        Insufficient sentencing as usual, 8-10yrs would have been better

        Outrageously lenient sentencing. In a violent society like UK, tariffs need increasing.

        5 years - big deal - I bet the family are distraught at the light sentences - I would be.

        Why just 'violent disorder' & not grevious bodily harm/ attempted murder? Sentences simply not long enough.
