If it wasn’t for the gun. The people he robbed lost more than money. That’s a little more than flawed character. Whatever judge slapped him on the wrist, only for him to go back out and wave a gun in somebodies face. Re-election would be the least of his worries. And if he harmed someone.

In California, they’d give him 150 to life with (almost) no parole, even if there were no earlier crimes.

I wonder how much of the 8 years he will serve though?

I’m glad you didn’t send me to bed without an answer. Do you think this is excessive? I’m thinking six months down for shock probation then 8 community supervision. ButI have a bleeding heart.

this was a state case, I presume…..8 years!! that is a lot. Were there any rehab programs contacted pre-sentencing? You get something lined up for the sentencing, present it at the time of sentencing, or at pre-trials,(judges especially like a lengthy, like 2 yr, out-of-state program).

let me think? productive first time offender. No violence. But had gun. 4 burgleries 2 robberies. Maxes of 5 and 10 respectively. No minimuns. Can stack. Probably accepts responsibility 100 percent and would be a superior candidate for drug rehab. mmmmmmmmmmlet me go out on a limb and say 40 years
