People in positions of power often abuse it to favour themselves and their relatives.

I wonder what the author's devious (and probably idiotic) plan is.

Finally we have gotten lenient with our drug laws in this country. Thanks goodness.

If you think you have equal rights in this country, you are very naive. If you got money in this country then you are a little more equal than others.

CURSE YOU, TsukasaK!

Sorry... how much ecstacy?

Welcome to life. It's who you know...sometimes who you blow.


/and sometimes both.

It's good to be the king judge's son.

I hate to point this out but it's not up to the judge, it's up to the prosecutor. It's the prosecutor who accepted this deal which probably resulted in another arrest of somebody further up the food chain of drugs.

FTA:1 gallon bag containing marijuana

Was this kid transporting liquid weed or something?

Fine with me... I just wish everyone got off so light.

I'm sorry but since when is favoritism news? If this were a prominent politican's son, the result would be the same.

status quo

boys will be boys

WTF?

*outrage*

*resumes watching Discovery Channel*

I'm glad he isn't in jail. My only complaint is that other people caught with drugs are put in jail. Jails aren't the proper place for non-violent drug offenders.

Hell we let every corner liquor store have 4000 gallons of beer, 1000 litres of Jack Daniels, 1400 liters of Jim Beam, 100 litres of grain alcohol, and on and on an on.

The alcohol abuse kills more people in Alabama than all the illegal drugs have killed in the entire world.

Hunter S Thompson was a pussy, but not as big a pussy as Johnny Depp pretending to be hardcore.

Jesus what a farking travesty.

Anybody who liked that movie is a douchebag or a pussy
As for this cocksucker getting off on these charges-

like the chief says, everybody should get off that light
drugs should be legal

because even though they DESTROYED my life
OTHER DRUGS saved my life.

ALL OF THEM ILLEGAL.

1. Two baggies, envelope, one vial, crack cocaine, powder cocaine Total: 32 grams (1 ounce give or take)
2. 1 gallon bag containing marijuana
3. 5 sandwich baggies containing marijuana. 4 were corners of bags packaged for resale.
4. 1100 Extacy pills in 11 baggies
5. 2 straws, 2 rolled up dollar bills and two pipes.
6. 26 Xanax pills

On an ethical level, those are all I really care about. The rest should be legal.

Don't hold back. Tell us how you REALLY feel.

bberg: I hate to point this out but it's not up to the judge...

I hate to point this out but nobody is blaming the presiding judge. They're blaming the system for favoring the powerful and their relatives over others.

If the guy had been the son of a laid-off black Birmingham steel worker instead of son of the Chief Judge of the 40th judicial circuit, he would probably be in jail right now.

Two sets of laws, one for the 'right people,' and one for the rest of us. As Gerry Spence says, "Little people are entitled to little justice."

But you know, I'm sure this boy's father would say that this is a time to look forward, not backward. We can't undo what's been done, so it would be pointless and divisive to attempt to assign blame. We need to move on to more productive things, lest we become distracted by the past.

Just like we should move on from afganistan, and the iraq war!

.....9/11

the_chief: Fine with me... I just wish everyone got off so light.

this.

Wow, a tale of nepotism in government from the south. You don't say. The judge probably buggered his son when he was younger too.

Sounds like her secret plan mentioned at the bottom of the article has already reached stage 1: get headline on Fark.

LEGALIZE IT!!

Someone please post an email link so we can write this lowlife scum and let him know exactly what we think... or at least someone he reports too......

Heh.

This little douchebag will end up under a bridge within a year, and nothing Judge Daddy will do can get him out.

/Dead or alive, your pick.

Our local power broker's son got nailed distributing meth with a whole bunch of people. Guess who got rehab and guess who got to go to prison. The son is a complete waste of space, rich beyond reason, and totally worthless.

It happens all the time.

haha

i LOVE you, mans!!


/injects air bubble
//haha suckers it doesn't really kill you
///sorry

I guess we know her plan now.

"I am about to file an FOIA for other court records to show how out of line the sentence is. Also to show how often Judge Rochester sent others to prison for far lesser offenses."

whole thing is probably made up BS

Another link.

3horn: Unfarkingbelievable.

The X alone should have had him in prison for years.

And who the hell could even conceive that all of these were for "personal use"? Does this jackass buy all of his drugs for the next decade at one time?

3Horn

Eh, even if it's just a 'high all weekend, every weekend' thing, that can be 20-30 pills a week, x52 is 1040-1560 a year, could easily be only a year's planning. Assuming you're monstrously addicted and high every day, all day, you'll run out faster.

But yeah, that's a 'conceivably' thing, most likely this was trafficking, or scoring so big that trafficking was imminent regardless of original intent.

What are the chances that the son is white? 110%?

finally some common sense.

When did we make Alabama a province?

/curious Canadian

I don't know what to say.
I lose faith in this country
Every single day.
Every man in power;
his soul is utterly sour.fark it. fark everyone. fark everything.

/like that?

Shoot, a fella' could have a pretty good weekend in Vegas with all that stuff.

bberg: I hate to point this out but it's not up to the judge, it's up to the prosecutor. It's the prosecutor who accepted this deal which probably resulted in another arrest of somebody further up the food chain of drugs.

And I hate to point this out, but it's also this same prosecutor who'll be appearing in front of this same judge for the foreseeable future. In a tense enviornment where a decision could go either way, it'd sure be nice to have the judge "owe you one."
