He’ll be out in 10. The white judge was a racist.

If it's your family member who is murdered you'll adjust quick enough.

Part of the agreement for us all to respect and obey the law is that the justice will work well enough to discourage us from organizing a lynch party.

If a party to the murder of your loved one is walking free on the street, you're going to do something about it, so, the legal system found a way to handle the problem and keep us law abiding.

Should have just shot them all.
I’d send them a box of ammo.

That’s common core math at work

Question: Lakeith might do 65 years in the pen. Some old white judge offers a plea deal for 25 years. How f***ed up is Lakeith’s sheeatt?

On Topic: The Teen was still performing in front of his fellow hoods. Still pretending that nothing this court can do would ever effect him. That won’t last very long once he is separated from his gang and reality kicks in.

Off Topic: I was surprised that the local news station featured a rather overweight young lady; Valorie Lawson.
Nothing wrong with it, just that some stations seem to have stricter standards about the corporate look they want to maintain.

There are no "mental gymnastics" required here. He is guilty of being an Accomplice which has a long history in common law. You are guilty of the same crime as the person who actually did the crime, but you may receive a lesser penalty.

Remember "If you can't do the time, don't do the crime"?

Let him run free to wantonly commit crimes the next 10 years, and the direct cost of those crimes will greatly exceed $2 million. And that doesn’t include the incalculable anguish experienced by victims.

$2 million is cheap to get vermin like this off the streets.

...Do I think its fair? No, but they explained the law to him in the plea bargain but his lawyers either couldn’t get him to take the deal or they said they would be able to beat that rap. I’m sure it was a public defender...

A. I think it is fair. The whole idea of the law is to be a deterrent to crime.

B. I think the unstated real problem is that he has been in trouble with the law before and got off easy. He thought the same thing would happen this time and it didn't. Sucks to be him.

C. He will probably die long before the 65 year sentence is completed.

What difference does it make? The next Obama will come along and pardon him. Of course that’s if he isn’t out on parole first for good behavior (killing less than one other inmate a year for five years).

"I have a problem with the mental gymnastics involved in charging someone with murder who did not in fact commit murder."

I'm Charlie Manson, and I approved this message.

I was questioning the law being fair. He got exactly what he asked for. I agree with all your saying.

After reading the article, I see your point exactly.

I do not like that law at all. 65 years for a cop killing his buddy? It’s just plain wrong.

I agree. It’s more justifiable when one of the accomplices commits a murder (although I would think the more appropriate charge would be accessory to murder), but in this case it was one of his accomplices getting shot by the police. Unless they charge the police with murder, how can they pin it on him?

You comment causes me to think of the Beverly Hillbillies series I’ve been binge-watching.

Sharon Tate - Manson victim - played a frequent role on that show.

“65 years at roughly $30,000 / year = $1,950,000”

Yes, admittedly it’s expensive to house feral criminals, but when you put that number up against the distinct possibility that this Black “teenager,” if allowed to be free before he age where he needs a walker, would seriously injure or kill an innocent citizen makes it cheap.
