BILLINGS, Mont. — A former high school teacher has been released from a Montana prison after completing a 30-day sentence for rape handed down by a judge who is under fire for both the sentence and his remarks about the 14-year-old victim.

Fifty-four-year-old Stacey Rambold left the Montana State Prison on Thursday after completing his term for the 2007 rape of Cherice Moralez. Prosecutors are appealing District Judge G. Todd Baugh’s sentence, and a complaint has been filed by advocates seeking Baugh’s removal.

Rambold is on probation and must register as a sex offender.

Victim Cherice Moralez committed suicide on February 6, 2010. She shot herself in her mother’s bed just three weeks before her 17th birthday.

State prosecutors are appealing the sentence, saying Rambold should have received a minimum of two years. But barring new offenses, the former teacher will stay out of prison pending the appeal.

Wow, the PROSECUTION appeals, because the sentence is too light, and the perp stays out of jail for the appeal ? ? ?

On what planet does THAT make sense?

“How can the family permit him to live a single day in freedom?”

Where is Ellie Nessler when she’s needed? How could the family not consider hiring a hit man? Why is the judge still on the bench?

maybe a civil suit by the parents will keep him poor for 20 years AND force him into a sex offender rating too.

While what happened is horrible and can never be forgotten by the victim, we don’t know if that was what caused the suicide or something else.

Perhaps the judge should finish out the rapist’s 15 year sentence.

Ah, good to see, whether from a Montanan or historian or both.

Those days are coming back, perhaps not for this d--khead teacher, but for all of us who wish not just to survive but to be free.

Never hire a hit man. If "wet work" is required, you're better off to do it yourself. When you hire someone, you're never sure what you're getting. Might even be a cop pretending to be a hit man.

We need to end sovereign immunity either completely or reduce it to a bare essential. It’s judge made law and can be legislated away.
