It's a little cringy, but gives you an idea of who they were dealing with.
The sentencing is harsh to say the least.
- threwawasy1228 7y agoHarsh is an undrestatement, this guy should have gotten a few years at most. The sentence he got is absolutely ridiculous.
- jessaustin 7y agoWould we all agree with this if his victim had been white?
- threwawasy1228 7y agoI didn't even look at what race the victim was, you are commenting in bad faith. I don't think the guy should get any time at all for doing this, probation would be more than adequate.
- jessaustin 7y agoSorry about that; I need to recalibrate my assumptions. Not everyone reads TFA before commenting. I'm normally not a throw-the-book-at-them kind of person, but I don't think any employer who locks his employee(s) into an uninspected burning deathtrap should get off without prison, regardless of his mental state at the time. There is too much history behind this. I'm also not convinced that this dude actually has any mental problems beyond "asshole with too much money". I already have half of that mental problem...
