” The state attorney general has appealed for a longer sentence to the Montana Supreme Court”

I don’t get this. Of course I think he should have been given longer time. But he had his trial, was guilty and was sentenced. He served his time. Is he to be recharged and then taken back to court. Somebody please explain why this is not double jeopardy.

According to this the judge screwed up on the sentencing.

excerpt:

“Baugh’s office has said he has no comment on the complaint. He has acknowledged mishandling the case and that state law mandates a two-year minimum prison term for Rambold. He’s also apologized for the comments he made about Moralez at an Aug. 26 sentencing hearing.”

You got it right.

And it should apply double if there's a federal beef under consideration, any insult to the President of the United States or his Attorney General being fully intentional!
