i didnt follow this case so i cant necessarily comment specifically on it, however my comments will be about our judicial system as a whole. I think that our judicial system is becomming a joke.
We had a person in wisconsin (my state) that tortured and killed someones dog. Before i say anythign more ill tell u im a dog person. Now he got 12 years in prison. I think he should definately got jail time. But 12 years for killing a dog is horrible. Michael Vick killed dozens and got 2 years. Anyway, there was a 15 year old killed by a drunk driver who blew a stop sign. And how long does the drunk a-hole get? 10 yrs but with good behavior prob 5. This kinda stuff is playing out everywhere.
Look at that football player who ran over and killed that guy (i think in Florida?) and got nothign NOTHING.
I think we need to take a hard look at our Judicial system and pull our heads out of our butts. Maybe do something like singapore (caning a dude for stealing a cd player) or more like the middle east. You kill someone u die plain and simple. Now that might be extreme and there could be arguments. Losing control on ice covered roads kinda thing. Im mainly talking about the this guy shot that guy kind of murders or drunk driving murders. To me if you get drunk and then get in a car it should be premeditated murder or homicide at the least. not this manslaughter or negligent homicide crap.
Sorry to rant but im kinda young (30) and i see the kids coming up the way they are and it disturbs me. Knowing they can get away with crap and you cant threaten,spank or do anything to them cause they'll call the police on you. I'll be the first to tell you that the few cuff's upside the head or kicks to the backside i got were deserved and appreciated.
