How about a bad person who acted according to his badness that he set the fire?

IIRC ... with people in the building. Am I recalling that correctly?

[Robert DeLong]

Judge Patrick Joseph Schiltz

Appointed by :George W. Bush

[jimtorr]

The leader of the attack gets a lighter sentence that his followers? I can’t see it, even if he did express remorse and shame and “has been doing all of the right things”, as the judge put it.

After rioting and helping destroy a police precinct he has been employed in security. Strange, but not unbelievable in todays USA.

[Richard Axtell]

Our son is an arson... ist. I imagine his parents are so proud of such a good person. Don’t leave him at home with a box of matches, without supervision, unless you are well insured.

[Trump20162020]

A “mistake,” what? Shut up.

[TangoLimaSierra]

Look, who among us hasn't tried to burn a few people alive?
I'm sure he's learned his lesson.

[matt04]

I’m sure he in his fellow riders will have the $12 million to pay the city back for repairs, right?

[Ikeon]

Required to pay 12 million? Lol. How is he going to do that?? The victims who sued bernie getz are still waiting on thier milliosn too.

[metmom]

Judge Schiltz described the defendant as a “good person who made a terrible mistake.” While the judge handed down a lighter sentence than prosecutors had requested under state guidelines, he denied Williams’ request for probation, citing that the defendant was a leader, “not a follower,” in the attack on the precinct.

Your personal opinion of someone should not be the basis for sentencing.

Go by the laws he broke and the danger to others lives.

[shanover]

The rule of law and civility is just about finished in this society.

[glimmerman70]

Panty waste judges. But bring in someone who was let in the Capitol building on the 6th and it’s the electric chair.

[hanamizu]

Just by appearance, I don’t think they’re going to get much of the $12 million from him. It will be interesting to judge his sentence and those who walked through the Capitol between the rope lines. Some have done 1/4 of the time before even going on trial.

[subterfuge]

Harsher than I’d have guessed.

[PapaBear3625]

Compare and contrast the treatment of this arsonist, versus people who dared to trespass in the Capitol on Jan 6.

[Paladin2]

His Mom sayz:

“He’s a Good Boy, a very Good Boy....”

[Organic Panic]

Even the judges are in on the “He dindu nuffins. He a good boy.” Pathetic. Meanwhile anyone within 10 miles of the capitol sewage complex is rotting away in a solitary confinement room sans bail for a minor trespassing misdemeanor.

democrats always protect their soldiers. This is just another example of the use of lawfare to execute warfare against us.
