Good
Is it good enough?
At 72 it’s probably a life sentence.
Many defendants arrived at the hearing with their bags packed ready for prison. One of them was in tears as he hugged his companion before entering the courtroom.
Aww, boo fucking hoo. 🖕🏾
Y’all ever notice how much male sexuality is performative for the benefit of other men? I’m not saying that they’re gay, they just seem more motivated by peer approval and status than touching a girl.
I recently saw an interview with a stripper who said that the dudes who wanted attention from the girls used $100 bills and were discrete, while the dudes who tossed 100 $1 bills were more interested in the attention of their buddies.
Extrapolating this incident to male sexuality at large is idiotic.
The guy is right though. Testosterone peaks as a result of social circumstances.
Nothing about testosterone makes you sadistically drug and sexually exploit your wife for decades.
It does decrease sensitivity to consequences and decrease empathy. It also results in dominance seeking behaviour. It’s why what happened to the victim, is done more often by men than women.
A real shame. With that many assaults, it really should have been a longer sentence.
He got the maximum sentence.
depends on if they had chosen to sentence him for 51 crimes or one crime with 51 incidences. They should have sentenced the husband to 51x20 years, or 1020 years in prison.
That’s not how it works in France at all. You get prosecuted on all charges, but only condemned for the most grievous offense. So for a murder+assault+trespassing case, if found guilty of all charges, your sentence would only be for murder.
As all condemnation it takes context into account, like the assault + trespassing, but if there were limits on murder sentences then you’d only be sentence-able to that crime’s legal sentencing limits (there are none for murder, which is the only crime that has no sentencing limits).
The US prison system is made for maximal punishment instead of giving a chance for redemption.
The idea is to keep the prisoners away from society for as long as possible… And got further twisted by for-profit prison as the longer the sentence is, the longer they keep their slave… Sorry, prisoners, for cheap labor.
Her face in that thumbnail, so happy, and I think a bit at peace too. True complete peace with the horror that she’s faced will be a long time coming, but she’s channeled that immediate rage into justice. And started a larger movement to combat the ingrained misogyny in their (ours?) culture. It’s way too short a sentence for him, but he probably won’t make it out alive.
It’s the maximum legal sentence, and 20 years is absolutely no joke
