Judge caves under pressure & ups sentence to at least three years

Judge Edward Cashman said he felt he could impose the longer sentence now because the state had agreed to provide treatment to the man while he is behind bars.

Or maybe this had something to do with it:

After Cashman announced the sentence, Gov. James Douglas called for the judge to resign and several lawmakers suggested he be impeached. On Fox News, Bill O'Reilly told viewers as video of Cashman rolled: "You may be looking at the worst judge in the USA."

I wonder if Bubba was watching the news? Perhaps a taste of his own medicine will do something to persuade him of the error of his ways. Judging by the new sentence, Vermont still has a parole board, and a max of 10 years to work with. I'm not sure how it is in Vermont, but the parole board here had a tendency to deny parole at the first hearing for serious offences, and in my book, this is the most serious offence there is.

<font color=skyblue>I wonder if the judge has any children of his own...I also wonder if he sympathizes with the creep because he knows first-hand what its like to want an underage kid in his bed...

I was watching dateline the other night where they were showing their third exclusive broadcast of catching pedophiles. This time, they actually had the cops outside waiting on the freaks to come out of the sting-house, and they got taken down fast. One of the pedo-guys was an employee for the US Dept. of Homeland Security!

And by the way, the teacher that they had busted on episode one, he went back to work at the high school for six days before cops caught up with him! That is why I am glad that this new episode had the detectives and stuff right there at the moment to nab them immediately. They caught 50 men on this newest show.

One viewer wrote in and asked if no women were ever caught and the TV guy said that in three shows, not one woman was ever caught doing this internet hook-ups, and therefore women must not do this. What a foolish statement. Of course women can be pedophiles...its just that there is a smaller percentage, and they are not as stupid as to get caught so easily. Usually, they do not hook up with strangers, they are the teachers or other adults that get to know the kids more personally first.

Woah...did I go off on a tangent, or what?</font>
