(actually, he was charged with hiring minors and found not guilty, but since you're following the case so closely you obviously know that)So in other words it's like I said initially, you're saying he "deserves a long sentence" for the bank charges he was convicted of because of allegations of wrongdoings for which he was either not charged or found not guilty.
I know, what could he possibly have been thinking? every other Slaughterhouse and meatpacking plant in the US employs only US citizens, how could Rubashkin possibly think he'd get away with it??
Right, so because he "did the crime" that would normally get a slap on the wrist he should sit in jail for "a long time"
1. He can be "guilty" and still be a victim here. Whether he's a victim of an overzealous prosecutor, anti-semitism, biased-judge, special interests (e.g. PETA, the unions) whatever, take your pick (all of the above?) bottom line is he does not appear to have gotten a fair shake...
2. You're right, that's exactly the point. If you compare him to the sentences in similar cases he should've been out by now.
1- FWIW I believe The Spinker Rebbe is where he belongs as well and he isnt a Lubob.
2- the Big diffrence between SR and the others is the others pleaded Guilty and thusly got less time to be served. The Sprinker also pleaded Guilty and thusly got off lightly I think 18 months
I dont believe you can thusly compare anyone who pleaded guilty to 1 who pleaded not guilty, come back where others in teh same sit pleaded not guilty and got only a slap on their wrist
I have no problems with SR getting a new trail if thats what either the Appeals or Supreme Court finds , but he wont beable to plead Guilty and will be retried based on his being Not Guilty. But will CH say if both of those Courts stay the Sentence that was handed down
that both of those Courts are anti-semites as well as everyone out in Iowa? truth is both courts I believe can decide not to even hear teh case and let teh sentence stand as is.
My gut tells me that unless SR is set free that CH will simply keep saying hes been Wronged.
If I get a moving violation (tkt) from a cop and I fight it in court, then the amount of $$ due is thrown out and the Judge has every right to set whatever amount they feel is correct. so pleading Guilty and paying might mean say 3 pts and $125 fine , going to court can mean in the end 3 pts and any amount in fines, its usually a min of 10% more if teh judge feels you had a god story but no proof and didnt prove you werent guilty. Carry on and let stupid things come out of your mouth and be prepared for a very expensive fine amount.
we can go back and forth in the end the real reason they went full steam after him still isnt fully known. You can say what you want Prove it
lastly I know a number of Rabbis that feel Weinstein should be set free since he gave so much $$$ to Yeshivas and different Frum organizations they feel hes a Zadick. They refuse to accept that the $$ he gave away was stolen from other Frum Jews and say well he didnt have to give any of it away, but he did and thusly we should work on getting him freed,after all he did for the community.I say he should ROT after all he did TO the community
what SR did was against the law, he gambled and lost and instead of agreeing to a plea agreement took his chances on walking away free. He Lost , there is an appeals process in this Country and he should go down that road and hope for the best, but for the time being hes where he belongs
