A reader praises justice being done in Northland.

A reader praises justice being done in Northland.

Re: Drivers sent to jail.

Well done Judge Harvey, it's about time the justice system backed up the thin blue line of New Zealand and sent a clear message in sending repeat offenders and people that disrespect the law and law enforcement officers away for longer sentences or locking them and throwing away the key.

I can only see this is the first step to change.

Keep up the great work Judge Harvey.

We look forward to more news like this.
