Why has the world gone mad and what is the antidote to this lunacy?

ITV has done an investigation and found that suspects for murder can't be extradicted back to Brazil because it would 'breach their human rights'. Usually this pertains to the ECHR, 'the right to family life', or because they may face poor conditions in prison. One particular suspect claimed he would face discrimination in Brazil because he claimed to be 'gay', despite having a wife and family. These people have been allowed to live in the UK freely. Including a suspected murder; another who has just been found guilty of possessing images of children in the UK, and had already been convicted of raping a 5 year old and murder in Brazil.

Reading this actually drives you to insanity. What is happening here in the West. Why are we allowing this to happen? Why does no one care? Who is enabling this nonsense?

ITV News has also uncovered the case of a fugitive who was convicted of child rape in Brazil before fleeing to the UK, only to reoffend in London while wanted for his crimes back home.

In 2005, Marlon Martins Dos Santos was convicted of killing a man in Brazil, before being sentenced in 2015 to a further 14 years for repeatedly raping a five-year-old girl.

But by then, he had fled to the UK, where a judge again refused Brazil’s extradition request under Article 3 of the ECHR.

Following the ruling, Dos Santos offended again, this time in Britain.

In April he was convicted of possessing and distributing more than a thousand images of child abuse – including the most serious category.
