2.In oz,the accused will be set free even he committed a very
serious crimes.
Cool down mates.This is not a isolated case.
The judge is very experienced.
First,it is damn wrong for PP(Director of Public Prosecutions )of
QUEENSLAND OF AUSTRALIA asked for light sentence.
But Mr Shine(Queensland AG) admitted the appeal would be
hampered by the fact the prosecutor in the case, Steve Carter, did
not recommend jail.
2nd,The learned judge thought that the girl "probably agreed"to sex
and just followed the request to give light sentences.
But the girl
has been diagnosed as "mildly intellectually
impaired"
3rd,no body raised the alarm during the one month appeal
period.
where are all the damn medias? u guys have told me and
educated me that
AUSTRALIA IS A FREE AND DEMOCRATIC country.
Why nobody raise this issue during the appeal period?
Why PP or AG review all judges sentences and lodge appeal in the
appeal period ?
Many things wrong in many places.
3.
Mr Shine(QUEENSLAND Attorney-General Kerry
Shine) has also ordered a review into sentences in all
sexual assault cases in far north Queensland over the past two
years, to ensure they were meeting community expectations.
this is rare to review all cases...
4.The girl was sexually abused in aged 7 and now in aged 10
again.
Her "mildly intellectually impaired" may help her to go
through
all these hells...
The fact that Senior Welfare Officer being sacked and 2 suspended
on FULL PAY
shows failures in OZ system
5.The mind set of The judge
She thinks there should be ''an alternative penalty is
appropriate.''
This mean she will consider the cultures of Indigenous!!
No wonder she gave this kind of sentences.
Even Oz PM also jumped up....
She did not make a mistake.
The judge thinks she has to consider the cultures of
Indigenous
before she gives sentences.
Conclusion
37. Sentencing Indigenous offenders is never easy. There are times
when the offending behaviour clearly warrants the imposition of
severe and significant penalties. There are also times when a judge
who has knowledge of a community, has information about the
community view of the offending, the background to it and the full
particulars of those involved may decide that an alternative
penalty is appropriate. Determining which category of case is
before you can be problematic and can often only be done with input
from the Indigenous community itself.

6.am i anti--Australia by sharing the news
here?
..
Why did Queenslands Child Safety Depart-ment not report the
sexual assault to police despite the girl contracting a sexually
transmitted disease from the encounter? Why was it considered
better that the girl be removed from foster care with a white
family in Cairns and returned to Aurukun where she had been
sexually assaulted from the age of six?
The picture emerging from the gang rape is of a bureaucratic
culture that accepts a lesser standard of rights and
responsibilities for indigenous people on Cape York. The
Australianhas little doubt that many people who have worked at
Queenslands Attorney-General or Health Departments think it is
fairly common for indigenous girls of that age on remote
communities to have that sort of sexual history. But whenever the
system turns a blind eye, it sends a message that this behaviour is
normal and condemns future gen-erations of girls to a similar
fate.
