Sounds like he deserves the rope. Judge Edward Cashman sentenced him to 60 days in jail. Kind of sounds like the judge might deserve the rope too. The story gives a lot of reasons for the light sentence but it's wrong. This girl is scared for life and all the Judge in concerned about is getting the offender treatment. How about the abused girl? Does she get any treatment or justice? Not with a sentence like this.<br />n<br />nOn to another one.<br />n<br />n<a href="http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20060104/us_nm/parents_dc">Parents leave kids home alone to gamble in Vegas</a><br />n<br />n<blockquote>A California couple left their 5- and 9-year-old children home alone for the weekend while they went to gamble in Las Vegas.</blockquote><br />n<br />nI'm not real sure this one deserves the noose. They don't deserve the children but the noose might be a little extreme. Maybe if we used the noose on those people that harmed children these folks wouldn't have left them like they did. I don't know for sure but it's worth a try.<br />n<br />n<b>Fairness is what justice really is. Potter Stewart </b>
