He is not facing this sentence because he stole a doughnut.
How many of the people commenting on this thread have been convicted of one felony? How about two?
If there was evidence that he pushed the lady, which I assume a jury will decide, he was willing to push a woman after having been convicted of and serving two felony sentences, risking a huge sentence, for a PASTRY. That’s all he needs for motivation.
Anyone willing to do that should not be out. This isn’t about Jean Valjean, who stole because he was starving and could not get work.
This is an employed thug who walks all over innocent people because a doughnut looks yummy.
Away with him. How many felonies, statistically, do you suppose he committed that he HASN’T been caught doing?
