Petition Action

Tougher sentencing for pedophiles and child rapists

Petition Details

We want tougher sentencing for pedophiles/child rapist/child abusers, having indecent images of children, anything to do with harming innocent children.

Additional Information

As a nation we want tougher sentencing for all of the above. Some are getting 27 months for having indecent images of children, that’s not justice, nothing will ever be justice for these sick individuals. They deserve to be in prison for life. No child should ever suffer abuse and feel like there predator is roaming free. The sentencing needs looking at and changing. These people destroy children’s lives.
