    So why risk it?the best way to discourage this guy from stealing in the future, is to cut a finger for each theft that way he will not glow in his act,he will know the law is serious and others will take heed.

    He should have been sentence to twenty years, what he recieved was equal to a slap on the wrist. with his extensive criminal record he should have been punish in a puplic forume, like the old market,on a saturday, or may be a sunday after church, with an entrance fee, to boost the economy , and a deterant to crime.

    I honestly do not get the logic:
    10thefts = 7years .
    From my very very small knowledge of addition, I remember equal means same value…. therefore i believe a more correct sum would have read 10thefts = 10years. Like I said before my numeracy skills ain’t that good. :lol:

    Well dat is sumting. And murder cases now…..

    That boy is a serial voleh. Good thing they send him prison; his hands need a rest.

    For the next seven years he will be able to peek across to see his neighborhood but cannot venture there. That is a little bit of punishment in itself. So close but so far away… :wink:
