Rifle-wielding maniac was free to go on rampage thanks to sweetheart sentence
New York Post ^ | May 12, 2026 | Chris Bradford

Massachusetts prosecutors scolded a judge over the sweetheart deal she handed to serial criminal Tyler Brown — who is accused of opening fire on random drivers on Monday — after he was convicted of trying to kill a cop years earlier.

Brown, 46, pleaded guilty to armed assault with intent to murder in 2021, one year after he fired 13 rounds at Boston officers, including firing a .40 Glock semi-automatic at close range at one officer’s chest.

Prosecutors recommended a 12-year prison sentence followed by five years of probation; however, Judge Janet Sanders handed out a five- to six-year sentence with three years of probation — despite the fact that Brown was already on probation for a 2014 assault conviction at the time.

um.. he should have gotten the death penalty for the first crime, or at a miniumum life with no chance of parole.

Is it possible that a judge embraces a policy of suicidal empathy? What a pathetic nitwit.

These vile so called judges deserve a hell of a lot more than a scolding. They should be charged with aiding and abetting if anyone they release commits a serious crime.

Unfortunately it isn’t “suicidal empathy” more like “homicidal empathy”.

I doubt she was worried about her life when she let him go.

I like to call that delusional impulse “pathological compassion”.

Not a nitwit. She has an agenda and she knows exactly what she’s doing.

Don’t know how.
Don’t know when.
But some day, politicians and judges need to experience consequences for their decisions.
