He's not "helping the guy escape justice," he just has a different view of justice than you do. Unless there is some evidence of bribery or other corruption, impeachment (or possibly recall) is the only available option, and even that might be a stretch, unless he violated some law regarding minimum sentencing.
I'm not sure what the process is for removing a county judge in Montana (or if he's appointed or elected), but I doubt disagreement over sentencing is valid reason for impeachment (although it might suffice if he's subject to recall.) A previous poster says he's about to retire; if that's true, I doubt anyone will expend the energy to remove him.
Well..., I’m not sure what is reasoned in that neck of the woods, but 60 days for raping your own twelve year old daughter?
Prosecute the judge. If that isn’t a criminal act, then our judicial system is really screwed up.
Your comments sound reasoned, but this does go beyond the pale. And I don’t think this is just my opinion BTW:
Generally speaking, impeachment can be done for just about any reason.
High crimes and misdemeanors means crimes and misdemeanors in high office - period. It does not - not - mean high (as in lofty) crimes and misdemeanors (after all, a high misdemeanor would be like a towering hillock - an oxymoronic absurdity).
A misdemeanor (bad face) is by definition a small thing, and letting a serial pedophilia rapist off with virtually no time served is far, far above that low bar!
