Call for a longer sentence for a male child murderer matthew scully hicks
Matthew Scully Hicks was jailed today for a minimum of 18 years, for the appalling murder of 18 month old Elsie. Please sign this petition to have the prison sentence increased to life.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
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:
