ELECTRICAIN JAILED

John Peckham
You may wish to see this from the Daily Wail https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9474547/Landlord-electrician-sentenced-death-boy-7-electrocuted-beer-garden.html


Not long enough in my view considering the electricians arrogance and lack of contrition.


I note that picture of the electrician does not match the newspapers age description of 24!

    Further down it says aged 74 so someone had a numeric keypad and a slippery finger. The whole business stinks though, not just the dangerous wiring, as far more things were wrong than just that. I guess he'll be out in 2024 or 5 depending how well he behaves while inside.

    The fact the other chap who did the lighting wiring was found not guilty surprised me as well.


    Personally having read up on it  a bit I'd have said 'so-called Electrician' as I'd not want either of them in charge of changing light bulbs, let alone doing any wiring.
