Go to jail

If the appeal court doesn't increase this sentence, I would be very surprised:   

A Melbourne man who ejaculated on women at music festivals will not spend a moment behind bars or be registered as a sex offender.

Muhammad Bilal Khan, 40, today narrowly avoided jail in the Melbourne Magistrates' Court for crimes which his victims said left them feeling unclean and uncomfortable in their own skin.

Instead, the father of two was given a community-based order and 250 hours of unpaid work, a sentence which prosecutors are already considering appealing.

He pleaded guilty to three sex assault charges and another of indecent assault.

The court heard he was supported by his wife, who said she was proud to describe her husband as "a man of high moral standards, strong values and decency".

But Magistrate Tara Hartnett said that description was contradicted by the offending against his victims.

"It was despicable conduct by you and purely for your own gratification," she said.

That's a nuttily devoted wife there, too.

He did it four separate times over 4 years.   Of course someone who does that, repeatedly, needs to be registered as a sex offender.   And to serve time.

I don't like being mean to people. But clearly some sort of jail sentence needed to be applied here just to maintain decorum. Kill shot pushing politicians need to hang.
