It details the failed appeal by a female Australian magistrate (!) against her sentence for intimidating a male colleague. Get this pap from a female-inmate support-group mouthpiece: "She's experiencing the cruel and unusual punishment that every woman goes through in prison." Oh please - "cruel and unusual punishment" is intrinsically part and parcel of the female prison experience?"

Criminal trials (Score:0) by Anonymous User on Monday June 30, @12:09AM EST (#1) Yes, it seems a jail term is cruel only when a woman does it. Sometime ago, the chairperson of India's National Commission for Women demanded speedy trials for women as `going through a criminal trial is an ordeal for every woman'. So if a trial involving a male accused drags on for years, that's okay!
