Judge issues light sentence for female embezzler becasue she had "childhood issues"Link here. Excerpt: 'Between September 2 and October 29 of 2010, Martin stole tens of thousands of dollars from the bank by purposely entering incorrect cheque details into the system. The 24-year-old then spent the money on a breast enlargement, $2600 worth of dental work, liposuction, jewellery from Tiffany's and nights out where she would spend money on drinks and drugs. Recorder Jeremy Wright jailed Martin for 52 weeks, taking into consideration she has been suffering "issues" since she was 11. "Your activity has been aggravated, to some extent, by the fact that suspicion would automatically be thrown on others, even if no other investigation took place," he said. "You are not [your son's] sole carer, you leave him in the care of your parents whenever you like. Considering the seriousness of the crime... it seems to me a mockery if I didn't send you to prison right away."'

Do men get such consideration for their "childhood issues"?
No, not at all. And notice the judge mentions the fact that she has a child and is a single mother, but that he is not considering that in this case because she leaves her boy with her parents whenever she likes. Do you suppose a single father would get the same commentary at his sentencing? The judge would not even consider it. The kid would just be taken into state custody and given over to a foster home if there were no relative he could be placed with, no consideration.
She'll be out in 6 months, maybe less time than that, and will be back at it.
????
how is it even legal that the judge even knows (unless its specific to the case) that this woman has children?? it should be inadmissible with immediate penalties(financial ones on the defendants lawyers) if its even mentioned in a bid to gain sympathy....
