LORD...Please apply this same standard to the top officials of our Goventment that orchestrated a “coup” against a sitting President...
” was “an educated person,””
So an uneducated person deserves a stricter sentence?
Not only that, he was a MD who knew precisely where and how to hit his victim to do the most damage and carried it out by charging down a 60 yard slope to deliver a total sucker tackle that easily could have killed or crippled Senator Paul. There was just about as much malice and premeditation in that attack as there was in the shooting of Steve Scalise.
Wonder if they’re still neighbors.
Hopefully the 30 days will become at least 30 months, and in a regular prison, not a country club setting.
Ever heard of Ethan Couch?
That judge was a political pos.
If he had attacked that Clinton judge, the courts would have thrown the book at him. Thirty days was a crime.
He could have easily killed a United States Senator.
Maybe not a chiropractor, but how about a thoracic surgeon.
You are correct. In this case he used his body as a weapon and did great physical harm to Senator Paul.
This violent attacker got a slap on the wrist by a POS partisan liberal judge. She should be booted off of the bench and do all the time that she did not sentence him to.
Thought experiment:
What if a crazy rich doctor in Kentucky did this same crime to Senator Hillary Clinton, or Speaker Pelosi?
Sentence????
Prison doctors get unlimited sex. Side benefit. Correction-rear benefit.
Re: “mundane disagreement over grass clippings”
This wasn’t about “grass clippings”.
I guess he never took the oath.
Ethan Couch
Born April 11th, 1997
Known for The “affluenza” defense
Criminal charge Intoxication manslaughter
Penalty Initially 10 years’ probation.
Date June 15, 2013
Killed 4 Injured 9
Ethan Anthony Couch (born April 11, 1997) is an American man who at age 16 killed four people while driving under the influence of alcohol and drugs on June 15, 2013, in Burleson, Texas.
He was intoxicated, driving on a restricted license and speeding in a residential area when he lost control, colliding with a group of people assisting another driver with a disabled SUV.
Four people were killed in the collision and a total of nine people were injured.
Two passengers in Couch’s truck suffered serious bodily injury, one with complete paralysis.
Couch was indicted on four counts of intoxication manslaughter for recklessly driving under the influence.
In December 2013, Judge Jean Hudson Boyd sentenced Couch to ten years of probation and subsequently ordered him to therapy at a long-term in-patient facility, after his attorneys argued that the teen had “affluenza” and needed rehabilitation instead of prison, saying that he didn’t know boundaries because his rich parents didn’t give him any.
Couch’s sentence, believed by many to be incredibly lenient, set off an emotional, angry debate that has stretched far beyond the North Texas suburbs.
Couch became the subject of a manhunt and was listed in the National Fugitive Database on December 11, 2015, after his probation officer was unable to contact him.
On December 28, 2015, authorities detained Couch and his mother in the Mexican resort city of Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco. On April 13, 2016, he was sentenced to serve two years in prison.
