GUILTY FL - Boy in a Box abuse trial - Parents, Timothy & Tracy Ferriter Arrested, Jupiter, Feb 2022

[Weki]

Now I’m getting nervous with this judge. Is he going to be lenient? It seems like he’s inclined to consider that the defendant was just a harried parent.

 

[Chelly]

Judge is bending over backwards to be fair to both prosecutor and defense pointing them in the direction of how to state their cases. I have no patience with the defense.

I believe Tim Ferriter is addicted to child physical abuse and will abuse again when he gets out of jail. He needs to be incarcerated minimum of 20 + years

I think this is one of the cases I heard her (Coakley) cite

State v. Kunkemoeller, 333 So. 3d 335 | Casetext Search + Citator

Read State v. Kunkemoeller, 333 So. 3d 335, see flags on bad law, and search Casetext’s comprehensive legal database

The first determination is whether a trial court can impose a downward departure sentence based on a valid legal ground proven by a preponderance of the evidence. Id. Next, the trial court decides whether it should impose a downward departure sentence based on the totality of the circumstances. Id.at 1068.

Judge has needlessly prolonged this hearing through pointless argument with counsel. He should already know what he’s going to do. He knows the law and the facts. JMO

It wasn't just child abuse, it was @#@!@ torture

Abuse, physical, mental, emotional, torture, manipulation, and enslavement!

I have to hope it's a part of a longer game plan. Dotting every "i", crossing every "t" but it is getting questionable now whether he'll let him off light. I figured 6-10. If he gives him 6 months or less I would not consider that justice. This man has been in custody for a month already and has expressed no remorse. He's not changing.

State recommends 15 years. Sounds about right! Maximum allowed is 40 years.

I’m watching on court tv now and the prosecution is questioning Tracy’s mom and the mom is UNREAL! No wonder Tracy is the way she is!

But this is the first time he's really been able to talk. He looked kind of upset during the video of the box room.

This case deserved more experienced defense and prosecuting attorneys. moo

And, if he splits that baby it would be 7 years give or take.

After hearing the children’s stmts, I was hoping at least 20 years.

Does the woman realize her daughter is up next? She'd be better off zipping it imo

 

[Weki]

I’m gonna predict judge will give him 10 years. It sounds like the pre sentence investigation recommends 74 months (6 years) so that may influence the judge.

 

[Jurisprudence]

Testimony of a priest on a matter such as this BOGGLES THE MIND.

Defense is attempting to convince judge that Ferriter made a mistake. This man tortured one child for years. He emotionally abused his other children as well. A mistake is grabbing a bottle of Pepsi when you intended to buy a Coke. This guy made no mistake. He is a chronic child abuser and will abuse again when released from jail.

IMO This prosecuting attorney is both extremely experienced and very skilled.
