Two teenagers who killed a man during a row over litter have each been sentenced to four years detention.
Evren Anil died of severe head injuries after he confronted the youths who threw litter in his sister's car window in Crystal Palace, south-east London.
Dejon Thompson, 16, from Thornton Heath, south-east London and Patrick Rowe, 17, from Tottenham, north London, admitted manslaughter.
He and his sister were waiting at traffic lights in her Peugeot 307 when Rowe threw a half-chewed Lion bar through the car's open window.
Mr Anil got out of the vehicle and threw it back at them, only for one of the boys to produce a 4in knife from his trousers.
The knife was held to his throat and he was then punched in the face so hard that his skull was fractured, and he suffered a haemorrhage that moved his brain 16mm across his head.
So let me get this straight, some yobs throw litter at someone, he throws it back, they put a knife to his throat, then punch him and kill him and they get 4 friggin years???? WTF??? Surely they should be looking at life??? What sort of deterrent is this bloody judicial system showing???
