most of the people in this forum are coming down heavily on alistair periera and want him to be punished heavily.
I agree what he has done is entirely wrong and he should be punished. but wat punishment court has given him ( 6 months ) is i feel truly justified. He did not wish to kill anyone purposefully. It was an accident and we must remember teenagers make mistakes. By putting him behind prison for 6-7 years and spending his youth with hardcore criminals is def not going make him a better person.
Instead give him 6 month prison and ask him to do compulsory social service for a certain period of time, as courts generally do in usa. There's a slight possibility that it might make him a better person.
