And it comes from a Judge, so very rare indeed.
Ignore the headline: 'Sorry would have gone a long way': Teen's remorse questioned after fatal RnV crash and read the story.
The story is about a young lady who made a mistake. A bad mistake that caused the death of her friend.
The key word there is "mistake".
The New Zealand policing system (Can't call it "justice") is such that everything has to be blamed on someone and that person penalised.
Mistakes are non-existent and every happenstance is a deliberate action according to the "Law". No accident can happen without someone being penalised.
In fact most of that policing system has one purpose: It's a "yob" scheme for shysters, keeps the useless bastards off the streets.
The prosecution of the young lady, as is the regular prosecution of people in similar situations where a mistake or an accident has caused the ire of the always corrupt porcine types, was for no reason other than State revenge - the young lady had a life.
The judge erred in not pointing that out to the otherwise unemployable lot but then, one can only assume in a fit of remorse, took the very correct course and has recognised that to further penalise the young lady (She had already offered financial compensation) would be unfair.
Well done Judge John Berseng!
