Your great alumni Debbie Ng Chung-yee just released one of the absolute worst verdicts of all time. The cyclist who lost his life and the driver that has to pay HKD4500. Even a retarded monkey could make a better decision. I would be embarrassed to associate my program with her. She is a disgrace to every judge in Hong Kong and the world.
ReplyDeleteDebbie Ng Chung-yee decided to overlook the facts as well as the defendant's long history of speeding and illegal driving when she blamed the victim who was obeying all traffic laws when he was killed. We are told never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity, but how bad must the HKU law programme be to turn out such a specimen of incompetence?
