But can you give me an example of something like a court ruling where this happens or is it all just hearsay and people you know excusing this behaviour or does it actually happen where it matters?

Yes it does. Contrary to what you might think there is something of an anti-middle class bias in the courts where 'extenuating circumstances' lead to concurrent sentences, suspended sentences and 'time served' and suchlike.

So are you saying the middle class or lower class folk get favourable treatment?

The feeling among some judges is that if you have had some of life's advantages thrown your way, and you still end up in front of them, then you are truly desrving of a lesson.

Put crudely, the poor err because it's all they know, the better off already know better and still stray, therefore they deserve a greater punishment.
