The Curtis things (they are not human) which I wrote about on the 21 November last year (to read that click here ) got 17 years which is what the Prosecutor asked for. Why the hell she/he didn't ask for 50 years and let the Judge then work it downwards, I don't know. We all know if they had asked for 50 years, even if the Judge gave say 40 years, it would all go to Appeal and the Court would feel sorry for them as usual.
I am not a believer in the death penalty but maybe some of these scum should be offered a razor blade in jail and save us a lot of money by slashing their wrists. In this vein (pun) we have just heard that the samurai sword murderer, Dixon, has killed himself (although the method of death is still to be confirmed). No loss.
Meantime we have Victoria Stevens, mother of murder accused Hulio Ataria, shown here resisting arrest for contempt of court. As Ataria was led away, Stevens yelled, "Love you" and barked like a dog, a sign of Mongrel Mob support. When Judge Richard Watson ordered her arrest she yelled obscenities.
It seems she is unable to work but can hold off four police officers and kick down a door.
Will the Government Department who are paying her now immediately investigate why she is classed as an 'invalid'. Of course not.
Not that she is employable anyway but why isn't she at least sweeping the streets. And if she won't she doesn't get paid.
On to happier matters - Rugby - I see that Denver and Tokyo are competing to get the All Blacks to play in their city. It seems unbelievable, but true, that they would make more money in Denver than in NZ or Australia. Our problem is simply population - we are too small.
It then took four police officers to arrest her and she fought them and she even kicked open the doors as she was taken from the court.
