Music mogul Suge Knight was sentenced to 28 years in prison for running over and killing a man in a dispute about "Straight Outta Compton" after pleading no contest to manslaughter charges.Suge Knight sentenced to 28 years in prison after pleading guilty to murder


FFS! All this time in jail and plead no contest? He seems to be broke already?
With time served already 3.5 years and good time served if does. He may only have 8 years more to go?

FYI: Knight was previously sentenced to nine years in prison in 1997 after violating his probation stemming from an earlier assault charge. After being granted early release in 2001, he was sent back to prison in 2003 after assaulting a parking attendant.

Why is this not falling under the 3 strikes rule? Getting life (LOP)?

Don't matter. Life don't mean life. Read up on it. A lot of violent criminals pass through a revolving door because of laws passed by liberals.

Didn’t this guy, and his henchmen Dangle Vanilla Ice off a balcony till he signed over “Ice, Ice, Baby” rights...?

He is a repeat violent criminal.

Keep him locked up in the interest of public safety. ....

No one should be locked up longer than 15-20 years max. If they’re so dangerous, and/or their crime so egregious that 15-20 years in prison won’t earn them societal forgiveness; they should be executed.

Agree but their are and have been mitigations. The Green river killer was finally caught after almost twenty years. Some estimates put his victim toll at over 70. He was finally caught because his DNA was matched to that of DNA found on a dead body. 4 actually. He was charged with 4 murders and every one on the green river task force wanted him to get the death penalty. Then they found 3 more DNA matches on three more bodies and he was charged with those as well.

Try as they might they could not match him to any more bodies, it had just been too long and Ridgway wasn't talking. But he was terrified of dying. His team of lawyers approached the prosecutors with a deal; Don't seek the death penalty and he'll tell you where all the rest of the bodies are. The DA discussed this with his team and the families of the victims and weighed it all against what would most certainly be a long drawn out trial with appeals, and with Ridgway already in his 50's they thought he may actually die before he could be held accountable.

So the DA's office decided not to go for the death penalty for humanitarian reasons. Not to be humane to Ridgway because they all knew that sick twisted bastard deserved to die! No, humane for the relatives of the victims of the other 40 to 70 families who were still waiting for the slim chance that their daughters would come home! At the sentencing Ridgway had to face the families of all his victims and many of them told him that they hoped some convict beat him to death in prison. Better than what he deserved. Personally I see him beat almost to death and then gut shot and bleed out. He was a true monster!

Oddly enough his pistol license was also revoked.

While I get what you’re saying... The plea deal only brings comfort to the scant few, at the cost of society as a whole. The criminal justice system is designed for society as a whole. Not the few who are affected by the crime within it. That’s why fathers aren’t allowed to beat the rapists of their daughters to death. While gratifying as a father... that would be revenge. Not Justice.
The medical, and incarceration fees of the killer you referenced fall on th public as a whole, and not just the victim.
