Syracuse, NY -- Onondaga County Family Court Judge Michael Hanuszczak today sentenced a 16-year-old to 18 months of confinement for the killing of a 51-year-old man.

The sentence was the maximum the judge could have handed down to the teen, who was recently found guilty of second-degree manslaughter in the beating death of Michael Daniels. The boy was 15 at the time of the incident and has maintained his innocence since his arrest at the end of May.

The judge, who is required by law to sentence a juvenile delinquent to the "least restrictive available alternative consistent with the child's needs and best interests and the need to protect the community," said he made his decision based on a variety of factors.

George Zimmerman would be dead today if he had not had a weapon and did the world a favor.

This kid will be out in 18 months and worse than when he went in.

“...a review of the boy’s school records, which showed a history of truancy and suspensions that involved threats and intimidation of his teachers”

And why, exactly, wasn’t he doing jail time for any of that?

I’m not blaming the judge in this case. He gave out as much time as the law would let him. But it seems to me this kid was already a hardened punk before he beat a man to death. Why he wasn’t tried in adult court is beyond me.

He’ll then have the “I’ve been in” swagger and a notch in his belt.

Should have given the kid public praise and monetary rewards. The original sin of whiteness was recognized and appropriately punished by this fine youth.

Actually, as others have noted, the actual sentence will do him more good in America as it now stands.

The Knock Out Game is a black thug only event. That’s what Trayvon Martin did to Zimmerman. I’m surprised it didn’t surface in the trial. He hit Zimmerman but he didn’t go down as he was supposed to. So he got on top of him to finish the job and ... the rest is topsy turvy history.

The Judge did as much as he could under Law. It's the laws that need changing.

Legislatures should have as much compassion for victims of these crimes of depravity as they do for the presumed imperfections in self-defense legislation.

I have often thought that criminals who get light sentences should be placed near those that gave them the light sentences after they get out. In this case that would be the nearest Dimacrat assemblymen to where this guy came from.

When it comes to sexual predators who get off light because of soft on crime judges they should be placed back in society very close to those judges.

One thing that was kind of glaring when we were looking for another house to get out of Milwaukee was the predator map. Every community in Milw Co. had dots all over the map. However Shorewood; where all the judges live had no dots. Connection?

If the victim has any decent family, they should see that the thug gets what’s coming to him.

The judge didn’t allow any of Martin’s background about that as testimony. A civil trial would open that floodgate which is another reason why they probably won’t have one.

Somebody once asked if Martin did do the “game” on a person then why haven’t they have come forward by now? My guess is that they’re too scared.

The Sons Of Barack kill again.

Time for concerned patriots to quietly administer some justice?

somehow i don't think 18months protects the needs of the community... i'd like to see the range of sentencing available
