Our courts are a joke and it has reached a point where there is no option but for relatives to take matters into their own hands if crimes go unpunished. My life would be over if that sort of thing happened to one of mine and i knew i could get to him. Quote Selected

Just the thought of that happening to any child, let alone one of my children, makes my boil and feel utter uncontrollable rage. Utter filthy sub human garbage.

Re: When did we go soft on paedophiles?? Reply #4 – February 21, 2023, 07:52:40 pm Jumping the gun a bit.Joffa hasn’t been sentenced yet but the beak did indicate that a suspended sentence was on the cards.I suspect that pressure might be brought to bear, particularly after the victim’s harrowing story.On a related note, an old Koori friend of mine, known as Crazy Cat, was a regular guest of Her Majesty in his younger days. He told me that, on one occasion, he was summoned to the governor’s office and told that a certain prisoner would be in the exercise yard at a particular time, no prison officers would be around and the gate would be unlocked. Of course Crazy Cat knew that the prisoner was a rock spider and arranged a beating. I suspect that Joffa would get similar treatment if he did get a custodial sentence. Quote Selected

He lost the players/parents and was given the flick before the season finished. Quote Selected Last Edit: February 27, 2023, 02:34:32 pm by Mav

Are you serious. Would you think the same if he abused one of your young family member to be given a ‘few months’ as punishment? Surely not. The poor child nearly certainly will have a life time of issues because of this rock spider. Sorry mate but a couple of months doesn’t cut it. They locked up the melb supporter for 6 months for flying into Perth to watch a footy game a few years ago and then decide to let off piece of sh1te abusing an innocent child. The world is seriously warped. Quote Selected 1 Likes
