There is no hell deep enough, but this format makes it seem like he got significantly less than the 12 years he did get.
Compared to the 72 years the prosecutor wanted?
Yeah. I’m also not seeing if there’s a possibility of parole. So he might only be in for six.
All those church goers that testified on his behalf… apparently think it’s good and decent, “upstanding” even to rape a child. Constantly.
Oh you know he obliterated his own child's reputation in that church. By the time he was done with them they thought this was some kind of epic battle against the Antichrist.
As to the sentence length, I'm against extreme sentences for anyone unless you can prove they're mentally incapable of not re-offending in a violent manner. And in that case they should be in a mental institution, not a prison. 20 years is the most we should be sentencing most people, even hardened criminals tend to get settled by that.
