Increase the sentace of Connor Stewart, for murdering a 47 year old man.
Stewart, 16, was sentanced to only 3 years after being filmed punching a 47 year old man who was left in a critical condition for over 3 weeks before his death.
The boy received only 3 years in jail despite “showing off” to his friends, and murdering the man.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
This isn't something that the UK Government or Parliament could do. Sentences are the responsibility of the courts, which are independent of the Government and Parliament.
Anyone can ask the Attorney General to review a sentence they think is too low, and only one person needs to ask for a sentence to be reviewed. You can find out how to do that here:
