Ex-Cop’s Manslaughter Sentence: Community Service, Not Alcatraz
Kristian White, a former NSW police officer, was convicted of manslaughter for the death of 95-year-old Clare Nowland and given a two-year good behaviour bond plus community service. Despite NSW prosecutors appealing, the judges ruled the sentence 'albeit lenient, was not manifestly inadequate.' So, White gets to trade prison bars for community chores, because apparently, handling seniors is more about rehab than lockup.

Manslaughter? Community service? Justice system’s idea of ‘reform’ sounds like a bizarre episode of ‘Cops’ meets ‘Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood.’
When manslaughter results in community service instead of jail time, you’ve officially entered the twilight zone of justice. Next they'll hand out participation trophies for homicide.
Judges said the sentence is 'albeit lenient, not manifestly inadequate,' which apparently means 'you’re bad but not bad enough for a cell.' Tough crowd!
