40 I believe.

Most likely they'll drop all of the little charges and let these stick. But I highly doubt that he'll get 40 years.


OH BTW...George Michael "Mikey" Bowes gets out of jail in a few days. His lengthy work release sentence is ending. But hey...he only killed one person. Oh and he was DURRRRRUNK! OH and Densford was Mikey's lawyer. Let's make sure to elect the man that defended this ####.

What is the max that he can recieve?

He had four charges of Negligent Manslaughter-Auto/Boat/Other Vehicle
He could get up to $5,000.00 - 10 YEARS for each.

IF, IF a judge wanted to they could give four ten year sentences to run consecutively, that would be 40 years.

Maryland criminal code CR 2-209
**NEG MANSL-AUTO/BOAT, ETC.**
...did, unlawfully, in a grossly negligent manner, kill and slay _____.
NOTE: This section is to be used only when the death results unintentionally from the operation of a motor vehicle, boat, or other vehicle. If the defendant intended to operate his/her vehicle so as to cause impact, see CR 2-207. If the defendant was impaired or under the influence of alcohol or drugs

The other charges were traffic violations.

10 yrs suspended to 2.5 with a year served - he ends up in local jail on work release for 70% time and will be out before his next bday. (That's my guess anyway). Of course, election year could make a difference...

How could they not find him guilty? There were plenty of witnesses.

He was trying to blame it in his diabetes. There were a few medical experts in court. Like the Bowes case, the court will decide whatever they want regardless of the facts. I have no faith in the judicial system here.

In other words, 20 max plus fines and lose his license. I wonder how much he pissed off the judge with his lame excuse that the judge obviously didn't buy.

He can try anything he wants. I have diabetes. I never killed anyone. I'm glad the animal is going to jail for long time.

What is the point of another hearing for sentencing? Could something change? Can a person request to be sentenced right then and there?

Both sides will be able to argue for the sentence they want. They'll present aggravating and mitigating factors. They can have statements from the victims family.

Neither side can prepare for sentencing until they know what he is convicted of, so they have to be given time to prepare after the verdict.
 
I wonder if any member of the media sat thru his sentencing today. I can't seem to find the "story" anywhere. :bubble:

Yup. I am appalled at the sentence.
UPDATE: Nov. 14 – Sentencing of Robert Rice for Fatal Collision
On Wednesday, Nov. 14, Circuit Court Judge Maureen Lamasney sentenced Robert Rice, Jr., 35 of Great Mills to 10 years with 5 years suspended for the fatal collision on August 4, 2011 on Point Lookout Rd in the area of Camp Cosoma Rd. in Calloway in which two St. Mary’s women were killed.
