Yep and she got off - and IMHO therein lies the problem - no punishment and therefore obviously our justice systems sees it as only a minor offence therefore others will follow.

that kid will be able to drink anyone under the table by the time he's an adult

This just proves we are heading into a more and more depressingly stupid future

Has anyone seen the movie Idiocracy??

I've seen it.
Run, the Bogan plague is spreading at an alarming rate.

Its a catch 22 for courts. A normal person would be so ashamed of themselves that a dressing down by a magistrate would be enough to stop them from ever being so blatently neglegent with their child in the future. However in some case the offenders are below the mental/emotional thershold for genuine change or understanding. A court cant cure stupid.

Interesting.

Mother gets her 5 year old drunk - nothing happens...

Mother drives at 103km in a 100km zone - fine arrives in her mailbox before she even gets home...

Spastic at best...

uranium_death · 03-02-2010, 02:37 PM

I saw this online like hours earlier to when this was posted...

Have thought about it, and all I can say is that she got off far too lightly.
Young bodies are simply not designed to take in that much alcohol.

The system sucks.

Chopped · 03-02-2010, 02:45 PM

She is far below "bogan" level.

She is scum, slap her.
(she needs to be fixed as well)

LOWBA6 · 03-02-2010, 03:56 PM

I read about this earlier, i cant believe how stupid some people can be, it really amazes me.....

4Vman · 03-02-2010, 04:04 PM

Just highlights the enormous social and welfare issues we have in our communities....

FPV8U · 03-02-2010, 04:10 PM

Moe Women.. Enough said, i wish i could say I'm surprised.

I was thinking the same thing when reading the article. Harsher penalties wont have an effect on people who don't care about the penalties to begin with.
Especially after reading this, it sounds as though this is perfectly normal in her mind.

That is absolutely disgusting. What a disgraceful individual! What happens to the kid(s)? How the hell can they know she won't reoffend? The magistrate didn't want to jail her because of the effect it will have on her children! The effect will be good, she doesn't deserve to have children!

Mate that's silly. Every country town could be painted with the same brush if you so desired. If it happened in Ballarat, Bendigo, Shepparton, Geelong or wherever, you could all attribute it to locals of that area, and not some scumbag individual. Sure Moe isn't the nicest town in Vic, but I could think of MANY regional SA towns that make Moe look like South Yarra or Toorak in comparison, both aesthetically and with respect to the percentage of bogans and unsavoury individuals.

She didn't just 'get off' the charge... She was handed a Suspended Sentance... (which essentially is getting off)...

But, she'd already received 2 x Suspended sentances for previous charges...

I thought the idea of a Suspended sentance was that if you do break the law again (and not necessarily the one you broke last time), then you get hit with the supsended sentance, and the NEW charge also...

Suspended sentance means no fine, no conviction, or ANYTHING...

So now she has 3 x suspended sentances... when are they gonna lock this crazy ************ up...??

At least the poor kid isn't in her care anymore, and that can only be good for him... If you read the quotes in today's Herald Sun its enough to make you sick...

Anyways, I could go on for days about our RIDICULOUS system in the courts, and the laws... but what is the point...

In Victoria, its the state where you do what you want, and get away with it... Simple as that...
*(Except speeding - don't you dare to 3km over the limit, we will bury you here in VIC for that...)*

But get your 5yr old son ****ed... no dramas... all good...

**TUF_302** · 03-02-2010, 04:59 PM

Bring back public Lynching!, its the only way to stop the spread of this kind of scum!!

04redxr8 · 03-02-2010, 05:48 PM

Anyone else think we need the death penalty again?

gtfpv · 03-02-2010, 05:52 PM

That's it. It seems the system is only interested in getting more money from us for 1k over the limit, yet arn't willing to do anything about something like this where a mother is getting a 5 year old plastered. 44% ethanol on a brain that is still developing, not to mention the effect on his tiny liver.

zdcol71 · 03-02-2010, 06:43 PM

My 2 cents for what it is worth, ...it didn't take long in this thread for condemnation and lynching (not to mention the obligitory "death sentence"), to raise their oft seen heads.
I am sure nobody actually knows anyone like this woman hey?
I would not ,for a moment, condone the evil that has probably been visited on this kid, but this is a perfect example of the need to help ,if not this particular woman,then many others suffering from the sort of social degeneration that lets people think this kind of behaviour is acceptable.
Lynching her or locking her up for life won't cure this madness, so a little rationale before the thread gets too off track, although unfortunately, it didn't take too long to get the blah blah blah..103kph in 100 zone comparison.

FGII-XR6 · 03-02-2010, 07:23 PM

with 2 previous suspended sentences at a minimum should been put in a court mandated residential alcohol treatment program (rehab) with failure to comply resulting in gaol time. The child and the community would gain a greater benefit from this than just locking her up.

Geez Louise · 03-02-2010, 07:39 PM

As a parent...I am so angry about this as I am sure many of you are...

You need to take a test and get a licence to be a driver...but anyone can become a parent!!

Somethings just aint right! :(

ChrisA87 · 03-02-2010, 07:39 PM

yea thats distgusting behavior, au3xr6 i agree and disagree, a alcohol treatment for someone facing a possibility of losing her child for HER own alcohol problem would be recommended, but for some one who willingly give her child enough alcohol drunk/sober wat ever the condition, that as a result could KILL a child, shouldnt be in a position of parenting. GAOL time would be my opinion

That's the point. YOu can get fined for being 3 k's over, but you put your child at risk, then you get a slap on the wrist. She already said he likes his alcohol. Has she done this before or was he born with a dependancy to alcohol. Draw your own conclusions.

You can lose all your points and then be banned from driving. She's been warned before. Should she be banned from parenting?

No bucknaked, that really isn't the point.
You have quoted half a sentence of mine out of context, there is no comparison between accumulating points for minor traffic infringements and the content of the original post.
This is in the "non ford related" section of the forum, and has nothing to do with comparisons with other driving related emotion.
It's a tragic story that would be better addressed without recourse to car related logic.(IMO. only)

Emmzy · 03-02-2010, 08:28 PM

This is shocking!!!!

mrbaxr6t · 03-02-2010, 08:36 PM

:
alright! please dont slam Moe you want to point the finger of blame? point it squarely at the ministry of housing that have a baffling habit of housing single mothers with problems from everywhere else in Moe - and then when something like this happens people say "its the town" I can assure you it is not the town it is the individuals that the ministry of housing house here - thankfully due to the increasing in land values and rates increases accordingly it is no longer profitable to house single mothers here as their rents are based on their incomes when the rates outpace the yearly rent that can be collected the housing commission sells up and moves their tenants on - I am sick to death of people bashing Moe for it being a scummy place there are alot of good honest hard working people here like everywhere else - but as per usual lets dig the boots in and lets overlook the fact that the particular individual in question has been in Moe for less than 3 months, just so happens she got CAUGHT here so what does that say about the community here compared to where she was before??????????
