Truly; in SA the justice does not fit the crime. I have recently be made aware of an acquaintance who has been given over a year in prison for Drunk driving. There was no accident and no one was hurt. Yes the person was wrong by driving under the influence. Their license has been revoked and now they must serve over a year in maximum security prison ( A prison for violent offenders). How can we as a Justice system, say that this is correct when someone who is convicted of Culpable Homicide gets only 5 years and let me add in the medical wing of a prison with the aid of permanent medical Staff.
Justice - What Justice.Lets stop nailing the small people and actually convict the violent criminals.
Disappointed in our Justice system
