- βοΈ Judges are criticized for imposing lenient sentences on grooming gang members, often citing their "good character" and "community standing" as mitigating factors, even when the crimes involve raping young girls.
- π‘ One judge reportedly sentenced an abuser based on the victim being 13, rather than her actual age of 12-14, to ensure a lesser punishment.
