Surely a more stringent sentence is in order. On the other hand, establishing a precedent that religiosity is a 'Get Out of Jail Free' card might prove helpful to Cherie's hubby one day.

I wonder how the victim feels after his attacker is effectively let off for breaking his jaw, because he is a “religious” man and should know better? Does it also show that Blair judged against the victim, Mohammed Furcan, because she deemed him to be less religious than the thug who broke his jaw?
