Whilst I can understand your ignorance of this type of crime, I think before you jump to conclusions you should do your homework. As I said at the beginning the grooming ring I read about was made up of white males. It took over 30 years before justice was obtained for the victims for very much the same reason as the victims in this case.

This has been perhaps the point of failure in the system that these allegations have not been listened to or taken seriously by the authorities in the past," he said.
This may be a recent quote and referring to the recent cases, but, it's been said before and it appears sadly that nothing has changed. So in this case it is the authorities that throw the race card, in the case I referred to there was no race card to throw so they just blamed the child that made the complaints and then turned a blind eye. Nobody listens to the children!!
What I find really disturbing is you are yet again prepared to use anything to prove your political agenda of the time. If these things so disgust you why don't you do something that will make a difference to the children instead of yourself. Go be a social worker, a child advocate or perhaps you'd fancy being a barrister and prosecute cases like this one
Quote:
Nothing can emotionally equip you for the day that you are sitting alone in a cell with someone accused of having sex with a child, having to go through graphic details of their alleged perversion. God forbid that you are required by the court to grade haunting child pornography pictures. I recall with a sense of nausea the day in which I prosecuted a solicitor-advocate who demanded that the court re-classify a photograph of an 8-year old girl shackled on her hands and knees to a bed, from a level five (bestiality and Sadomasochism) to a level four, as ‘the presence of a dog’s head near her genitals did not indicate that she would have gone on to be forced to engage in sexual relations with the animal’. As much as I wanted to walk out and be sick, as much as I wanted to clear my mind of this awful vision; my professional duties meant that I remained on my feet, wigged and gowned, appearing to be ever the unwavering professional to those baulking in the public gallery. I later went home and cried. Becoming a criminal barrister, I learned, does not make a person an emotional automaton. You just become incredibly adept at maintaining a poker face and a cool head. What would you have to be paid to view an ever-haunting image such as the one I have described? Could you forget it? I can’t.
Grooming gangs, perverts, child molesters call them what you will they come in all shapes and sizes. I don't care if they are sky blue pink from Mars and worship the cheese monster that lives on the moon, they all deserve to die.
To be perfectly honest I'm now sick to the stomach of people like you using sexual crimes as a means to justify what cause is popular at the time, you thoroughly disgust me I can't believe anybody could be so foolish as to swallow the media hype. The next thing you'll be telling us is we're ruled by lizards ffs. Anyway I've said all I'm going to on this subject
