Class War issue 81: One Law For Them

Not many people charged with murder get bail. Millionaire Alun Phillips, charged with murdering his wife, did. Even more bizarrely he paid £30,000 to security guards to stop himself from escaping, as a condition of his bail.
 
Phillips was eventually jailed for life, but we would not be surprised if he has done another deal with the judge, buying himself an island off Spain to serve his sentence on.
 
Staying on this subject, were we the only people to notice that many of the members of the Wonderland Club, an Internet paedophile ring, received sentences shorter than those jailed for public order offences at J18, N30 and Mayday? Was this because most of the Wonderland Club appeared to come from professional backgrounds, or to put it more simply very similar backgrounds to the person sentencing them?
