Lifetime sentences for sexually abusing a minor.

What the petition asks
Recently a man was released from prison, 5 years after repeatedly raping a 10 year old girl. The sentenincing in the UK for crimes like this, is absolutely disgusting and quite frankly an insult to victims that have to live with these memories for the rest of their lives. We demand more for victims!
