The Hall of Fame
Some of you may remember not so long ago, I posted about the antics of jolly old Judge Tim Stead. This blog is not a newspaper, nor am I trying to write exposes. But I do like to google stuff, and today I have been googling Judge Julian Hall.
Here is a not-so-quick chronology of this good man's Crown Court career:
1999: Following the decision to drop a rape case, Judge Julian Hall has these wise words: "I think they brought the prosecution on themselves. if six men think it a good idea to have sex with one woman, they run the risk of being accused of rape." Compare this to his words in 2008 on sending a false victim to jail.
October 2004: Judge Julian Hall throws out a historical abuse case despite numerous witnesses, describing it as "stale". He also says of the offenders: "I think the best thing that should happen to people who behave in this way, is that they should get a very brisk elbow in the ribs at the time or be rejected." Perhaps Julian could give advisory talks to children in nursery schools on how best to deliver this elbow.
January 2005: A priest convicted of child porn is spared jail and the Judge concludes, "It is difficult to imagine a more admirable and productive life."
August 2005: No prison for a boy who sexually assaulted several elderly and vulnerable women, including an 84yr old. Apparently it wouldn't have been "productive".
February 2006: A community order for a man who had sex with a 13yr old. Apparently he "should have known better".
March 2006: Two years for a man who falsely imprisoned and assaulted a woman, and let's not forget the two charges of rape that were tagged onto this one.
September 2006: Judge Julian Hall breaks down in tears at the plight of Dr Margaret Davison, then sentences the driver who killed her to four years.
December 2006: The Judge jails a sex attacker for just three years for six offences (unspecified), and describes him as, "...a star in your world. It is quite clear that you have made a most positive contribution to the lives of many children..."
February 2007: A paedophile is fined £250 and told to buy his six-year-old victim a "new bicycle" to "cheer her up". To put this one in context, the offender was interrupted before he could do anything worse to his victim, and was previously jailed for sex attacks on children. Despite this, in Julian Hall's eyes the offence was "mild".
August 2007: Life sentence given out to a truly vicious sex attacker, with a nine year minimum. Perhaps the videos produced in this case tugged at Julian's heart-strings, because his reaction is a bit different to that in some of his other paedophile cases, for example...
August 2007: Two years for a child rapist because she "dressed provocatively". How provocative can a 10yr old really be?
November 2007: Jules gives a man in possession of Level 5 child porn (the worst level) a conditional discharge. I have mixed feelings about the fairness of this one - but either way the Judge certainly seems to have accepted the man's claim that it was accidental.
March 2008: He gives a non-custodial sentence to a 17yr old child abuser, stating he is "not dangerous".
March 2008: He jails a woman for a year who lied about a rape allegation. He also denounces her as "evil" and says she has let down "womankind". Slightly different language than that used to describe the child rapists and pornographers he has discharged from his court on previous occasions, no?
In the interests of fairness, I should point out that Judge Julian Hall has also handed out some healthy sentences, but these are all for murder or GBH - apart from the truly horrific case above, I could not find one where he gave any sensible remarks or sentences to sex attackers.
Fortunately, I'm not alone in worrying about this man.
Update: June 2008, Judge Julian Hall refuses to deport a man found guilty of ten sexual assaults on a 12yr old because he did not find him "dangerous".

Who 'judges the judges'? Who are they answerable to? And why do fools like this get away with it?

Ellie, lets have more of this, we all know that the CJS is hamstrung in many ways, like the Police are, but, that does not exclude proper sentencing when it is merited. Especially when a Judge has a track record of abysmal and questionable sentences. I would be even more interested in examples of the often pathetic decisions of the CPS on charging and failure to prosecute of cases.
Please keep it up, but be careful.

Makes you want to form a crowd with the other villagers, carry flaming torches and pitchforks up to his Honours house and dispense some real justice upon the Justice!
Bah humbug!
23 April, 2008 19:31
I have read all the links carefully and because I can reason well I know what makes this man tick. Oh dear.
23 April, 2008 20:00
There has got to be a way to have this man investigated or in some way audited for this kind of crap.
I know judges in the US hand out some strange rulings, but they don't do it too often or they end up having their toys taken away.
This guys sounds like he's got something in common with some of those people.

I've written to the Judicial Complaints Commission, and you all should too! http://www.jcc.govt.nz/template.asp?folder=OVERVIEW&lev1=4&lev2=1&no=1
I've also made a freedom of information request about his appointment, whether he has been complained about before, and whether there was any sanctioning or follow up to that.
I'll let you know what I find...!

mysogynist?

Concern4justice keeps an eye on this Judge. Unfortunately, many Newspaper Editors have been reluctant to publish letters about his strange behaviour and decisions.

If it makes you feel any better, Louisiana is doing its best to compensate. Our Supreme Court is hearing a case right now in which it is deciding whether that state has the right to impose a death sentence on a convicted first-offense child rapist.

Actually I think a year from someone who accuses a man falsely of rape is lenient.
He would have got more if found guilty.
Surely if you try to put someone in prison for x years you should get x year in prison yourself ?
If not why not ?

Last anon, by that token she should have got a supervision order.
25 April, 2008 20:02
I suspect this man is a sex offender. He's too angry at people who report it, too victim blaming and too hasty to make up excuses for rapists.
The man is a truly disgusting person.

"Last anon, by that token she should have got a supervision order."
True - but the problem is that she got a harsh punishment but that the others got a lenient.
Changing her punishment would have made it worse than it was before.

I agree with the comments on here about this judge. His attitude and "judgements" are very suspect indeed. He sounds like a sex offender to me. Does he live in Yorkshire by any chance? I hope and pray that he doesn't deal with the Shannon Matthews case and enable the cover up of the perverts in "authority", who were involved with what happened to Shannon. They are trying to make scapegoats out of those family members who were arrested. They were frightened for their lives, too scared to tell police, because there WERE TOP COPS involved, and a judge. Shame on them, however one took the easy way out and ended it all on a mountain. They sang his praises, in the press and in church.
It made me want to vomit.

The way you're reporting the "dressed provocatively" comment is unfair on Fenn.
In that case, the prosecution accepted that the girl looked like she was in her mid-teens and that the defendant believed she was in her mid-teens (the charge was rape in the statutory, rather than forcible sense).

Re Louisiana - yay the dark ages! Hopefully some of the lunatics on this thread will go and move there...
