Just noticed that the headline is the classic subset, aka X or Y, scam.
“4,256 criminals including rapists” sounds really bad, but that could be any number of rapists from 1 to 4,256, so in fact tells us nothing apart from at least 1 rapist was let off and the higher number means nothing.

Tom(iow): Ehh, shouldn’t that technically be at least 2 rapists? Because, you know, rapists, not rapist?
The Daily Mail is pretty much a huge sack of shit :/
