Hm... I think if the court looked at him as a foreigner they wouldn`t lock him but gave him 5 years " week" verdict. Specially to british citizens, our court is more then soft. Remember the case with Maxim Staviski? He got 2 years " week" verdict for killing a person and puting another person into coma. |

| I must agree with you varnagirl although they have made some very small steps in the right direction but as said here if this was a case in the uk then he would have got off with a smacked hand. |

Not quite true. We know a lad that was a convicted pedo he got a lengthy sentence with no parole in the UK. The thing is here, that this guy has got 15, will he survive the sentence. In the UK some get a lesser sentence for Murder No one has yet considered the poor child who will also now be serving a life sentence with her memories. |

| Its true Tony what you say about the young girl, but I have to say that more and more of the sickie's are getting lighter sentences and given treatment in so called hospitals or warden controlled buildings . |

| The following text is far clearer and detailed with no room for confusion or doubt, as the dictionary definition for Molistation is to pester or harass in a hostile manner. here we are talking about RAPE Brit paedo rape sentence A British expat engineer has been jailed for 15 years for the brutal rape of a six-year-old girl in Bulgaria after her trusting grandparents invited him round for lunch. Colin Tucker, 53, moved to Novo Gradishte, Bulgaria, in 2006 where he made a hit YouTube video about the joys of giving up the rat race to become a rural shepherd. Tucker pounced on the youngster when he persuaded her to come to his his home while he was walking her to the local shop after the meal. Mayor Rumianka Draganov said: " We never expected he was capable of such things. He came here in 2006, had no job, so we offered him a job and took him in. He seemed happy, and we never had problems with him. What I suspect is that he might have been hiding from other child abuse in Britain."
Tucker - who also has to pay the victim's family 30,000 pounds in damages - has 15 days to appeal against the sentence. Nikolay, your quote:- I see progress in the Bulgarian courts, may I ask, do you live in Bulgaria or cloud cuckoo land Can somebody explain to me why a Judge awards the little girls family £30,000 in damages, he is in top secure prison for 15 years so where is the money coming from. I am a great believer that the punishment should fit the crime and if he raped the little girl he has got what he deserves |
