A few of the guys at the stink are working on setting up a fund me site for his legal defense.

Life in prison for the non-violent act of growing cannabis?

It just isn't fair, and those that sit on his jury should acquit.

6 months for almost beating a man to death.

DETROIT — A prosecutor strongly opposed a judge's decision Thursday to give a lighter sentence to the last of those accused in the severe beating of a 54-year-old man who stopped in their neighborhood after inadvertently hitting a child with his pickup.

This one embezzles (steals) 460,000$ and no jail time.

HACKENSACK, N.J. (AP) — The former public works inspector for a northern New Jersey town who admitted stealing $460,000 in quarters over two years has been spared a prison term.

A judge instead sentenced Thomas Rica on Wednesday to five years of probation.

Chance McKenzie Bowen of Helena steals from no one, and he doesn't act in any way violent, yet he face a life sentence?

Our society is so fucked in the head that it is almost unbelievable.
