Brown pleaded guilty to causing death by dangerous driving and was sentenced to three years and nine months in prison at Swansea Crown Court.Sentencing, Mr Justice Treacy said:"But it seems clear to me that he [Brown] ignored one of the most obvious and basic rules of motoring."In all probability, he lost patience and must have decided to take a chance."Brown was jailed for three years and nine months and disqualified from driving for five years. He was also ordered to take an extended driving test.
"three years and nine months"
That is disgusting, 3 years for killing a man. The judge should get more than 3 years for that decision alone.
Makes me sick.
