    Cody won’t be required to pay a cash bond. Instead, Rosauer ordered a $5,000 personal recognizance bond, which Cody only will have to pay if he fails to show up to court when required.

    Wow, can any other criminal get such a sweetheart deal?

    Can’t wait to see this asshat in jail.

    And then for his victims to sue the shit out if him.

    Fuck this guy, he deserves everything coming to him.

      The article said he’d only get probation if convicted

        That’s the criminal penalty. The civil suits that follow should bankrupt him for life, OJ Simpson style

      “Monday’s hearing, which lasted less than 10 minutes, was Cody’s first public appearance in the town since he resigned as police chief…”

      Yep.
