Man-hating feminist judge in Larry Nassar case crossed line. Remove & disbar

[Billy_Kinetta]

I like that judge a lot.

Well then, you're an idiot. Judges aren't supposed to act like this. THINK

She didn't take sides in the case. He was already convicted.

I admire her sentencing. I'd have gotten all Wrath-O-Gawd™ on him, myself.

 

[westwall]

Was Nassar even guilty.? Looks like he was beaten down and forced to plead guilty. The state was clearly out to get him. The media also.

The moment the judge in the Larry Nassar case crossed a line

jan 25 2o18 Many of us have watched in horror as victim after victim testified at the sentencing hearing for Larry Nassar, the doctor who pleaded guilty to molesting US gymnasts under his care. Though Nassar had admitted to molesting seven victims, Judge Rosemarie Aquilina opened the courtroom in this phase to anyone wishing to speak, including victims of Nassar who were not part of the official case.

Ultimately, there were more than 160 witnesses, including numerous Olympic athletes, who gave gut-wrenching testimony about his effect on their lives.

On Wednesday, Judge Aquilina sentenced Nassar to 40 to 175 years in prison — a sentence she assured him means he will die in prison, since it will be served subsequent to a 60-year sentence in another case for possession of child pornography. “I have signed your death warrant,” she announced.

Throughout the sentencing hearing, Aquilina was praised for her compassion towards victims, and her comments Wednesday drew further exultant commentary. But her words to Nassar should make us uncomfortable. That’s because, perhaps without realizing it, Aquilina overstepped her bounds as a judge and adopted the role of victim advocate.

She told Nassar, “It is my honor and privilege to sentence you,” and observed, at one point: “Our Constitution does not allow for cruel and unusual punishment. If it did … I would allow some or many people to do to him what he did to others.”

That is a human reaction, but it is one you’d expect to be expressed by a victim rather than a judge. (Many observers, including me, heard the “do to him what he did to others” line as a not-so-coded expression of a hope that Nassar would be raped in prison.)

Throughout the proceedings, which were televised, Aquilina essentially transformed herself into a champion for a movement. It is understandable to feel empathy for previously voiceless victims, especially ones whose testimony took such bravery. But there are crucial distinctions between judge and advocate, and she traversed those lines repeatedly.

She talked to victims as though she were their confidante, telling one, “The monster who took advantage of you is going to wither, much like the scene in The Wizard of Oz where the water gets poured on the witch and the witch withers away.”

She passionately thanked victims and called them “superheroes.”

I don't think his fellow prisoners need the judge to give them any kind of message, coded or otherwise, to see who will fill his dance card first. I figure there will be no more high pitched tones when he farts

He will spend his life in administrative segregation so he isn't killed.

The judge acted in a rather unproffesional manner. This has nothing to do with the charges brought against the defendant. Or the veracity of the claims made against him
This has to do with our justice system. And if the concept of impartiality, or blind justice goes out the window... We all lose.
PS... save the virtue signaling bullshit about, how anyone who disagrees with you is a pedophile... We've seen it in countless previous threads. And not only is it intellectually lazy. Its a weak fucking attempt to defend your support for the judges demeanor, and actions in tbe courtroom. Actions which could lead to this fucker contesting the verdict... Then how many favors will you have done these victims?

The good people at Fox News are also slamming this judge.

Judge Rosemarie Aquilina criticized for Larry Nassar sex abuse sentencing remarks

Kevin Daley is clearly looking for clicks in his opinion piece.

The sad part is the Government will pay so much money to keep him alive when they should release him to GP and let him learn what happen to those that hurt a kid or kids!

 

[saveliberty]

I thought she was awesome, remember she got to see EVERYTHING. A lot probably didn't even come out in trial. The fact she didn't just execute him on the spot was tremendous restraint.

 

[peach174]

A Judge makes sentences.
She was saying if it wasn't for the Constitution, she would have put him in a cell with all the others.
Prison's are well known that they don't tolerate child molesters.
Because of the constitution she has to sentence him to an isolated cell rather than with everyone else.

 

[depotoo]

Put it this way, it is far from the first time he has defended rapists or domestic abusers on here

The judge acted in a rather unproffesional manner. This has nothing to do with the charges brought against the defendant. Or the veracity of the claims made against him

Then howany favotlrs will you have done these victims?

 

[ShootSpeeders]

Look man there is no way you can spin it to make Nassar look innocent. The son of a bitch should be hung!

HAHAHA. "He must be guilty. The TV people told me."

You feminists are so gullible.

God, you are going to defend the guy and guess what?

He will die in Prison because he is guilty.

Also my name is Mr. Sexist Bigot to you and I still find the guy guilty. He did it and you know it but you can not admit it because you were told to be blind and believe what you read!

All i know for sure is they are gonna sue everybody and get a fortune.

 

[hjmick]

Hmmm, who knew you were a moron. Why we all did of course! The facts are that NONE of these women are going to make any money off of the prick because he had none. .

Hey einstein. They're gonna sue michigan state and the olympics and everyone else in sight. THINK

I have, they should sue those groups, they allowed a perv to abuse young girls and women. Funny how you think that speeders should be killed, but actual fucking predators you have no problem with. You are one fucked up individual.

And the perfect example of why we need the STFU button in every forum.

 

[Coyote]

Did the "victims" have any evidence other than their word??. We saw with roy moore that all whores need in america is an accusation. " He abused me and i want a million bucks."

You can’t be serious. AND he plead guilty.

Sometimes...the only response is...WTF?
