        @BBCBreaking Really feel for Vicky. Neither of them should have got a prison sentence, suspended maybe but not this. The law is an ass!

        @BBCBreaking So ridiculous. People receive lighter sentences for far worse offences. There's no consistency in the justice system.

        @BBCBreaking Judge should have given choice: 8 months separate, or a week sharing a cell.
