"How many lives has this guy ruined?" LOL, how about none.
Lives ruined. What garbage.
99 years is asinine.
Speaking of assinine,what are you, a cattle rustler?
If I raise 400 beef cattle, and sell them to someone who doesn’t pay me, I’ve lost my whole year’s income.
Now I can’t pay any of my bills and lose my farm. My kids need to eat and have clothes to wear.
Contrary to what you may think, most cattle are raised by the little guy. This can be devestating to them.
The SOB got off light!!!
PS; Most have far fewer than 400.
You are missing the point.
This guy didn’t just “steal a few cows.”
He was a serial offender, multiple instances. It was a three-strikes-you’re-out situation.
This guy is, in simple terms, a bad man. He needed to be locked up for good.
You're right. They should have hanged him.
