maybe for those few criminals who actually think before they commit a crime, that if the punishment is so serve if they are caught, that they might not commit the crime.

only last year i had to give evidence at a crown court in a £3m fraud trial, the poor jury had to sit there for 3 months, and the cost of the trial and what did those involved get, suspended prison sentences, if i was on the jury i would be so that 3 months of my life was wasted, for those found guilty to walk free.
