Speaking to Sky News’ @cathynewmansky, Jazmine’s parents laid bare what survivors and their families are forced to endure: re-living trauma at the Court of Appeal when the original sentence should never have been passed, and a justice system with a shocking lack of judicial accountability.
As the victim’s father put it: “If there’s no accountability, what does it matter what I pass if I’m a judge?”
Our founder, @drproudman, who represented Jazmine, is calling for a complete overhaul of the criminal justice system. One case cannot change a system — but the opportunity this case creates to put victims at the centre of justice cannot be wasted.
The Court of Appeal’s decision sends a clear message: rape, even when perpetrated by children, will not be tolerated. But survivors shouldn’t have to fight this hard for justice. This is why judicial accountability matters.
