Ang Jury: Women's Refuge CEO says victims have been let down by the system in Jayden Meyer case

Early Edition with Ryan Bridge - Podcast tekijän mukaan Newstalk ZB

Claims the entire justice system has failed the five women sexually violated by Jayden Meyer. The Crown's appeal of the teen rapist's nine-month home detention sentence, has been dismissed. Meyer was convicted of raping four 15-year-old girls and sexually violating a fifth when he was 16. He's now 18. The judge says the sentence was "manifestly inadequate" but to sentence Mayer to prison now would undermine his rehabilitation programme. Women's Refuge chief executive Ang Jury told Kate Hawkesby the women have been totally let down. She says they were brave to come  forward with the process, which isn't an easy thing to do.
