Admitted to raping 4 teens, and judge lets him off with no jail time after praying on it.

2958

I take it his prayer reached Old Testament God.

2959

He’s on the sex offender registry for life, and his probation terms are strict and will land him behind bars quickly if he doesn’t stick to them. So it wasn’t just a stern “don’t do it again” accompanied by a wink and a high five.

I’m a bit torn on this one. On the one hand I’m a believer in rehabilitative sentencing over punitively throwing people in jail to become lifelong criminals. On the other hand, it’s obvious that if he wasn’t a rich caucasian kid he would have been able to get this kind of deal.

2960

He already violated probation though, after having being placed on probation during the period pending sentencing. That factor seems to be an important missing aspect.

edit: parole not probation. whatever, doesn’t change the intent

2961

Looks like it all took place while everyone involved was under the age of 18. So whatever youth laws probably applied. Still you can tell big money was behind this sentencing.

Some seriously messed up family shit going on here:

Belter’s Mother, Tricia Vacanti, Is Accused of ‘Grooming’ One of Her Son’s Victims to ‘Be Prey for Her Predator Son’

2962

He was 17 at the time of the crimes and is being sentenced as an adult.

Yes technically a minor, but we’re not talking 13 here, and he wasn’t being tried as one either.

edit: holy shit just saw your article edit and quote. That is seriously messed up.

2963

If we don’t let young white male rapists get off then who is going to be tomorrow’s Republican leaders?

2964

I read the article that is not statutory rape that is rapey rape.

2965

What happens in the party house, never stays in the party house.

2966

Yeah, it wasn’t consensual.

The parents need to be hammered in court and I hope the victims file civil suits against the parents.

Also, the rapist said he had been watching porn since he was 7? How crazy is that?

2967

Also, HIGH chances that shiznit was recorded on someones’ phone.

2968

There is no plausible good justification for a sentence of probation here. Which means it’s affluenza treatment.

2969

Apparently there are 30 charges pending against them.

I might add the mother and step father are lawyers, which makes it worse somehow

2970

So stoning then?

2971

We could go Koran instead, and lop off the offending…digit.

2972

Better the turban than the MAGA hat!

2973

How the hell do you shoot your own daughter while out hunting?

2974

Take daughter hunting.

Gun accident LOL.

Dead daughter.

What’s so complicated about that? It’s what the 2nd amendment is all about!

2975

Does your daughter happen to be named Liz Cheney?

2976

If I built a guillotine at home for fun, and accidentally killed my child while playing around with it, I’m pretty sure I’d face some charges, but the insane nature of the set gun rights to 11 legal regime makes it uncertain whether this nimrod is going to be charged with anything at all. It’s an accident! An accident that can only occur if you’re carrying around a guillotine, sure, but an accident nonetheless!
