Even Beatrix Campbell feels compelled to give us her opinion on the Ched Evans issue.
The erosion of trust in the legal system is a concern here.
Ched Evans was found guilty by a court, and that court also sentenced him.
If people are unhappy about a sentence they can always appeal to the court to have it changed to more accurately match their wishes. The court can then accept or reject their appeal. What is totally unacceptable is for virtual mobs to seek to overturn the sentence of a court (which sentence did not include any workplace restrictions).
Otherwise we are in the lynch-mob territory of the Ku Klux Klan
