File this in the "duh!" category!!!
Apparently I live in an even more democratic country than the one of my birth which is trying to spread democracy world wide. About 2 weeks ago, a judge in the city of Den Bosch was found to be unqualified, and therefore, 11 cases tried by this judge must be dismissed...and as a result, so far 6 criminals that were found to be guilty by this judge, had to be released back into society!!! One was found guilty of murder, one of rape, one of strangling HER boyfriend, and one of child molestation. Obviously not people that should be released into society!
The court had this to say about the "blunder":
"In a constitutional state like the Netherlands people can only be held if there is a legal basis for that. The fact that the suspects are thought to have been involved in serious crimes and that it is socially inadvisable for them to be released does not diminish this constitutional right."
Yikes! Apparently constitutional right comes before society safety!!
Sure, of course they were going to watch and monitor them until their next trial with a qualified judge, right? yes yes, of course.
oh wait, take a look at this headline:
Two released suspects missing
Doh! Yes, less than a week after they were released, 2 of the 6 are missing. That's not a very good success rate. And yeah, its the child molester and the abusive girlfriend that are missing. Remind me if I ever do something against the law, to be tried in Den Bosch so I can get released and have the chance to make my get-away.
