The heir to the du Pont fortune pled guilty in 2009 to charges of raping his three-year old daughter, but never spent time in jail
Newly released documents reveal that in 2009 a Delaware judge sentenced a wealthy heir to probation after he admitted he had raped his 3-year old daughter, saying the rich white man would not do well in prison.
Robert H. Richards IV, one of the heirs to the du Pont fortune, admitted in June 2008 that he had raped his 3-year old daughter, Delaware Online reports. The girl told her grandmother about the 2005 alleged abuse, and said that her father had said it was our little secret but that she didnt want my daddy touching me anymore.
Richards was originally charged with two counts of second-degree rape, but accepted a last-minute plea deal on fourth-degree rape charges, a class C violent felony that usually comes with over two years of jail time.
Prosecutors sought only probation, and Judge Jan Jurden agreed, sentencing him to an 8-year prison sentence but commuting all the prison time in favor of probation.

If you watch the show The Walking Dead, they had a good solution for child rapists.
Insert the large knife at the beltline and work it up to the collar bone.
The judge was likely a pedophile himself.
Judge was a female, so likely just a brain dead liberal.
He made a lot of wise investments to the right folks.
Pretty much what I was thinking ... castrate him instead. I like your implement, though.
does the judge support homosexual marriage?
he can do house arrest so the taxpayers do not have to pay for his medical expenses but that really does not help.
Did the article mention the exact terms of the probation?
no internet?
no cell phone?
no computer?
no mansion?
I was going to say that I thought that was the whole point of going to jail, but hey it's not like his daughter suffered any serious trauma, so why should he? ( I don't really have to use the sarcasm tag, do I?)
I'll say. Even solitary wouldn't be that good a deal for him if the food is prepared by convicts.
"What's this ground glass and rat turds doing in my meatloaf?"
At least in prison, there would be Bubba therapy. After the first few times biting the pillow or grabbing his ankles, he might begin to regret what he did.
Of course, the gen pop welcoming committee might simply decide on castration or an acid bath down there.
This judge Jan Jurden is an accomplice to child rape as far as I’m concerned. Disgusting obamite.
Sick bastard, and all that money.
So much INBREEDING among the ruling class produces much INSANITY.
This is the logical explanation of the mess the country’s in.
I would love to see this happen.
If I were the mother I would find some way to make him pay. It might take me a few years to plan and execute, but I would get revenge for my daughter.
Check for “unexpected large deposits” into the judge’s bank account.
Oh, yeah. Judge and prosecutor suddenly driving new Mercedes...coincidence, I’m sure.
Was Whoopi “yeah but was it rape rape” Goldberg the judge in this case?
These kinds of judges should go to prison
