Sad and true, I thought 'animals', too, as I read the article. And of course it's nasty profiling to try to 'label' these 'innocent till proven guilty' animals but I wonder if it could be related to the roving gangs of young, unemployed muslims who've been targeting obviously non-muslim girls in some of the cities. This is just another sad, fresh example of the new gun problem of Australia, the UK and NZ. No guns for the law abiding citizens. But the criminals come well armed. And are often better treated than the victims whose lives they try to ruin.
They're treated better 99.99999% of the time, unless they're actually executed. Even then, they live at the Hilton until execution day.
The criminal faces a life of watching cable TV, being brought 3 meals a day via room service, and their drug of choice (coke, meth, or heroin) is readily available. They live better than they did on the outside while the family never gets their normal life back.
