This is justice?

Well…not sure what is going on in the courts around the US these days, but I know I don’t like it….if you haven’t heard, on of the trendiest legal defenses that is being used across the country tries to get judges to take the economic impact or the “suitability” for jail time of the defendant when sentencing. The latest is this guy out in Oregon who got caught for his 7th DUI which has a mandatory minimum sentence of 120 days for repeat offenders, but this guy was let go with no time because the judge thought jail time would impact his business too much…yep, I guess now that the rich truly are immune to any law if it may cost them some money….just like the judge out east who wouldn’t sentence a money manager to any jail time after he stole millions of dollars since he didn’t think the defendant was “suitable” for prison when he should have gone away for at least 10 years…and you remember the defense lawyer that got a kid off in Texas for killing 4 people in a drunken driving accident by citing he was damaged by “affluenza”…being so rich all his life that he didn’t understand that there are consequences to his actions…what the hell is wrong with this country? No wonder there is so much criminality going on with the rich…they know they can get away with it…geez….
