    Ridiculous. This criminal deserved closer to 20 years in prison. This injustice system we have to live with is failing the citizenry.

    A cop can murder the someone & only receive 1 year. But if a cop is murdered the criminal will be sent to prison for life or be placed on death row why not the same justice?

    I was in the courtroom for this, and while of course this isn't enough time, it's worth noting that the judge really did give what was essentially the maximum. His hands were tied at a max of 3 yrs DOC, and he explained that you earn good time in DOC, you can parole, and he would also be eligible for community corrections. In jail there is no good time, no parole and no ComCor option. But again, of course this isn't enough.

    Someone in these comments is listening to your hyperbole. When they explode into the news, remember what you typed. I hope you realize your words can cause people to react. I want peace. If you do not like the outcome, tell your local oficials. Do not say you want cops dead. That will not help anyone. It will only embolden the worst of us.
