Re: English Justice? - Or lack of it?

Better than worse is not necessarily good.

Justice for all falls through the cracks when it fails the victims.

When a person unquestionably guilty of a heinous crime can be freed due to a technicality, or by a provision set aside for age, then justice is trumped by law.

True, the defendants in this case were 13 and the law is designed to protect them.

However, the victim was three. He will never be four. And those responsible have not only not been sufficiently punished, but rather rewarded with the return of their lives.

Justice is indeed blind, and at times such as this impedient as well.
