Judge Ignores Jury, Sets Child Rapist Free
Posted on March 23, 2006
Lost In Lima Ohio tells us about this sad story. Yet another judge lets a child rapist go unpunished.
Members of a Pawnee County jury are upset a judge gave a suspended sentence to a man convicted of raping a 13-year-old girl. The jury had recommended a 30-year prison sentence.
One upset juror drove to the Pawnee County Courthouse and returned a check for $167.90 he received for serving on the jury.
“They didn’t know what to do with it,” said Bruce Funkhouser.
“Justice was not served by this at all,” Funkhouser said. “I was just shocked. The judge let him go with a slap on the wrist.”
