LINK Judge ‘Prayed’ About It and Decided That Prison Time for Admitted Rapist of Teen Girls ‘Isn’t Appropriate’
(It makes one wonder what the judge did in his own teen years)
A New York man who admittedly raped and sexually assaulted four teenage girls when he was a teen was given probation on Tuesday by a judge. The judge said he “prayed” about the sentence and concluded prison time “isn’t appropriate.”
Christopher J. Belter, 20, pleaded guilty to charges of rape, sexual abuse and sexual assault. The defendant was facing a potential sentence of eight years in an Empire State prison. Belter was previously denied youthful offender status by the court for the crimes that occurred years ago–when he was 16 and 17 years old.

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.I saw this on the news tonight! The justice system in this country is completely broken. The judge in the Rittenhouse trial was a complete mess. It will be interesting to see how the outcome in the Ahmaud Arbery trial turns out.

Rape is just not considered a life-impacting crime in a male dominated society. That's why we should have always retooled for balance by recognizing females as full citizens with equal rights but noooo. Not in "The land of the free and home of the brave." Now females will dominate and males will get what we deserve; discriminated against. The male children of today thank all of us very clever adults.
