“Sentencing 25-year-old Leitons today, Mr Justice Paul Burns said mother-of-three Skaidrite was the victim of an extremely violent and sustained knife attack. The judge described the incident as a “brutal attack” upon “a defenceless woman” but said it must be noted that the accused was suffering from a mental disorder at the time.”
She was stabbed 50 times.
12 years, what a joke.
12 years, for killing someone. Did the judge not hear himself when he gave that sentence?
Fuck me.
Seriously sick of this fucking shit.
12 fucking years? That’s what her life was worth?
All I’m getting from this is “Intent to kill” with the scape goat of “mental disorder” to get out of being behind bars for life. Manslaughter because he wasn’t right in the head? Please.
12 years? For stabbing someone 50 times and killing them?
He’ll have many years to get more stabbings in.
Yeah this is what’s wrong with this country and shit needs to change at this level. All of these campaigns against women’s violence are pointless when this is the standard in court.

At least all the legal teams got their full fees paid.
So it was a good days work for everyone involved.
It’s NOT about getting justice.
Ireland and justice are two things that are not compatible.
But someone who sells weed to their mates is the scourge of the community and should be made an example of.
We are such pushovers it’s a disgrace.
I don’t get it, surely if he’s insane he should be in a mental institution, or else he’s guilty of murder and should be serving life? Horrific.
