Petition Action

Sexual offence crimes should have larger prison sentences

Additional Information

For too long have pedophiles been allowed to rape innocent children and get away with it with such a short prison sentence. From a friend I understand that after being sexually abused for several years through school, the culprit was sentenced to just 3 years, of which he will probably only serve half of that time. The time has come to realize the floors in the prosecution for this offence - justice is not being upheld.
