Heinous offence - relatively unpunished.

"A headmaster caught fishing with an out-of-date rod licence is waiting to hear if he will lose his job for having a criminal record.
Bob Yeomans, horrified at his oversight, immediately pleaded guilty. He later paid a £50 fine and £70 costs and considered it the end of the matter.
But almost a year later the offence was flagged up by the Criminal Records Bureau following a routine background check."
It is times like this when you most regret that the death penalty is not available to courts.
