A former high school teacher will be released Thursday from prison after serving just 31 days for raping a student who killed herself before the case went to trial.Stacey Rambold will be placed on probation for 14 years and 11 months for the rape of former student Cherice Moralez, who was 14 years old at the time.She took her own life just before her 17th birthday, and her mother blamed the sexual assault for her death.Judge G. Todd Baugh attempted to void the sentence he handed down after the short term drew quick and widespread condemnation, but the Montana Supreme Court blocked him from doing so.The 71-year-old Baugh said his sentence was “illegal” because it ignored the compulsory minimum sentence of two years in jail.The judge was harshly criticized for comments he made about the victim, saying the girl “seemed older than her chronological age” and she was “as much in control of the situation.”
harshly criticized wow what a slap on the wrist, this has become a trend to let predators out on the public after short too damn short sentences, kinda flies in the face of private prisons being stocked by paid for judiciary.
this seems to be a right wing thing to lessen rape impact and sentencing is this another part of the war on women?
