Why do you always tag me in topics Im already posting in? Stop. That shit is annoying. I dont need a notification every time you need attention.

Im pointing out that youre calling for harsher punishments to young teenagers than what has already been agreed on for adults. Im not telling you to agree with the precedent or speaking with any bias. Im also not speaking authoritatively on things I dont know, such as these peoples ability to become more empathetic.

Dude, just stop

You're arguing for precedent like that is the only way the legal system ever works.

By your same logic, no white collar criminal should face significant jail time, because they damn near never do. White collar criminals should only ever go to country club style prison, because that is what precedent is.

You realize that precedent also fuels all sorts of inequality in our legal system?

Precedent says Derek Chauvin gets off with no jail time.

I highly doubt you agree with a high percentage of all legal rulings in this country so I'm kind of weirded out that this one time you're using precedent as a way to argue about what justice is.

what else can one hope for when demanding a longer prison sentence for one who has been properly convicted?

I'm hoping that if these two criminals receive a sentence comparable to their crime that they'll consider the notion that actions have consequences. I kind of doubt that will be the case with their current sentence.

It is when you want to throw them in adult prison or, God forbid, have them executed.

Seriously what psychopath wants to have a thirteen year old put to death?
No one called for them being executed Einstein, you're the only person to say anything of the sort.

Im talking about maximum allowable sentences for adults and youre going off about white collar crime. Youre not trying to have a real conversation. Leave me alone.

@shockthemonkey

Do you understand what a maximum allowable sentence is? You understand this isn't something set in stone that can never ever be changed right?

You are under this weird assumption that if there is a rule in our legal system then it can't be altered. We aren't even talking of our legal system in the entirety of this topic. Some of it is just what do you personally feel is fair.

I brought up white collar crime, because you're trying to argue that sentences should be based off of precedent and don't seem to understand that people's arguments are critical of precedent as well.

Can you explain your reasoning here?

How do you figure that 6 and 8 years respectively is enough time?

And similar crimes also receive the same slap on the wrist

You are welcome to that opinion, but it doesn't change the fact that, given the context, they objectively did not receive a slap on the wrist.

TommyG663513 posted...
Like do people like @TheOtherMike and @shockthemonkey realize how awful this logic is?

1. Don't @ me.
2. You're replying to my literal first post itt, so I'll thank you to not lump me in with other users who have been posting the entire time and making arguments I haven't.
3. The logic is, given the context, that the punishment is in line with the crime. If you have issue with sentencing being light in general that's fine, but that's a separate issue.

seems like some people ITT are mad about the one death but also want to throw away two more lives

they're children, might as well just kill them now if you want to put them in prison for 20+ years
When I was their age I knew carjacking was fucking wrong. Don't feed us "they're just kids" bullshit. They're old enough to know what they did was wrong and this plea deal is a miscarriage of justice.

Im not sure why people are angry.

the girls got a light, but well within the expected range of the case sentence.

You could argue they didnt deserve it because of their callousness, but like that kind of callousness is too out of the ordinary for a teenager.

Personally, you could of thrown the book at them and they probably would of deserved it, but its nice to see The prosecutor use a delicate (not sure thats the word I need but itll work for now) touch thats typically Reserved for rich/ white kids.

TC is fundamentally correct that rehabilitation should be the first choice. They are 13 & 15 for Christ's sake.

That being said I still won't side with TC beyond advocating for rehab, because I suspect he's dishonest and made this topic just to troll/agitate along racial lines. Like he always does.

Meanwhile the Bever brothers got life with no parole and life with a chance at parole

The two girls that lured their friend into the woods to sacrifice to Slenderman got:

Weier was sentenced to 25 years to life, an indeterminate sentence involving at least three years locked confinement and involuntary treatment in a state psychiatric institute, followed by communal supervision until age 37.

Geyser was sentenced to the maximum, 40 years to life, an indeterminate sentence involving at least three years locked confinement, in addition to involuntary treatment in a state psychiatric institute until complete resolution of symptoms or until age 53, whichever may happen first; followed by continued communal supervision, periodic reevaluations and/or reinstitution and further treatment, as needed, as required by the sentence imposed. While Geyser will periodically have the opportunity to petition for her release from a mental health facility in the future, she will remain under institutional care for the duration of the sentence. During her trial, Geyser had been committed to the Winnebago Mental Health Institute and was the youngest patient there.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_Cassie_Jo_Stoddart

Both got life sentences. Only 17 years old each.

One of them seems absolutely regretful of their actions, if the documentary featuring him is anything to go by.

These girls returned for their phone after murdering a man.

Edit: scum that takes an innocent life willingly and show no remorse in doing so deserve life.
