Dylan Brown Charged with Sexual Offence

[skeepe]

That is ridiculously weak for a convicted sex offender. The NRL has dropped the ball massively on this one. He should have been deregistered.

 

[yobbo84]

So 4 more weeks and $20k? That's insane. Weak.

 

[6 more kfc buckets]

Pearce got more for his dog act.
Make of it what you will.

 

[Ruby Roundhouse]

weak

 

[Pneuma]

weak

At the least we shouldn’t have seen him again this year imho

 

[Canard]

So the NRLs punishment, the sentence handed down by the court, letting everyone you care about down badly and having your name dragged through the mud, unlike any other bloke your age who did the same, isn’t enough?

get a grip, chief.

Where is this weird opinion that others in society get off scott free for similar offences coming from?

When it’s a nobody, it doesn’t end up on the back page of the paper

It’s pretty light actually and I’m an Eels fan. (I thought I’d let you know because you seem like a person who can’t read). Wow poor Dylan Brown, if he is going through all that… I wonder how the actual victim feels? Remember her, Mr.Bogan who thinks it’s 1930.

When it's a nobody, they tend to get much harsher treatment from the thing that can actually cause more damage, the court system.

Fmd, I knew I should’ve bought crayons in here.

I don’t condone his behaviour, I don’t think he is a victim and I don’t think he deserves leniency or preferential treatment. He has been punished by his employers and by the courts.

The point I was making was that all of that should be enough.

 

[This Year?]

He should be forced to play 2 seasons for the Dragons.
Fair and just punishment.

No one is going to prison for a first offence chest grab in a pub under the influence.

I know a guy that was groped on the genitals three times in one night by a drunk female. Security refused to chuck her out. He went to the cops that night in the cross and they didn't even attempt to find her. She would of been still dancing away in the same nightclub.
A female can give a false accusation from years ago and they'll set up a unit to investigate. Ruin the guy's life and after all is said and done, she'll get off free. Just like Kyle Daniel's who was accused of raping and groping children whilst being a swimming instructor. Nobody knows he's innocent cause the media virtually didn't cover the charges being dropped. I could write a book on false accusations.
Did Edwards plead guilty on the advice of his lawyers? Either plead guilty and receive a fine with suspension or fight it and let it drag on with a possible harsh sentence, I don't know. It's happened a before.
Until it's an even playing field with false accusers charged. I'm not going to give this kind of stuff any empathy unless a rape kit with DNA evidence is involved.

Who said anything about prison? Judges have a range of sentences available to them. Famous people are generally seen to get far more lenient punishments than nobodies.

 

[Perth Red]

Soft.wouldn’t have happened under Greenberg!
Should have been rest of this season and a $50kmdonation to a women’s abuse charity. Might make the players think twice, but then again some of them seem to be as dumb as a box of nails so probably not.

An alcoholic detox program might help

Its made worse when you libel a person that had no involvement in this case at all. The Penrith Fullback has nothing to do with this case.

Wait how do his 3 weeks where he was stood down at no fault get included? The stand down period is not a punishment or suspension?

For players who are found innocent, does this mean they have a credit towards their next incident then? Only other player I can recall being in a similar situation (Tyrone May) was stood down for a year, and then copped a 4 game suspension once the court case was over and the year he was stood down didn't count toward the suspension handed to him.

JDB should be credited 2 years for his stand down policy.

I’m all for punishing sex offenders to the full extent of the law.

But Jesus mate. That’s just cruel.
