This sort of illegal alien should be repatriated by means of a giant slingshot -- send them flying back over the border at high speed to a SPLAT! landing. Little cost to taxpayers and no risk of their returning. And the bodies would serve as a stark reminder to others thinking of sneaking into our country and committing heinous crimes.
Do you want to pay to keep him in prison and then deport him after his time is up, or should he be deported now?
Put him in general lockup at San Quintin. Problem solved.
The judge is simply acting in accord with the President's sense of family values, the ones that don't stop at the border. Besides, don't forget that diversity is our strength and multiculturalism is a wonderful thing.
Recall the judge!
That's the other part I don't understand. The other offense, the first one with the 14-year-old for which he was sentenced to probation, was a misdemeanor? In Tennessee I think there's a category called "sexual battery" which, IIRC, would cover any illegal sexual contact with a minor, short of full rape. And it ain't no misdemeanor.
In the old days it was seen as appropriate if these girls' brothers would personally take this guy and, um, make a strong impression on him.
Doing the work Americans won't do.
That's a legislative concern, not a judicial concern, and an example of how judicial activists work. They elevate their own narcissistic tendencies above the law. Judges are not lawmakers. Their job is to apply the law, and nothing in the law of sentencing makes the likelihood of support or deportation a consideration.
He should have locked him up and threw away the key. Instead, he reaches for a reason to go easy on a predator who's had sex with two different young teenagers.
Too bad the DA only verbally lambasted the judge, rather than actually blasting him.
I HATE misleading headlines.
Well, I'm not in a position where I want to have to pay taxes for the next five or six years to pay the salary of incompetent, activist judges.
I added the judge to keywords so when it's election time folks can find this case and vote appropriately.
Raping children that Americans won't rape...
Seriously, we need to revist prison sentances that include the words, "At Hard Labor."

Retiring this judge would save taxpayer money.
We also know that if he comes out of prison *intact* he will continue to prey on underage girls. Who wants to be his next rape victim? Does the judge have any daughters, nieces, cousins he'd like to offer up for the gig?
The only way I can understand a judge doing something like this is to consider the fact that he doesn't have one iota of concern for the future victims of the perps he runs so quickly through his courtroom mill.
