assault that can mitigate a murder charge.

 

[Voley]

Am I right in saying he put her fucking eye out before he killed her?

If one person is incapable of saying that they're injured because they're so drugged/ drunk that they cannot communicate ... surely the other person should be responsible for their safety?

Jesus

 

[trabuquera]

Exactly - what I mean is that "it was BDSM" is not an adequate defence in this case or many like it - it's got nothing whatsoever in common with consensual activities - and those who don't know anything about it, need informing of that, before issuing verdicts based on their ignorance.

 

[FridgeMagnet]

Is there not safe words in BDSM?
I mean consensual goes pretty far but if one person is incapable of saying that they're injured because they're so drugged/ drunk that they cannot communicate ... surely the other person should be in charge of safety?

Mind boggles

It's bullshit basically - it's smears on the victim. But those have an effect on sentencing. Note how the two cases I quoted also make heavy reference to the woman being a call girl or coming back to the guy's flat from a club.

 

[planetgeli]

I think you maybe need to focus a little more on the multi-millionaire bit than the BDSM.

 

[Reno]

Of course BDSM is supposed to be just play and there always have to be safe words. I’m not surprised though that in our sex negative society the victim is not getting justice for engaging in kinky sex (and of course for being a woman)

Cunt.

He’d better go down for that.

If she was too drunk to consent to being seriously assaulted, she was too drunk to consent to any kind of sex. So it’s rape and murder/manslaughter.

Sluts who deserved it/were asking for it obviously.

While being strangled as she sat on him he bashed the back of her skull in with multiple blows from a pestle in self-defence, having luckily remembered this after initially having claimed he woke up to find her dead but had no idea what had happened.

Seems legit


Seriously depressing thread Shows how little things have changed and how deeply these attitudes from the judiciary and press are embedded.

Whatever sexual stuff you're into, it's still not OK to kill people.

 

[wiskey]

I didn't really understand how it got tried as sex games gone wrong when I read he stepped over her lying at the bottom of the stairs and left the house ..

 

[TruXta]

Hopefully this inhuman cunt gets a taste of his own medicine.
