Petition Action

Review sentence for paedophile with 255,000 indecent images

Additional Information

Dennis Igo possessed 255,000 indecent images of children and animals and was only given a 2 year suspended sentence with 300 hours of community service. This is absolutely disgusting. What message does this send to people committing the same sort of vile offences and ruining childrens lives forever? He has blamed his wife's cancer for committing this vile crime. Hundreds of people are diagnosed with cancer every day but there is no excuse what so ever for this disturbing and life destroying behaviour. On behalf of all the innocent children in these images we must stand up and voice our disgust on their behalf. There is also no reference to him being put on the Sex Offenders register.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Sentences that appear to be unduly lenient cannot be referred through the E-Petitions website. If you believe a sentence given in a Crown Court appears to be very low, or unduly lenient, anyone can contact the Attorney General's office asking for the sentence to be reviewed as long as it is within 28 days of sentencing.

It also only takes one person to make such a request. In the case of Dennis Igo he was sentenced for an offence that does not fall within the unduly lenient scheme and it is therefore not possible for the Law Officers to refer the case to the Court of Appeal.
