BREAKING NEWS: An Australian judge just let a foreign violent rapist escape prison because he found that the rapist didn’t know that rape was a crime in Australia.
Within six months of moving to Australia, a foreign 16 year old teenager committed a brutal violent rape attack.
Australian judge Andrew Muller refused to imprison the 16 year old teenage rapist because he found that the rapist didn’t know that rape was against Australian customs - he had “limited insight into societal norms in Australia.”
In determining the sentence, Justice Muller somehow found that the fact that the rapist didn’t understand that rape was against Australian culture reduced his moral culpability for the rape.
I don’t understand. This is sickening.
In a victim impact statement, the victim described feeling a loss of dignity, confidence and sense of self.
She said she "can no longer call [her] body [her] own" and that night her life was stolen and would forever be changed.
