Former Cop Gets 102 Years

[AK-74me]

Los Angeles ex-cop sentenced to 102 years in raid case - USATODAY.com

Good, and F this Judge.

U.S. District Judge Gary Allen Feess said that Congress passed such sentencing laws "because they don't trust people like me."

"It's not a reasonable sentence," he said.

Why not?

These guys werent too bright.

How did they expect to get away with this crap.

Sure they pull one raid and a few things turn up missing ,that might be allowed to pass, but to keep doing this? Sooner or later ,some idiot supervisor,who had overlooked the other robberies had to wake up and say, "What's going on"?

"He's going to be 147-years-old when he gets out," Deitch said. "He's probably not going to see his children again."

I'm not sure this guy qualifies as a Cop. Looks like he may have planned this Pre-academy.

Unfortunately, like every segment of our society and armed forces, the few bad eggs make it bad for the rest of the force. That is the way it has been since the birth of the republic.
They arn't all boy scouts and though we want them to be, the reality is to respect the majority that try to be and be expectant that some just don't make the grade.

First, I have no sympathy for the cop. He violated the public trust.

But.... Is what he did worthy of a life sentence? I'm not a fan of mandatory sentences where a judge cannot take circumstances into account.

The sentence he got averages out to 2.6 years per home invasion, doing it under the ruse of a cop. Yeah I think that is fair. This is the worst kind of criminal IMO.

I agree what he did is atrocious, but IMO that isn't the "worst." I'd say child molesters and murderers are worse, and they don't get sentences as long as this.

I just don't like the idea that the legislature can make a law that takes away the authority of the court. Isn't that what separation of powers is all about?
