Criminal Behaviour Orders: is sentence the end? – Mountford Chambers
‘Aside from the confiscation regime, the reality is that for most defendants before the criminal courts, the day of reckoning, the day of sentence, is final. Not so for defendants facing the possibility of ancillary orders; Criminal Behaviour Orders, Stalking Protection Orders, Football Bannings Order; the list goes on. Are these orders no more than what is necessary in a fair and just society to protect the many from the few, or are we simply applying a vengeful mark of Cain on those who have already, by virtue of their sentence, paid their dues to society?’
