Victim left blinded in one eye. No jail sentence.
The attacker, who is absolute scum is a clear and blatant danger to civilised society. A supervision order does not adequately protect the general public (including elderly war veterans) from a clearly dangerous man. The only acceptable option for this kind of violent crime is jail.

:yes: He sent the man blind and to a home
Like most judges I expect; public school followed by Oxbridge, a a pupilage at Daddy's law firm along the way perhaps?
The higher echelons of the legal system in this country are a virtual closed shop and perhaps if we had one or two judges that had some experience of living in the real world we wouldn't see this kind of madness so often. If someone can get a jail sentence for pirating DVDs how can somebody blind Shah Chaudhry in one eye and put him into a home and not serve a single day behind bars?
That was my initial reaction. Although I would stress that pirating "hurts" corporations rather than hurting them.
But walked right to land.
Hehehe
The sentence itself is a pile of bollocks, but the judge obviously had his reasons and I'd be interested to hear what they were before I go off on one. Particularly as the attacker is black, and if your stereotyping was anything to go by he should have expected a stronger sentence because of it.
I've said it time and time again, but for most crimes a jury would give a weaker sentence because they are more taken in by the pleas of a "bad childhood" and all that.
The thing that angers me most is that if this man hadn't paid his TV Tax to the Mafia, sorry, BBC (Broadcasting Biased Crap, to nick someone's excellent description) he'd have been sent to prison for much much longer.
Fuck off. I couldn't give a toss what colour the attacker was. You might be homophobic but I'm certainly not racist.
It's irrelevant what race the attacker was, he blinded an old man, she should be treated accordingly.
I didn't say you did, read again...
You would expect an old-boys-brigade rahrah judge to sentence a black man more strongly than a white man.
...where?

Whilst that attacker gets off any kind of jail sentence and only supervised for 3 years
One sentence to me seems way harsh and the other way lenient.
However - that leaves out two key points;
1 - This sends out a terrible message
2 - Why cant he get mental health treatment inside?
Not been sent to a mental hospital or anything like that?
Nice to see that it's more important the BBC get their precious money rather than the public being protected.:rolleyes:
What a bunch of pathetic shit.
