They knew about the convictions either through due diligence, or the fact that Miller told them. They then decided to pursue or not to pursue Miller based on those facts and the answers given to them by Miller himself. Are you suggesting it was wrong for the victim to make his feelings known?

Okay, I'm sure I could have come up with a more closely related example, but I was simply trying to illustrate the power of the "mob mentality." And then tried to draw the comparison with what happens on the internet today. In this case, this only makes sense through the Canadian justice system lens, provided you agree with the law that protects young offenders. Then you see outcomes that are slightly more severe than ideal. If you don't then you may not see effects of the "internet mob."
I probably could have been clearer in my earlier posts, so my apologies.
