Unbelievably a company has only been fined a total of £50k for stringing a wire across a path and killing a teenager.
It could have been anyone of us, cyclist, runners, horse riders.
They were ordered to pay an additional £50k in costs.
If you string up a man trap that can kill it will cost you £100k. And no murder trial.

Hmmm, wish I had 100K spare.

It's terrible but if the company would have driven over him while texting their girlfriend, they'd have got an awful lot less.
