That seems like a ridiculously low number, considering it’s less than they would have had to pay her if they had legally hired her full time for that period.
EDIT: see below.
Am I the only one who wasn’t expecting the couple in question to themselves be black? 👀
Prison, don’t mind paying them off, fuck the cunts into a cell and let them see how it feels to have your freedom taken away.
It’s good that there was a conviction, the compensation doesn’t seem to me to be enough. Not sure what the maximum is under the law.
Give them life without parole. Fucking scum bags.
>Precious Izekor’s barrister Gavan Duffy QC revealed there was a former good relationship between the two women, and said there was a complete lack of violence or physical assault.
So: if you aren’t actually beating your slave, then it’s OK. Phew!
But I thought only white people kept slaves ?
Sometimes you just want the punishment to be the same crime they committed.
I like the code of Hammurabi for this kind of thing.
They should be her slave for a few years

This happens a lot within immigrant communities. Someone wants to move and looks for help or advice from their fellow countrymen. And sometimes the person they trust is actually exploiting them. There’s been all kinds of scams. Marriage scams, pension scams and whatnot
Most common though is probably “employment agencies” that are set up all across Europe to take the poor people from the east and the south and send them to a richer country with all kinds of promises but when they get there almost always the conditions are awful and there’s lots of abuse. As the people are not likely to know the language or laws of the place they were sent a lot of illegal shit is happening there
I’m disabled and I hired a housekeeper a year ago. She’s from a Slavic country and I’m pretty sure that her abusive unemployed Irish boyfriend is living off her income whilst he forces her to work as many jobs as possible. I’ve been trying to help her out in any way I can, and this info is really helpful. I can’t force her to get help, but I’m happy to know that I can give her resources when she’s ready to get away from him.
People disgust me
I know race doesn’t come into abuse, but seeing this story about a defenseless 9 year old recently, above doesn’t surprise me;
I’m trying to understand how someone from Nigeria who can’t read or write is granted a visa in the UK. I always thought they were quite strict.
I work in recruitment and we jump through hoops trying to prove qualifications for overseas professionals looking to come here on work permits. Is the victim not facing deportation now?
Edit: by ‘here’ I mean Ireland but I’ve recruited for UK companies too and the system is much more stringent.
Inb4 woke redditor cringesplains why this is ‘indentured servitude’ and not ‘real slavery’
Notice how the victim is repeatedly referred to as Nigerian in the article but there is no mention of the perpetrators’ origin.
It is a subtle example of how the media will only use a person’s race to show victimhood. If race is significant to the story then the headline should be “Nigerian couple who kept vulnerable Nigerian woman as domestic slave to be sentenced next month”.
