Heather Heyer's mother Susan Bro said she feels James Fields life plus 419 year sentence will send message to other white supremacists that it's unacceptable in Charlottesville and elsewhere.pic.twitter.com/LfD4Tgtk2q
Judge said James Alex Fields will be able to ask for geriatric release when he turns 60. Tells Fields "I don't know you'll ever be released, but I can't say it's not possible."pic.twitter.com/tsdK70ZFnM
As a Canadian, I have a difficult time understanding these sentences. They seem redundant. Why not simply a life sentence with no chance of parole? I ask honestly with no political agenda.
It is because he was charged and convicted for multiple crimes. The Life w/o parole is the sentence for the 1st degree murder charge; but he was also convicted of numerous other charges with penalties totaling an additional 419 years.
Throw. Away. The. Key.
Do they not have death penalty? Cuz that would send a better message.
He pled guilty in exchange for no death penalty.
Hey Donald. I don’t remember. Was he one of the good ones or bad ones?
@realDonaldTrump wanna comment? @POTUS ? @VP @WhiteHouse @FLOTUS ?
