Testicle-ripper gets only 2.5 years in jail

	Rob writes "We often hear about sentencing disparities. Here is a woman who ripped off an ex lover's testicle after she offered him sex and he refused her. Her female lawyer mitigates this act by saying "She did not use a weapon, only her rather small hands." She was jailed for 2.5 years. A man who "offered" sex to an unwilling female and then sliced off her breast in rage at her refusal would be considered the worst kind of sex maniac. He would certainly be looking at 10 years in jail here in the UK."

She'll be out in three months (Score:1) by mcc99 on 12:37 PM February 24th, 2005 EST (#1) I can't see her staying more than three, maybe 6 months in jail. Heck, they may let her out even before that. If she were male and the victim female, as the story submitter points out... well, you know the rest.

Ahhh (Score:0) by Anonymous User on 02:24 PM February 24th, 2005 EST (#2) Ah, she only used her "small hands" to violently rip off his testicle rather than a weapon. Jeez - why are we bothering complaining?

jeez... (Score:0) by Anonymous User on 12:24 AM February 25th, 2005 EST (#3) She said: 'It was never my intention to cause harm to Geoff and the fact that I have caused him injury will live with me forever.' . . . 'She still holds Mr Jones in very high regard and the loss of this relationship feels like a bereavement for her.' Awe, the poor thing.... Unbelievable that she tried swallowing it to "destroy the evidence".
