This is a true story:
My Aunties uncle (Noel) actually beat his mother (an elderly lady) to death and dumped her body at a (i think) Mt Druitt Hospital and, he got i think 4-6 years for Manslaughter. It was on the news maybe 8-10 years ago? some of you aussies may remember it. My aunties mother went on the 7/9 and 10 i think news about the incident (this i think was when they didnt know that Noel had done it). The event shattered the hearts of everyone in my family, she was a very nice quiet old lady who never hurt a fly, and now she is dead...
Noel should have gotten life for taking a life, yet if he was caught selling drugs he woulda got 10 years...yet you can beat an elderly lady to death and get out in 4? WTF
Edit: Oh and what makes things worse is that Noel has a long history of violence against woman, his first gf got a restraining order on him coz he use to beat her. His next gf he put in the hospital (he done a short stretch for this i thknk) and next he kills his mother...and got fucking 4-6 years!!!! I think it was 6 but got out due to "good behaviour"...now he has a new gf last i heard O_O. None of our family acknowledge he exists, my Aunty actually said to us that if she ever seen him walking across the street he'd be dead!
