Concerns from a former Attorney General, over the sentences being handed down in criminal cases.

The Crown is now appealing teenage rapist Jayden Meyer's nine month home detention sentence, over the raping of four girls and the sexual violation of a fifth.

As well,  a Rotorua woman involved in a drug debt revenge kidnapping plot and brutal beating,  was sentenced to seven months' home detention in emergency housing.

Former Attorney General and barrister Chris Finlayson told Mike Hosking there's an emerging problem of judges having to consider too many factors at sentencing.
