Question Details Asked By Asked On
something that concerns me darkstar 08/12/04
    in my area recently two crimes have been in the news.

    the first one was in the paper last week about a man with a wife and 3 small children living in an upper class small town..... background ----> this man was also a working tax paying citizen. he also had a secret life. in a room in his home hidden from the public eye, he was growing around 300 marijuana plants when a family "friend" truned him in on a grudge between his wife and another woman. a few weeks later there was a knock at his door and when he opened it his home was raided.

    it was reported in the paper a couple days ago he now faces up to 80 years in prison. and has had his family torn apart for the rest of their lives.

    the other crime that was recently reported was of a man in an ajoining town bigger and more middle class than upper class. this man reportedly got mad at his girl friend and then murdered her and he is facing a possible sentence of 8 years to life if convicted.

    my question is....am i the only one that wonders where is the justice in this? how can a man do something in the privacy of his own home and bother no one be sentenced to 80 years and one who has actually taken a life only be sentenced to 8? i just don't get it!, respectfully darkstar
