What about the pos women who beat up the daughter and wife with cancer?

It should have been tried as a hate crime (though I am against hate crime laws).
I can't think of a more selectively enforced law than hate crimes.

Highlighting the absence of a hate crime charge should be the first priority of the coverage of this trial. However, the new left direction of The Advocate will almost guarantee it will not be mentioned.

Police arrested Dickerson and ticketed two others. They are all accused of punching the family.

I'm ok if they can prove habitual offender and give him a life sentence.

Hate crime laws are racist..

IIRC, he gets more time in jail if it isn't a hate crime because he is a habitual offender. That's why the decision was made

Yep.

quote:
Moore said his office is pursuing charges under the state's habitual offender law against Dickerson, a convicted felon. That would result in a potentially much longer sentence than a hate crime. He's also being charged with failure to register as a sex offender. The case has not yet gone to trial.
Louisiana hate crimes carry an enhanced punishment of up to five years in prison, Moore said, whereas habitual offender status carries up to life imprisonment.

I understand the premise but how can that not be an additional charge tacked on to all the others?
Posted on 1/4/15 at 4:38 pm to CENLALSUFAN
I can only hope that justice is served.

Let's picket. Oh I forgot I have to work.

No trial needed

likely the trial that called in 300 prospective jurors before Christmas to find 12 and 1 alternate the lawyers could agree on. I was a juror for another case. I was wondering why so many people were called that week when no other sitting jury but ours was in the building.
