Here's an example just how messed up the laws are and make no sense, the kid in the case above got 5 years in jail for stopping the cop but it seems no physical harm was inflicted upon him.
These guys get 3 years in jail for forcing a woman into prostitution.
These are just some examples but there are many more that are just disgusting and sickening, off the top of my head I recall a case where three men who had raped an 11 year old boy only got 3 years in jail (the accomplice only 1 year), a driver who raped a 12 year old girl and only got one year in jail, and much more.
I always hear and read of the outrage on how people are dressed and public indecency, but not once can I recall hearing these same groups complain of these joke of a sentence handed out for these serious crimes.
In my honest opinion I suspect that it was the reason for why the kid had interfered rather than the fact that he interfered which led to him being handed a harsh sentence; he was perceived to be helping spread what is deemed locally as public indecency. Whether I am correct or not the fact remains that there is no consistency with the law, and those who are prepared to speak up and voice support for this harsh sentence don't usually seem to be as bothered for the light sentences for more serious crimes.
