A man who raped a 91-year-old woman and who police believe still poses a serious risk to the public, is to be released from prison within weeks.

Eamon Foley, from Castlederg, has served half of his 16-year sentence, and must be freed under the system of automatic 50% remission.

Mary-Anne McLaughlin died a month after the attack in January 1999.

[...]

While in jail, the 47-year-old has refused to take any sex offenders courses and an assessment panel termed him a high risk offender who presents a danger to any female - child or adult.

Police have been granted an interim order which means that when he is released he can only live at an approved address, can only use public transport and can have no access to children or vulnerable adults.

Of course, one has to wonder how successful this will prove in preventing him from committing rape, should he be so minded. After all, I imagine that if one is prepared to go out and rape people, the prospect that the act of rape might also be in breach of an interim order is perhaps not a great deterrent.

Apparently the sixteen-year sentence that Foley received was the maximum available under Northern Irish law. Steps are now being taken to give judges the option of life sentences in cases like this, and to remove the automatic 50% remission, whereby criminals in Northern Ireland automatically become eligible for parole after serving half their nominal sentence (and which means that Foley's sentences was, in practice, eight years, not sixteen). Such steps are to be welcomed - after all, if someone has committed a crime as heinous as that committed by Foley, and continues to pose a threat to public safety, then the only sensible options are life imprisonment and execution. However, it appears that they will come too late to prevent the release of this unrepentant and dangerous pervert.

Britain Welcomes Multicultural Rapists!

Exhibit One (via Laban Tall):

A Pakistani businessman yesterday escaped prison and deportation after being found guilty of a string of sex offences.

Naeem Waqas Rehmat was sentenced to three years' probation after being found guilty of sexually assaulting two women and a 14-year-old girl.

The 24-year-old restaurant manager appeared at Forfar Sheriff Court faced with possible deportation under the Immigration Act.

Rehmat, of 137 Dundee Road, Forfar, assaulted the women and the teenager at various addresses in Forfar in separate incidents over two years.

He assaulted one woman on various occasions between February 8 and May 8, 2005. And on a separate occasion he assaulted a second woman on one occasion between October 1 and October 31, 2005.

He was also found guilty of using lewd, indecent and libidinous practices towards a 14-year-old girl, on March 28.

Advocate Tim Niven-Smith said Rehmat entered the UK in February 2005.

As a commenter at Laban Tall's blog points out, this means that he must have started his run of perversion almost as soon as he stepped off the plane.

Exhibit Two:

A Polish migrant subjected a British woman to a violent rape only one week after he arrived in Britain, a court heard.

Michal Piotr Kwidzinski, 22, seized a 38-year-old barmaid as she walked home from work in the early hours.

The burly 6ft 5in Pole dragged his petite 5ft 2in victim into a builder's van where he raped her three times whilst holding her down by the neck and beating her head on the floor.

[...]

Sentencing him to nine years in prison, of which he will serve half, Judge John Neligan said it was "pointless" for him to recommend deportation after he has served his sentence because of "the current state of the law".

So, we appear stuck with both of these lowlife. At least Kwidzinski should be out of action for the next four years or so. But Rehmat, a man who attacked two women and an underage girl in the space of a few months, and whose entire life in the UK has centred around his perverted criminality, is still walking the streets as freely as you or I. I think that if I were a woman living in the environs of Forfar, I'd want to take self-defence classes, and possibly get my hands on a knife as well.

However, the failure to give Rehmat a lengthy custodial sentence is not the only thing wrong with the decisions of the judges in these cases. The second point is that both Rehmat and Kwidzinski are being allowed to remain in this country, when they should be deported. When they entered into Britain, they entered on sufferance, on condition that they abide by the law of the land. Having failed, and failed spectacularly, to do that, they have forfeited any right they may have had to remain here, and should be sent back the moment their sentences come to an end. Sadly, however, it seems that we now have a completely open door immigration policy, in which we cannot even deport murderers, let alone rapists and child abusers, and in which the detritus of every society on Earth are welcome to come to Britain, secure in the knowledge that they're coming to a country that is a very soft touch, not just on immigration, but on crime as well.

In related news, I read that the number of Britons emigrating to Australia has tripled in recent years. You can't blame them, can you?

Now this one made me angry!

Police are seeking a former Exeter cabbie, Noorullah Seddiqi, in relation to an incident of rape, and a series of sexual assaults on women. He failed to answer bail on January 9th, and has been unheard of ever since.

Now, as you might expect with a bail-jumping suspected pervert on the loose, old Plod was quite keen to get his hands on any information that might help find the said bail-jumping suspected pervert. So, it was decided to stage a reconstruction of the various incidents of which Seddiqi is accused, and put that reconstruction on the ITV programme "Manhunt", together with an appeal for any information. Sounds pretty sensible, doesn't it, even if it did take Plod six months to think of it.

Unfortunately, Plod had reckoned without the Devon Racial Equality Council (DREC, or should that perhaps be, drek). Now, as you might guess from the name, Noorullah Seddiqi is not a native of Devon. In fact he comes from Afghanistan. And the DREC claim that publicising the fact that an Afghan immigrant is a suspected rapist will lead those wicked white people to indulge in their favourite past-time, "racism". As evidence for which, they claim that when, in April (only three months after he went missing - well done lightning-quick Plod!), the police made an effort to publicise Seddiqi's alleged crimes, "twenty or so attacks and assaults" occurred in Exeter as a direct result of this. Quite how they can know that these attacks and assaults, if they actually occurred, were a direct result of the publicity surrounding Seddiqi is unclear. But they claim they do, and as a result they put pressure on Plod to cancel the reconstruction of the crimes, lest more "attacks and assaults" follow on from this. And Plod gave in.

