This makes my blood boil

Nah Marbles,our judicial system is beyond a joke really,for instance,if someone breaks into our home and we beat the living s*** out of them or kill them,we can be charged with Assault or Murder,just like any other country .
But our biggest gripe is when they go to court,the judges have proven on many occasions that they don't have a grip on reality when it comes to sentencing,some will commit horrific murders (like this one) and some brain dead judge will sentence them to 10yrs with a non parole period of 5,although I do believe man slaughter only comes into it if the death wasn't intentional,BUT,convince me a 4 yr old in this case had a chance against a 23yr old?.

Very sad, I tend to agree that the mother let the child down in the worst possible way. I can only tell myself that she was herself living in fear for her own life because its the only way that is palatable to me. I kind of hope he is put into a fairly moderate security jail, the kind where the other inmates can read the news and know what that man did.

Oh, that's horrible. . .

"The child had suffered significant head injuries and he died later in hospital."

Ah! Here's the bit I missed.

At first I thought the kid had Scarlett Fever and the 'manslaughter' bit was for not getting the child to hospital in time.
