It's crazy what you sometimes see over here in Australia.. some jail terms can be absolutely shocking in their leniency.. so this guy in the link I posted below gets 4-8 years for bashing someone to death with a bottle of wine and then stealing their wallet.. and the judge blames it on alcohol consumption.. I'm against capital punishment but getting 4-8 years for killing someone brutally and robbing them is pathetic.. it just invites more crime. This guy will go in age 16 and leave age 20-24 and continue his life like nothing happened whereas that poor son of a bitch is dead and his wife and kids will suffer tremendously..
