Whats happening to this country,less than 18 months for murdering a child,and all expenses tip home,how can anybody justify this
A childminder who killed a 16-month-old boy was given money from the government to return home to Malaysia after her release from prison.
Agnes Wong, 29, was convicted in January 2008 of the manslaughter of Hugo Wang at her Salford flat.
Manchester Crown Court heard she had picked him up by his ankles and flung him against either a bed or a sofa.
She was given the money, understood to be £4,500, under a scheme to encourage foreign inmates to accept deportation.
Bite marks
Wong was paid £120 a week to look after the boy as his parents worked long hours in a Chinese restaurant in Southport, Merseyside.
She had been looking after the child at her flat in Frank Cowin Court, Fitzwilliam Street, in January 2007 when he suffered severe head injuries.
Other injuries noted at hospital, where he died the next day, included bruising to his legs, bite marks and a burn.
Wong was released in July when, after time spent on remand was taken into account, she had served half of her five-year sentence.

hard to argue that the sentencing is inadequate, but...4,500 seems a small price to pay to be rid of people like that
aus should introduce something similar |

We are selling a lie to society though,what messages does it send to anyone?,our country is supposed to one of fairness and justice,this is just a disgrace. (but I'm not surprised,the price of a life now is about 6-7 years in the UK)Theres people got more than that for evading poll tax 20 years ago.,TV licence dodgers,fine evaders can be liable for six months ffs,someone should take a long hard look at this legal mess
