Calls for text driver killer Nikita Ainley to face the family of her victim

“@Mildred; I truly hope this lady will be forever reminded of her actions. My issue in the main, is that she put the family through hell by denying her guilt and only admitting it at the last minute. However, this is as much of an indictment on our ridiculous and inept justice system as it is on Ms Ainley.”

“Please don't try to suggest that any offence committed under the Road Traffic Act legislation is, by definition, 'not criminal'. Comparing it with speeding offences under the RTA is irrelevant.

She was jailed as a result and has a criminal record, her fingerprints, photo and DNA would have been taken upon arrest. Semantics aside, In all respects she has been found guilty of an offence which attracted a custodial sentence. In anyone's book it's a criminal offence, she committed a crime and she's a criminal languishing in jail.”

“Let's get this right. While we may deem texting at the wheel to be criminal, it is - legally - not.

It is covered under the Road Traffic Act, and the Construction and Use amended bit of the same, as I understand it, and breaking the law with regard to RTA is not "criminal". A few years back, I got 3 points and a £?? fine (it was before it was £60) for speeding. What I did was wrong, in breach of the law, but did not give me a criminal record, or indeed make me a criminal.

And Demonica666 - regardless of how relaxed, or uncaring she may appear (which is despicable and incredible, in spite of that seeming to be the attitude of the majority of young folk these days) she will have the knowledge of what she has done tattooed onto her soul forever.”

“Might I suggest that Ms Ainley has the above photograph of Mrs Timmings (devastated) tattoo'd to the back of her right hand, and a portrait of Mrs Rutherford (deceased due to this lying baggage) tattoo'd on the back of her left hand? That way, every minute of every day, this disgraceful woman will be reminded of the heartbreak her despicable and cowardly actions have caused.”

“Whilst I have no sympathy for the killer, I think she has to live with this for her remaining years. I dread to think how I would cope with that alone!”

“Meolemuker - to be fair, she's a bit too chubby to be a smack-rat!!!”

“This young woman has committed a crime found guilty and sentenced.what on earth could meeting the victims family achieve? this is starting to get like the american system tears tears and more tears.and before you vilify me .i lost a brother to an illegal act and the culprit was never broght to book.what's done is done!my family lived with it but it never consumed our lives.”

“Also, with the obvious exception of white van man, why is it that the drivers I see texting are nearly always women?

And to be honest, apologies to white van man because it's been a long time since I've seen any of them at it.”

“Is Dave Navarro a wind up merchant or is he a bit thick?

Texting while driving is not a mistake. It's a criminal act in the same way as any other crime committed is. Is it a "mistake" to murder someone or rob them or burgle their house? No it isn't, it's a crime.

There are many criminal acts that "used to be legal" but so what? They're now illegal.

She should have got far longer in prison, again it's a case of thinking about the poor little scum bag that caused misery to others instead of the victims themselves.”

“Dave_Navarro

People plead guilty because they get up to a third knocked off their sentence as a thank you for not putting the taxpayers through the cost of a trial.”
