Why were the women given half the time of the man? It was their own freaking children ffs! That should have ensured they got the same sentence. I'm not asking for him to receive a lower sentence btw, they should all die in jail as far as i'm concerned, but it does irritate me when women talk about the bias in the courts being towards the men when every shred of available evidence shows that the opposite is true.
On the doorstep [Siouxsie] asks me whether right or left would be the best direction to find a taxi, and although her best bet would be left, I suggest she turns right. It is churlish of me, but it is she who has set the pace.

I'm guessing he got more time because he abused his fame and power, he might be seen as the instigator, some might see the women as his "victims". Obviously it's bullshit and those women deserve to have their insides torn apart by a Jack the Ripper-style murderer, but that's just my guess.

To be fair the judge was just following guidelines and there's actually strong rationale behind the sentences, watkins was guilty of far more. He was involved with both children for instance.
I guess it's just the fact that a woman who raped her own child will possibly leave jail in less than 7 years which rankled.
