    Unduly Lenient: The Fordingbridge 3

    3 Offenders, 2 Traumatised Victims, 1 Judge, 0 Days in Prison. Aprox. 830 cases are submitted to the UK's Unduly Lenient Sentencing Scheme each year. Members of the public and those affected by the crimes committed can ask for the case to be reviewed by the Court of Appeal if the sentence doesn't match the public's expectation for the crime. And every year, between 100-140 have their sentences increased.... but what happens to those who don't? This is REAL.
