Families Against Murders Escalating.
F.A.M.E was established in 2008 by Jackie Summerford after the brutal murder of her daughter Bonnie Barrett.
Jackie wanted justice for her daughter.
She heard about others who had family and friends who were victims of the justice system, people who have lost loved ones to murders.
Jackie decided something had to be done and F.A.M.E was born.
Families Against Murders Escalating:
Work with other action groups to get longer sentences for violent criminals
Support the call of others, you take a life you serve life
Support others who have been victims of violent crime and their families.
Work with the community to change the current culture of gang and knife and gun crime.
To abolish the tariff for murders and paedophiles.
To abolish leniency for a guilty plea.
To ask for the judges to follow the guild lines with the maximum sentence is set within the guide lines.
To abolish the Leave of Appeal from tax payer’s money. Once sentenced, when there has been a guilty plea, and an abundance of evidence against them, if such an appeal is wanted, then this should be paid for by the perpetrator.
To have a starting tariff of 30 years for Murder in the first degree.
For those killers who do not disclose where they have put the body then there should be a further charge of “Denying the coroner’s right to do his job”.
More support for the families and loved ones of the victims.
To introduce boot camp style barracks for early offenders. Tough supervision, education and drug treatment and training should be taught as well as respect. There should be a 3 month minimal sentence unless the offence is drug related then 6 months treatment should be given.
When more than one person has taken part in a crime and the courts do not know for sure was primarily reasonable for the act, then all should be sentenced for withholding HM Queen’s evidence. Then maybe one defendant will change their mind and talk.
