Nice Native American Red Hand Shirt
To add to this, a part of the logic in those types of situation when using
character as part of the judgement is (or should be) that the crime is likely to
have been a one off and there is little chance of the defendant repeating their
crime. However a crime such as this demonstrates a repeated pattern of
behaviour, over a prolonged period. It is also not a crime of passion Nice Native American Red Hand Shirt but
required planning and intent over that period. It's basically the exact opposite
situation. The judgement in this case is like if someone was caught after
robbing hundreds of people over a period of years but prior to that had never
committed a crime "The defendant is of good character aside from this one huge
spree of crime, best to go easy on him". An absurd position to take.Judges around here must take note of any mitigating circumstances and explain why or why not or how they were considered. It can be a good element in criminal sentencing, but without oversight it does open the door for abuse. Rulings can be overturned if the sentence or verdict was insufficiently or improperly justified. Same goes for evidence and witnesses. Judges need to explain why or why not they believed them.
