I fail to see the difference in severity of attempted rape and rape.

Only difference is that he's clearly rubbish at it.

I agree, if she is after compensation, then they have to disregard his future earnings as they are immaterial to the case.
It is hugely unfair on her, but, and I don't mean this to sound too callous, that's life.

And that he hasn't committed the crime of rape.

And who says rape itself should be punishable by death anyway?

We need to know if she was wearing a miniskirt at the time of the assault.

or if she led him on in any way, the slag.

How did he claim the win from prison btw? Can you phone it in? Wouldn't you have to show the winning ticket.

Then I read how he was imprisoned for a string of rapes before that made me think he shouldn't really have the money.

i fail to see how the two correlate tbh.

I went on to say that its because he is going to be able to enjoy his money that is annoying people a fair bit. If he had served a much lengthier sentence there wouldn't be as much resentment. </BLOCKQUOTE>

I don't think that's true. I think there would be people frothing at the mouth at this for any length of sentence that wasn't a true life sentence, and possibly even then.

I thought you were going to do the Bill Hicks line then

"I don't mean to sound callous, but i am, so that's just how it comes out".
