The sentence
Slootie is on lucky ass bitch! For the crime of Facilitation of Mortgage Fraud through Identity Theft, Slootie was sentenced to 90 days in a half-way house on work release, 300 hours of community service, and $17K restitution to the bank. One. Lucky. Bitch.
The judge was obviously swayed by the fact that she was a single parent to children who lost their father. He said that he believed that the kids needed her, and “needed her bad”. The regular federal guidelines say a sentence of 18 months minimum. Her own sentencing report said 24-30 months. And all she got was 90 days in a half-way house.
I am really happy for the kids, really happy. But such a deviation from the sentencing guidelines seems troubling.
So, it’s going to be an interesting summer. I’m sure we’ll get the kids for a week or two, which is great! But still, I feel bad that there will be a revolving door at their house this summer and no consistent care. Slootie has friends and neighbours lined up for a week at a time. Seems like there can be a better way of doing that. But what do I know?
