‘Wannabe gangster’ with ‘small man syndrome’ strangled ex-girlfriend in front of her two-year-old

1. Is small man syndrome an actual thing or just a stereotype?

2. What a despicable creature he is, I bet he doesn’t feel so big now he’s in prison

3. Supported in court by his new girlfriend – how do people have so little sense.

4. *Jack Brenan, also known as Jack Brennan*

   FROM THE ARTICLE.

5. [removed]

6. Just two years for strangling, coersive control and multiple threats of violence, with a prior criminal history?!

   He’ll be out in a few months. Bet the victim feels very little comfort..

   I wouldn’t be surprised if his new girlfriend is scared of him.

7. Amazing to belittle every short man in the world with sayings like this regardless of whether theyre bad people or not. And you wonder why some men are so angry and frustrated that they lash out? 

8. Would we say fat woman syndrome?

   No.

   Check your sexism against men.

9. 41 previous offences and he gets 2 years… hahaha what a fucking joke

10. 41 previous offences. And he only gets a 2 year sentence. Should’ve thrown a 10 year sentence at him.

11. Two years. Two fucking years. That means he will do 9 months.

12. Absolute vermin. But comments from the judge seem a bit perspective and not what I would have expected….

14. He’s going to have a fun time in prison when the other guys hear about his antics.

15. Someone who can do something like this to someone has no conscious, empathy or respect for others.
    But to show such aggression and violence in front of a child, to that child’s mother no less is borderline sociopathic.
    My son is 14 months old, my friends daughter is 18 months old. Even though they are both younger than this child I know how they react, learn and retain knowledge at this young age. For a two year to experience that awful situation, it will leave an emotional impact, whether its a fear of men or separation anxiety from mum.
    This guy will get off lightly and be smug about it and continue on the same road he is on. He should just be locked up for 40 years.

16. 41 priors…judge gives 2 years

    Can someone please for the love of fuck tell me why this isn’t attempted murder and why he only gets 2 years when he’s clearly a life long waster?

    Why are we so incapable of holding the irresponsible and dangerous to any sort of accountability?

    The judge acts like this man is rehabilitatable but he’s clearly a lost cause

17. It’s funny how body shaming never applies to a man’s height 🤔

18. I hope that the victim and all the other people he has attacked or vandalised the property of sue him into oblivion. So that he has to sell his 4 shops to pay their compensation, legal bills and his own.

    Then struggles to find a minimum wage job to pay for a roof over his head and food in his belly, well known throughout his country of residence as a thuggish ex con who beats up women in their homes as their distressed 2 year olds watch.

    Sounds like Judge Walters got the measure of him spot on; a wannabe gangster with small man syndrome who is “hardly a catch to any woman”, has more than 40 previous offences on his rap sheet and needs to “start behaving like a man, not an adolescent bully.”

19. Imagine if we had ‘fat woman syndrome’. This short man syndrome stuff is really toxic for young mens mental health. Not *everyone* gets to be above average height; otherwise it wouldn’t be the average height and that’s fine. Downvote all ya want want but it’s true.