So, because of the whining of a provincial branch of the race relations industry, the effort to hunt a man who is, in all probability, a serial sex offender, is to be undermined. Which might be understandable, if showing a reconstruction of the crimes on "Manhunt" was actually going to lead to pogroms, lynchings, and the total breakdown of society in every town and village from Dawlish to Barnstaple. But it wouldn't. Indeed, I doubt that any of the "attacks and assaults" which allegedly happened as a result of previous publicity surrounding the case actually amounted to anything more than verbal abuse, and spitting. If it did amount to more, don't you think the DREC would be screaming about it to high Heaven? And while spitting and swearing are not pleasant, they are nothing compared to rape. I would add, that in a city like Exeter, with a population of about 120,000, twenty minor assaults is really not that many.

The race relations industry has sunk to a variety of new lows over time, but I think that actively seeking to protect a suspected rapist - which is what they are doing - must be a peculiarly reprehensible action, even for them. I wonder if they feel proud?

Nonces Czech-Mated

I have long believed that castration is an appropriate method of dealing with at least some sex offenders (by which I mean, the ones that we don't actually execute). So I was pleased to read that in the Czech Republic sex offenders are often sentenced to both chemical and surgical (i.e. real, physical) castration. It is wonderful to know that at least some European nations continue to apply proper punishment to paedophiles, rapists, and other related scum.
If only we had something similar here. Sadly, however, the sentences that some of our judges give out give me the impression that they've actually had the operation themselves.

Of course, the liberals are none too happy to see their beloved criminal perverts suffering. The Council of Europe's Committee for the Prevention of Torture has raised the objection that some of those who were physically castrated did not give full and free consent, because they were told that if they did not so consent, they would face indefinite detention in a psychiatric institution.

Now, in my opinion, the Czechs are being rather soft in allowing these perverts (who, incidentally, need to have actually killed someone before they can be physically castrated) a choice. Rather, I believe that the only choice should be for the judge, and that should be, do you execute, or do you just physically castrate him? When you commit offences, you lose the right to object or consent to what is done to you in condign punishment for those offences.
But, notwithstanding my view that the Czechs are being a bit soft, I still envy them their way of dealing with these scum, and for the people at the Committee for the Prevention of Torture to kick up a fuss about this is disgusting. If they are really serious about stopping torture, perhaps they should take a look at saving more innocent people from sex offenders, rather than looking after the rights of these perverts. Really, words are inadequate to express my contempt for anyone who wastes their time or that of others complaining about anything that is done to a rapist or child abuser. Such vermin are just not worthy of our concern.

Update: On a related note, The Telegraph has a story about Jonathan King, one child abuser who definitely merits the application of the Czech method. Apparently, in his latest display of utter moral bankruptcy, King has released a music video on Youtube, praising Harold Shipman. At the time of writing, it's still up there, but I think I shall pass on linking to it myself.

Scum of the Earth Round-up

When this blog was in its infancy, I posted about, among others, the thug who attacked a 76 year old nun, after she caught him robbing the convent where she lived. Now, I proudly present to you some "people" who could give that creature a run for his money in the 'Biggest waste of oxygen' contest.

First up, from Nottinghamshire, the "man" who raped an 82 year old stroke victim:

Staff at residential care homes for the elderly are being asked to be extra vigilant after a bed-ridden woman was raped in her room.

A member of staff, at the home in Nottinghamshire, disturbed a naked man attacking the woman in her room at about 0520 BST on Sunday.

The intruder, described as black, slim, aged 20-25 with dreadlocks, ran off.

Det Insp Sean Anderson said the attack against the 82-year-old stroke victim, "defies belief".

Second, in Manchester, the 17 year old who shot a 12 year old girl in the head:

A 12-year-old girl has been shot in the head and critically injured in an incident in Greater Manchester.

Police were called to an address at Wembley Road in Gorton at about 1930 BST to deal with reports of a shooting.

Police and ambulance crews attended and the girl was taken to Manchester Royal Infirmary suffering from a gunshot wound to the head.

A 17-year-old boy from Gorton has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder. He will be questioned later.

And in our glorious capital city? Gang rape by children!

Two schoolgirls were attacked during a "terrible ordeal of rape, humiliation and degradation" after being lured to a park by a gang of boys, a court heard.

The girls were targeted by the three boys, aged 13 and 14, after getting on a bus in south-east London in November 2006, Inner London Crown Court heard.

The boys, who cannot be named for legal reasons, deny all the charges against them including six counts of rape.

[...]

Instead, the gang led the pair into a park where they carried out their 40-minute attack.

Mr Lucas said one was first forced to perform a sex act on one of the 14-year-olds, before being made to partially strip. He said she was then raped.

The barrister said before she had time to recover from her ordeal she was forced to have oral sex with the other two.

He told the court that in the meantime the second girl had also been ordered to perform a similar sex act on one of the boys.

Mr Lucas continued: "Both girls thought that during the course of the sexual assault they remembered one of the boys holding a phone up and it bleeping as if recording what was going on."

Of course, everyone, including the boys charged in this case, is considered to be innocent until proven guilty, and rightly so. But some animals have committed this heinous act, and they certainly merit a "waste of oxygen" award.

How should the aforementioned vermin be dealt with? Well, the Pub Philosopher has an interesting post on Japanese prisons:

Inmates are kept isolated and mostly in silence, and forced to obey hundreds of military-like rules. Strip searches are common, as are beatings.

Sounds good to me!

Update, 1st May, 10.30pm: Sadly, the 12 year old girl who was shot in the head has since died. It appears that the boy who shot her was 16, and may have been her brother. More details are here.
