I would advise against walking up to someone with a knife. lucky she didn’t get shot.

She did the job the government failed to do. That said, she did wrong.

She was NOT “protecting her children”.

Sarah Sands is more than welcome to move in to my neighborhood. Hell, I would even co-sign for the house next door.

This was in England, so probably not a huge risk there. Odd that if you kill a burglar in your own home with shotgun you get sent off to prison, but one can walk into someone else’s home and kill them and they get off.

Based on the excerpt here, I was pretty convinced that what she did was clearly wrong. But after reading the entire article, I'm more conflicted. The guy has 24 child sex offense convictions and is out on bail for two more. The kids are under 13 years old. Clearly the justice system was failing the community here.
Michael Pleasteds long list of crimes began in 1970 and spanned three decades. He racked up 24 convictions for child sex offenses and was on bail for allegedly sexually assaulting two children younger than 13. The assaults were said to have taken place at the estate where Sands and her children lived.

but one can walk into someone elses home and kill them and they get off.Most likely, if the killer was not sympathetic and the victim was not loathsome, it wouldn't have happened...

Why is it alive when it should have been executed.

Doesn’t sound like she is of the muslim culture.
To: ex91B10
Pre-emptively she did...and did what the government failed to do...rid society of a predator that had no business consuming oxygen.

Not so sure about that. Based on what I read, the victim was out on bail for sexually assaulting two little kids AT HER ESTATE. That seems very odd to me.

Why is it alive when it should have been executed.
And even if you concede that the justice system screwed up the previous 24 times, why the heck was he out on bail next door to where he allegedly sexually assaulted two kids.
To: nickcarraway
Yes, this was a horrid, despicable man. No, she was not justified in stabbing him to death just because of her understandable revulsion. On the day the final encounter is described, this man did nothing to put her or her children in inimate danger.
Yes, he lived next door, which was frightening and disgusting. No, she cannot walk about knifing every person who frightens and disgusts her. Nobody can. If she were a male single parent, or if she had not been a sweet faced young lady with a good complexion, I guarantee she would have been dealt with more harshly.
That said, this man should have been either executed or imprisoned for life many years ago.
To: SZonian
A little personal history, my mother married a pedophile and I separated from them all as they accepted his “healing”
My daughter is safe, he never touched her but I had to threaten him to his face that I would kill him for badgering my older sister and beating my mother. You have no clue how much anger can be stored up when your children are involved. When my daughter emerged from her mother I was there, and at that moment every man in the world became my enemy, only relinquished totally when she married.
She did go off but I have suffered that very look from my Stepfather when he was describing my sisters body to me and my brothers.

There is the issue right there that makes this problematic at most, and perhaps even laudatory.

It was England. Knives are as good as it gets.

Mother Gets Off Easy for Killing Pedophile Who Lived Next Door...she was handed just three years for manslaughter. She could be out in less than 11 months.
They should have given the prosecutor and parole agent 25 each years .

Just doing the job the justice system refused to do.
3 1/2 years is a bit harsh in my book. I would have let her out on bail and then set the trial for January 2115.
