Of course you do. What's the matter with you? She's a mother. -- nm - Factotum Jun 13, 14:18
Maybe not the finest argument, but like ty, parents are going to try to protect their children. No matter what. -- nm - pmb Jun 13, 14:13 45
- well it clearly worked - senor dentista Jun 13, 14:14 44
  - If the sentence is too light (and I admit I am slight on the details of this case) that's on the justice system. - ty97 Jun 13, 14:22 34
    - when you can get a max of 14 years, and you get 6 months, you got off light. -- nm - groiny Jun 13, 14:23 33

        right, I don't think anyone expected he'd get 14 years. prosecutors asked for 6. - b. Jun 13, 14:48 7

        the sentence can only be appealed if it's unlawful, which it wasn't. so it's just recall, state assembly impeachment, and possible censuring/removal* - b. Jun 13, 15:01

        you have to consider how hard it is to get a woman to even report a rape to begin with..... - groiny Jun 13, 14:53 2

        I have a problem with anyone who rapes anyone, regardless of their social status. -- nm - groiny Jun 13, 14:59

        I am not really arguing anything, just that they tell you the max is "x" - groiny Jun 13, 14:47
      - Would seem so, but lynch mobs second guessing judges is an uncomfortable phenomenon at best -- nm - Factotum Jun 13, 14:26 20
        
        I wish people would stop misusing "lynch mob." that's not what's happened here. - b. Jun 13, 14:34 19
        
        It turns out he had been arrested for underage drinking in Ohio, but as he was a minor, it appears the judge wasn't aware of it. He also lied about - jnine Jun 13, 14:56 4
        
        he trusted turner's statement, which wasn't complete and had the lies; but all of the earlier stuff was in court documents that were released last - b. Jun 13, 15:09 2
        
        There is an article now that says he gave a very light sentence for domestic abuse just before this one. He was a prosecutor of these types of cases - jnine Jun 13, 15:14 1
        
        yah, I read a local paper's piece with his history including that case. nm but: -- (link) - b. Jun 13, 15:21
        
        ^that goes down there -- nm - jnine Jun 13, 15:05
        
        Ok. But perp had zero priors, wasn't that so.. ? + vic had zero recollection of any of the incident - Factotum Jun 13, 14:38 13
        
        "haven't seen zilch from the case and seen no tv news features" - I suggest you choose to not discuss this then. -- nm - b. Jun 13, 14:44 1
        
        But what do you expect? - Factotum Jun 13, 14:47

        You're calling someone #TeamRapist and you have the nerve to paint someone else as not being classy? -- nm - SGTAmerica #TeamCap Jun 13, 14:56 6
        
        to be fair, his post sounded like he was kind of siding with the criminal there. -- nm - groiny Jun 13, 14:57 5
        
        Yeah, but no. The guy clearly committed a rape and I wouldn't object to a three year sentence. (Particularly since I still don't know the details in - Factotum Jun 13, 17:10
        
        He was asking about mitigating circumstances... - SGTAmerica #TeamCap Jun 13, 15:05
        
        Yeah, the victim didn't remember the incident, but the 2 guys who chased this guy down had a pretty good memory of it. -- nm - Will Hunting Jun 13, 15:04 2
        
        plus, ya know, all of the physical evidence. -- nm - b. Jun 13, 15:10 1
        
        Certainly not doubting that the sexual act took place and that he took grave advantage of her (to the extent that it fits rape criteria). -- nm - Factotum Jun 13, 17:20
        
        It's called devil's advocate - Factotum Jun 13, 14:44
  - I need to know: Have you followed this case very closely and know all the details to the smallest minutiae? So much toxicity and hate. -- nm - Factotum Jun 13, 14:19 4

  - she let the judge rape her in the chamber after the sentencing. -- nm - groiny Jun 13, 14:15 3
    - Well, gump, your mother really wants you to not go to gladiator school -- nm - zeitgeist Jun 13, 14:16
    - different California judge (that guy was in O.C. and just got reelected) -- nm - senor dentista Jun 13, 14:16 1
      - He was just banging his law students in chambers, no rape. What a guy! -- nm - jnine Jun 13, 15:08
