I see Beck’s command of the law is right up there with his knowledge of religion and theology.
Epic fail.
Ok. I know very little about the law...but isn’t this type of re-sentencing (especially lengthening the sentence) rare? And if judge no. 1 says 5 years is ‘cruel and unusual’, does judge no. 2 have to justify why it isn’t.
And even the basis of prosecution seems sketchy. The son lit a backfire, in a (successful) effort to stop a wildfire. Whatever procedural violations he may have committed, does it rise to the level of ‘terrorism’?
It sounds like targeting/selective prosecution.
