[00:00:00]  I'm working with Liz, is her story or her name, and she was raped twice as a 14 year old, 15 year old.
[00:00:06]  Her perpetrator was jailed for six and a half years, was released after three and a half years for good behavior.
[00:00:14]  Two cases of child rape, three and a half years in jail.
[00:00:18]  How is that acceptable?
[00:00:19]  So, we have shockingly lenient sentences from our courts, and the way you deal with this is to put a 25 year sentence, a life sentence for child rape.
[00:00:30]  Then we will maybe begin to see changes, but if you let these people out for three and a half years for good behaviour, that's the problem there's no punishment for the crime.
