So, you think the armed robber should go unpunished, but you think the guy who stole $0.89 soda refills a few times needs to be punished to the fullest extent of the law. Got it.

You can't ignore the punishment aspect of incarceration.

Huh?

I'm not advocating for all convicted felons to be released. I'm saying its pointless to put this guy in jail.



I'm aware you're not, but what I quoted from you is more than enough for a defense attorney to run with. I'm not saying I agree with it.

No sense in potentially opening a loophole when it can be handled within the confines of the system through a pardon.

That's exactly what I said, word for word. Amazing.

well this was a case where this happened by accident due to the mistake of the retards working for the state. Its pretty clear this isn't a issue that would be happening all the time to where it becomes a slippery slope. Also in that hypothetical situation the felon has no proof, while this guy has 13 years worth of proof that he has changed.




I know all this, but you know as well as a I do an attorney could run with it and convince 12 dumbass jurors.

What loophole? If this guy doesn't go to jail, then the precedent set is if you get lost in the system for a time longer than your sentence, then you don't have to go to jail. Otherwise, you go to jail.

Just making sure I wasn't misinterpreting your thoughts. Thanks for confirming.

That is in fact a loophole out of serving your sentence.

Is that the threshold?

I am sure that with this complete frick up by the state, every case will be handled with the quickness now so I doubt many slippery slopes for a while in MoMo.

That's what I'm taking from the two threads I've seen you post in today too.

Terrific, why don't you make a thread about it and get out of this one?

That's the threshold that this case would set precedent for. If it had only been 5 years since his conviction and sentencing of 13 years, this really wouldn't be as big of a story. He'd be in jail serving his time.

Because a thread entitled "LNCHBOX is an idiot" would be really boring.

Like the overwhelming majority of Americans, I believe you lock their asses up so they don't commit more crimes.

This guy has stayed out of trouble and gotten his life straight and we're not supporting him or his family.
Turn him loose, IDGAF.

You can take your lame personal attacks elsewhere. No one is laughing with you.

Exactly. This isn't setting a precedent; it would just be making sure that it never happens again. I'm sure it will influence administrative procedures pretty heavily.

What about 10 years on a 13 year sentence?

I don't want this case setting any sort of a precedent. It would be hurting the very people it's meant to protect.

I'm not trying to make people laugh with me. I was trying to understand your reasoning in the two threads about criminals today. And, fwiw, I wasn't the one initiating personal attacks in this thread.
