A burglar from Nottingham has been freed from jail on appeal so he can care for his five children.

Wayne Bishop, 33, was jailed for eight months for breaking into a rugby club and crashing into a police car.

He argued the judgement breached his human rights and the Court of Appeal agreed not enough attention was paid to the effect on his children.

Mick Taylor of Nottinghamshire Police Federation said he felt Bishop had been "let off" by the court.

Bishop, of Southchurch Drive, Clifton, who raided Mansfield Rugby Club along with three other men in September 2010, apologised to his victims after being released from Ranby Prison.

More in the link, whilst I feel for the fact he needs someone to care for his kids, he really should have thought about that before robbing somewhere.

To get off attempted murder just say you have strong religious beliefs and the spirits told you to do it. Walk out of court laughing.
