Dani Alves 12:38 - Feb 22 with 1652 views | BarcaBlue | Found guilty of rape and sentenced to 4 years 6 months. The private prosecution was asking for 12 years, the public prosecution, 9 years. Because he deposited compensation of 150 thousand euros the judge gave him a near minimum sentence. This is despite Alves changing his story on multiple occasions, he denied it, claimed it was consensual, claimed he was drunk. The judge said there was no doubt the girl's account of events were correct, corroborated by witnesses, cctv and doctors. So this lying scumbag predator will probably spend another 18 months in jail having ruined the life of this young lady, and her family. In addition Alves' mother identified and posted a photo of the victim on social media. And Alves is likely to challenge the sentence. | | | | |

As higher minds than mine have pointed out - if an offence is punishable by a fine, or can be commuted by payment of a fine/compensation, it's only illegal if you're poor. | |

The very fact there's any sort of relationship between money and sentencing absolutely baffles me in this day and age. A crime is a crime, and the punishment should be befitting, irrespective of how deep your pockets are. | | | |

Quite right. It starts before the sentencing too, doesn't it. If you can afford a specialist lawyer with a track record of getting people off the hook... | |
