| 1110588 | 2010-06-16 20:31:00 | Jail is where she should go because the punishment listed for the offence is jail. What right has a judge got to sentence a serial drink driver and violent offender to something less. Its a real slap in the face for the victim. Its all about the victim she is ruined for life. The Sensible Sentencing Trust need to make more noise about this offender and the government needs to fire this judge rfn. |

| 1110589 | 2010-06-16 23:39:00 | FOURTH DRIVING OFFENCE. DRIVING OFFENCE DOES NOT EQUAL DRINK DRIVING OFFENCE. And Melta, in this case it was obviously the drivers fault, but you made it out to sound like every accident, sorry, incident is the cause of the driver which it is not. |

Of course it is, If they were driving a well maintained vehicle in a manner that suited the conditions and to their abilities the incident would not have happened. If you can show me a single incident that could not have been avoided I would love to hear about it. Acts of god notwithstanding. |

| 1110591 | 2010-06-17 00:45:00 | So im guessing you never saw that program I mentioned...car faults do occur out of the drivers control. Hell even a tyre blowout can cause an accident. And lets not forget Toyotas little problems recently - the drivers fault? I don't think so. | --Wolf-- (128) | ||

| 1110593 | 2010-06-17 01:52:00 | If you want to drive pissed move to BOP. This judge wont even imprison this driver for her seventh drink drive conviction. I wonder if its the same judge that didnt imprison chick for smashing up innocent person. www.bayofplentytimes.co.nz I wonder how many before he thinks its an option maybe 10 or more I dont know. This judge needs to be fired and get his mental health issues sorted out. |

| 1110594 | 2010-06-17 02:36:00 | I think they like the sympathy from people who are sucked in to the bleeding heart story. If you feel so sorry for her Prefect - write out a large cheque for her to make her feel better. Dont have enough much money, pretty broke these days but my companies charity is now: //www.freegaza.org/ perhaps you could give them some of your money |

| 1110595 | 2010-06-17 05:26:00 | "It was her fourth driving offence." RTFA! I have 4 driving offences - speeding offences... Were any of her's for drunk driving? I don't know. Wolf, dude... Sure accidents happen, it's an accident if it was an accident, driving drunk isn't an accident. It's like saying, I accidentally got drunk, accidentally decided to go to Maccas, accidentally cripples someone... Sh|t happens, it's just an accident. That's not how it works, she should have gotten a much harsher sentence and disqualified for driving for life, simple as that. At the very least, send her off to the jail house for those 9 months. Mr Wild also suffered a foot injury in the accident. He was forced out of work for two weeks and had to move out of his flat to live with his parents due to lost income. Because his car was not insured, he had to walk two hours to work. I think Mr Wild is an asshat. If you don't work for two weeks you have to move back to your parents' place? Really? I can't see it happening. That's victim whining for no reason. Oh and after his foot injury he could walk for two hours to work? I guess he is totally friendless and can't get a ride from anyone, nor can he use the bus... Yeah... Life is hard on all of us. Furthermore, it is my opinion that some people must be shot. |

| 1110597 | 2010-06-17 09:40:00 | I've noted a few things about the sensible sentencing types who promote filling the jails of late. 1. The are often unemployed or sickness beneficiaries, or have a low income. 2. If they work, they've normally got a grievance with ACC, Inland Revenue or some other agency that they think has treated them badly in some way. 3. They often had a few scrapes with the law themselves when growing up and have some kind of thing against the Police. 4. They were sorted out by some kind of biff around the ear type experience, which of course never did them any harm. 5. They generally view the world as victims of various injustices. Having had my family be a victim of crime several times in the last few years, I can vouch that the initial reaction is anger. But turning yourself into a victim is about the worst way to get on with your life. What happens to the perpetrator doesn't change how well you recover from a crime, in fact dwelling on any injustice in life probably hinders you moving on and empowering yourself. Indeed meeting the offender and expressing your feelings about the offence is often the most therapeutic thing you can do, and studies have shown that people who do this generally are less punitive in what they want the outcome to be than the Judges. A prison sentence for the offender can never put things right if you got injured, but your best bet is still not to let whatever the sentence the offender gets dictate how you rehabilitate yourself. Successful people it seems bounce back from whatever life throws at them including being victims of crime. We all suffer from injustices in one form or another, some people don't let them go and suffer and some people get on with life and thrive. |
