It “is the epitome of injustice” as well as “dangerous” for a judge to have given a sentence of 10 weekends in jail to a former upstate New York police officer who pleaded guilty to raping a 13-year-old girl before his forced resignation, according to a prominent advocate for child sexual abuse survivors.
“This sentence is the epitome of injustice and a dangerous nod to child sexual predators letting them know, ‘No worries, we won’t go too hard on you,’” Kathryn Robb, the national director of the Children’s Justice Campaign at the Enough Abuse organization, said on Thursday. “This little girl will be imprisoned by her memories for life, while [the rapist] loses a mere 20 days of his liberty.”
Robb, an attorney, has helped state legislatures across the US reform laws addressing child sexual abuse. She added that “rape of a child is one of the most horrendous crimes with lifelong effects on the victim”. And she maintained that the case centering on ex-Rochester, New York, police officer Shawn Jordan was unconscionable for anyone who believed in the ongoing need for stiffer criminal punishments and more substantial civil damages in instances of child molestation.
“Justice” like this is what leads to the creation of Vigilante Justice.
because I know how sensitive the mods are, NO thats not a Call for Vigilantism, I’m saying injustice like this inevitably leads to vigilantism, and the best way to avoid vigilantism is to not give slaps on the wrists like this child fuckin rapists.
We’ve passed this point years ago.
Brock Turner, rapist who got free due to “affluentenza” or whatever the fuck they called it.
The husband and wife duo who held assault rifles outside their home.
Kyle Rittenhouse
Fucking Donald Trump
Brock Turner was the CA college rapist who only served 3 months in prison because the judge decided it would hurt the “boy’s” future to have a harsher sentence. Brock Turner later changed his name to Allen Turner to avoid being associated with being a rapist.
The affluenza case was from TX where a 16 year old kid was out driving drunk and killed 4 people and injured 9 others in an accident. The judge only gave him probation because he was so used to being rich that he didn’t know right from wrong.
Considering I am reading this post after just reading about another where a serial child rapist was let go after a 15 year old had called 911 saying he had drugged her and threatened to kill her. They found her drugged and shirtless in the middle of the street where she had told them he was filming the abuse he was doing. Many of the victims appeared to be 12 but the prosecutor wanted to let him go until they could verify the age of the kids in the videos. One of the victims killed him after his release. Good job, prosecutor. They knew the age of the girl who called 911.
