The Magistrate's Blog (2005-2012)

This blog has migrated to www.magistratesblog.blogspot.co.uk This blog is anonymous, and Bystander's views are his and his alone. Where his views differ from the letter of the law, he will enforce the letter of the law because that is what he has sworn to do. If you think that you can identify a particular case from one of the posts you are wrong. Enough facts are changed to preserve the truth of the tale but to disguise its exact source.

A Personal View

If I were Justice Secretary and I were asked whether or not to confirm a decision of the independent Parole Board to recommend the release of a prisoner of almost eighty, who is fed through a naso-gastric tube and who has a broken hip and requires constant nursing care, I am pretty sure I would go ahead and confirm it.

But then I am not a politician, and I couldn't give a toss what the tabloids think.

Here's the threat to society - looks dangerous doesn't he?
