Just Who Is The Real Victim Here??

A double-decker bus driver who killed a nine-year-old girl when he crashed into her while high on drugs has had his jail term increased.

Yes, it's this one. Four years was the original sentence, which for once woke up our debased justice system administrators:

The Solicitor General referred his sentence to the Court of Appeal, arguing at a hearing on Wednesday that it was 'unduly lenient' and should be increased. Three senior judges ruled the sentence should be raised to six years and eight months, and that Asolo-Ogugua should be disqualified from driving for five years upon his release.

Only five? 

Nonetheless, his lawyer seems to be somewhat confused about who is the victim here - he believes, as he is paid to do some might say, that it's his client: 

Gregory Fishwick, representing him, said the case was a 'tragedy', and that while the sentence 'might be classified as lenient', it was 'not unduly so'. He said: 'He will never forget this. It was a tragedy, one that he will feel forever.'

As will the child's family. You know, the family of the real victim here.
