Chindamo and all that human rights!



Welcome back to Legally Blonde, fellow blogger on law school issues. Well, it is the 22nd of August in London and I am still on the 21st here in Jamaica but upon checking out the news on the TIMES, the focus is the same as yesterday. The UK's inability to deport Learco Chindamo based on the fact that deportation would be a breach of his human rights to family life. I mean sad as it is because the Lawrence family feel as if they have not been served justice but how can you deport someone to a country that they left at 6 yrs and who lacks fluency in the mother tongue? Hmmm!



According to the TIMES, there is some secret document that supports claims that Chindamo will be a threat to society. After all, based on his notoriety and public opinion, people hate his guts, so is it better to deport him so that he can get acquainted with his Italian roots and possibly get accepted or respect his need for family and let him stay and be ostracized. Check out the story and the info. Let me know what you think!

Good luck with doing the external programme, it's a really hard way of getting a law degree, but if you persevere then you'll achieve something pretty impressive. Although I think you're insane for trying it in two years while working. Why not do it in three? You're obviously more organised than I was!
