As horrific as that is, you can’t compare the two. But to add, that person in your link should also have had a lot longer bird, but that’ll be the fault of the sentencing guidelines.

Again I agree but my initial point was the discrepancy in sentences is bizarre.
If he’d killed just one person half a mile away before he turned into the street of revellers whilst over the limit he’d probably have had less.
 
Oh and on a side note why does a judge in the same sentence (in many cases) say “I’m jailing you for 21 years but you can come out after 14.”
 
Someone drink driving is not doing that though.

It may result in the same outcome but as I said before, the intent is not the same. And intent matters under the law.

I’m not disagreeing with you but how can the sentences be so far apart when a car is involved.
I’m pretty sure you’d have given the woman who killed a baby more than 4 years.

Yes I would.

But a lot of sentencing is all over the shop. The fact that having indecent images of children is not an automatic 10 year sentence plus chemical castration is beyond me.

But the crimes here are totally different. Drunk driving doesn’t involve intent to harm. He deliberately harmed as many as he could until he was forcibly stopped.

Thank you,I quite like you.
