Put the Judge and the Perp in the same Cell for 20-years; no parole for either.
He has been doing that since before Romney left him the state.
More reason why I welcome eventual Muslim conquest of the US. I really like the harsh way they deal with criminals.
As much as I'm sick of the cold,I have to say that November can't get here soon enough!

Judge rules accused killer with low IQ must be freed; can’t be competent

LAWRENCE — A judge has ruled that a Lawrence man with an extremely low IQ must be set free because he will never be competent to stand trial for the 2000 murder of a Salem, N.H., man outside a Lawrence bar.
William Beal, of Salem, was beaten to death outside the Calumet Tavern. Eric Falardeau, 29, was charged with second-degree murder in Beal’s death.
Lawrence Superior Court Judge Howard Whitehead on Tuesday released Falardeau, who has a long police record, because his learning disabilities prevented him from assisting in his own defense, according to published reports.
Unlike defendants who are found incompetent to stand trial, Falardeau is not mentally ill however, his IQ is borderline mentally retarded, according to reports.
If he can’t be tried and can’t be hospitalized for mental illness, Whitehead said he had no choice but to release Falardeau, according to reports. Falardeau has already spent more than 1,000 days locked up since his arrest.
Must be from a well connected family.
With due respect, can I suggest that when released, the parolee be ordered to wear a tether on EACH leg. That will double protect the public. s/
Rapists,it would seem,have always been close to Coupe Deval’s compassionate heart.At least the ones who are “of color”.And as for Coupe Deval being driven from office this November....don’t hold your breath.Tim Cahill,dutiful RAT hack that he is,will see to it that Patrick is reelected with about 40% of the vote.And then,miraculously,Cahill will be given a judgeship or named Registrar of Motor Vehicles.It’s already been worked out at RAT Headquarters.
