It's a typical Trayvon Martin type.

Millions of them around.

And there will be the typical insane responses from the typical Trayvon Martin type apologists and supporters.

any act of violence perpetrated with malice, that results in death, should be sentenced as if it were murder..... case closed.... imo

Great post Sharon

4 ½ Years For for robbery,for handling stolen goods and Murder. You have to be kidding.
Sentence should have been for life. 25 years or more.

What is with people who can't handle being miffed without getting violent? So what, the guy said something to his friend. Now one man is dead and one goes to prison. Four and a half years isn't nearly long enough. It's not as if the victim attacked him physically.

The family should sit and wait............................. then a few years after he,s out............... have him killed

Guy had no reason to punch the guy. What a fucked situation.

The Attorney General is considering whether to review the four-year sentence given to a man who killed another man with a single punch.

Andrew Young, 40, suffered a head injury and died in hospital after the assault in Bournemouth in 2013.

Lewis Gill, of Sutton, south London, admitted manslaughter and was jailed at Salisbury Crown Court on Friday.

Justice Secretary Chris Grayling said the Attorney General was considering seeking a longer sentence.

He called it a "repugnant crime", adding: "I think most of the public will feel justice hasn't been done."

He said: "In a case where [the Attorney General] judges the sentence to be too lenient he can go back to the courts and seek a longer sentence. He may chose to do this in that case."

Dorset Police described the killing outside a Tesco Express store in Charminster Road as a "violent attack on an innocent man".

CCTV showed Mr Young, who had Asperger's syndrome - a form of autism - apparently challenging Gill's friend who was cycling on the pavement.

Moments later, Gill, 20, who was walking along behind, was shown punching Mr Young in the face. Mr Young fell backwards and hit his head on the ground.

Gill, who carried out the assault on 6 November, had an extra six months added to his sentence after admitting an unrelated handling stolen goods charge and breaching a suspended sentence order.

Should be an extra 6 years. Ridiculous

He wasn't "miffed".

He was a cowardly predatory opportunist that saw a vulnerable target on which to take out his already smoldering anger and sociopathy.

He did it because that is what kind of animal that he is and he thought he would get away with no consequences to himself.
