It's a hard one as there are some strange things in there. For instance, he says he 'can't remember' the attack. I'd like to know why not. Drink? Drugs?
To me, they are no excuse. It seems, from the report, to have been a random attack on a stranger, so I'd say it was probably a sexual assault. If it had been just theft, you'd think he could have grabbed her bag and run.
I'd say the community order is a start but how about a fine as well and how about a compulsory order to see about whatever caused the problem in the first place-drink or drugs.
This is a man who may not be firing on all cylinders but using the excuse that he borders on impaired is no excuse in my eyes. In fact, if someone claims that, what are they saying? That the person is so bad that they can't know right from wrong? If that's the case then you'd be arguing they were a permanent risk to the community and could never be released out on their own.
It seems to me people use this excuse but still expect all the freedoms and rights that go with being an adult. So they need to accept the responsibilities too. It has been my experience that all children who go through normal schools, even those who may not be as bright as some others, understand basic right from wrong.
