This book provides a pragmatic blueprint for rectifying failures in current sentencing practices that are meant to deter crime and support its victims.Frank Gilroy examines the justice system's impact on the victim-survivors of crime and compares it with the true attitudes of criminals who prey upon society. Common-sense legal strategies are presented by him, guiding the reader through issues that seriously impair the effectiveness of criminal justice systems. The reader is informed by the observations, experience and knowledge Gilroy gained from his four decades as a frontline police detective and subsequent career as a solicitor. Gilroy knows what is failing in the administration of criminal justice and he appeals to government to show courage when shouldering its paramount obligation of protecting communities from predation by criminals. He believes it is time to accept the fact that 'Criminals don't flee from Counsellors'.
