Re: 4 metal detectorists each face up to 7 years jail
Should be much longer. It is high time that the sentence laid down, is the minimum time served, not that the word "served"
is appropriate. 25% of the time the judge/magistrate states is roughly all of the time spent in jail, spending a life of leisure whilst in there.

I used to have an issue regarding having an inferiority complex, I no longer have an issue with being inferior.

These moronic people are destroying a great hobby and should get more than 7 years for robbing us of history and thinking they could get away with it.

Throw the book at them and confiscate all their detecting equipment then ban them from using a detector for 20 years

As you will see I agree with you, but, did slightly alter the end of your post.bryan162 wrote:Throw the book at them and confiscate all their detecting equipment then ban them from using a detector for LIFE
They are scum, and need to be shown just what we responsible detectorists,
and non detectorists alike think of them.

Life of leisure ?
You know nothing about it John , let me lock you up in a 9 feet by 9 feet cell at least 22 hours a day and yes that’s at least 22 hours .
A hard bed that’s caravan sized bed not a single bed, 1 blanket . Yes you have a t.v that you pay for, it has 5 channels if your lucky with no remote .
Toilet that’s 4 feet from your bed , and not 1 second of privacy.
That’s only starters, don’t believe anything you read about prison life , it’s a long way from the truth
Yeah proper life of leisure John
They deserve all they get , and I also think 7 years should mean 7 years inside
If u believe.,look 2 the dawn and u will know that i'm watching and waiting for the time when we'll always b together...There can be only one..IXOYE

Did I hit a NERVE, whoops. What do you expect Sympathy?, you wont get it from me, but, I do know what the cells are like, and the bed, and the toilet arrangement, having seen them from the other side of the fence.
I stick by my previous comments.
