Is this too light of a punishment?
By NOAKI SCHWARTZ
LONG BEACH, Calif. Feb 3, 2007 (AP)— Four of nine black teenagers convicted in the racially charged beating of three white women on Halloween were sentenced to probation Friday.
Punishment could have ranged up to confinement in a California Youth Authority lockup until age 25. The teens were ordered to serve 250 hours of community service, 60 days house arrest, and take anger management and racial tolerance programs.
The victims appeared in court earlier this week to tell the judge about the impact of the assault on their lives.
One of them suffered facial fractures in the beating, and deputy district attorney Andrea Bouas told the court she was having surgery Friday.
In her earlier victim impact statement she indicated she has psychological wounds, too.
“I’m not sure if all the emotional scars will ever completely vanish,” she said. “I feel like the beating I endured on Halloween night is still not over.”
I know, I heard that this morning on the radio, the judge should be impeached. I am certain that if the races were reversed and the whites were the perpetrators, we would have a totally opposite sentences.
