  many of us go on about judges handing out soft sentences, however another side of the story has emerged.
  
  judge julian lambert has slammed "wet" guidelines in sentencing after he gave a burglar community service.
  
  the probation report suggested that 80 hours work would be adequate.
  
  although the report only was to be used as a guideline, the judge pointed out that if had meted out a prison sentence then it was more or less certain it would have been overturned on appeal. interestingly the burglar was caught because of finger print evidence which suggests that he was a repeat offender.
  
  another fact has emerged this week that suggests the criminal justice system is failing.
  
  courts are chasing £1.5 billion in unpaid fines!!!
