Judges Sentence Juvies to Jail for Kickbacks

This makes me sick.

Read it. Make sure you have a bucket handy -- you'll be sick, too!

I hope these two judges spend a month of time in real jail (not white collar jail) for every month they sentenced these kids for. If it is for the rest of their lives, well, they've made their bed, let them sleep in it with their new prison boyfriends. What a couple of motherfuckers!

This is an example of two people who should get double what they dished out. They should be ruined in every and any sense.

Outrage? Yeah, I got it.

What's even worse? They sentenced some 5,000 kids during the past 6 years, and some of them no doubt deserved it, but now they'll all be cleared of any wrong doing. Talk about getting off on a technicality!

From the article: "If the court agrees to the plea agreement, both judges will serve 87 months in federal prison and resign from the bench and bar. They are expected to be sentenced in the next several months. Lawyers for both men declined to comment."

Declined to comment? I bet those lawyers are as disgusted as I am... 7 years, 3 months in jail. That's a start. Loose their pensions, too? Better. What else?

Do you smell that? You do? That's the smell of 5,000 lawsuits!

Now -- if you're an unschooling family, and you find yourself in front a juvie judge... well, make sure you have legal counsel!!
