Rapist praised by judge for converting to Islam

Daily Mail  A judge lambasted a rapist for claiming his victim was a liar – then commended him for becoming a muslim.

Judge Anthony Goldstaub QC sentenced Stuart Wood for seven years for the attack, then told him: ‘You have turned to Islam and this promises well for your future, particularly as you are now an adherent of a religion which respects women and self-discipline.’  Hey sis, you better wrap yourself in 8 yards of heavy fabric so I am not tempted to rape you.

Speaking at Chelmsford Crown Court, Judge Goldstaub strongly criticised Wood, 34, for pleading not guilty at his trial which meant his victim was put through the ordeal of having to tell 12 strangers ‘the most intimate details’.

‘This she did with dignity and courage,’ said Judge Goldstaub. ‘You, through your counsel, called her a liar and suggested she had invented rape.’

The judge added that Wood, who had previous convictions for indecent assault on underage girls and for violence, had shown no remorse and still protested his innocence about the attack in August last year in Colchester, Essex.

He added that Wood had achieved the humiliation he intended on his victim.

Wood, of no fixed address, pleaded guilty to assault causing actual bodily harm.

He was jailed for seven years for rape, nine months for ABH and three months for common assault, making a total of eight years. He will be on the sex offenders’ register indefinitely.

  1. AS YOU ARE NOW AN ADHERENT OF A RELIGION WHICH RESPECTS WOMEN AND SELF-DISCIPLINE.

    As for self-discipline, Churchill’s observation on mahoundians’ fanatical frenzy, as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog has never changed throughout mahoundianisms’ history, and judge’s stupid and ignorant remarks on something that he doesn’t know squat about won’t change that.

    As for respect for women, Michael Vick sure respects dogs a hell of a lot more than mahoundianism respects women.
