ROCHESTER, N.Y. (WROC) — Shawn Jordan, a former Rochester police officer who pleaded guilty to raping a child, was sentenced to 10 years of probation and 10 jail weekends Wednesday.
Can't a minor testify remotely or by some other means? He's still facing charges in another County, but they certainly won't carry the same weight of a rape charge.This is genuine insanity. There isn't a single reason on the planet that would make this sentence acceptable.
Not one.
I world think not; they have to face each other in person. Constitutional right of the accused isn't contingent on outside factors.Can't a minor testify remotely or by some other means? He's still facing charges in another County, but they certainly won't carry the same weight of a rape charge.
"The DA’s Office added they were not satisfied with the sentencing for Jordan and hopes something like this doesn’t happen again".
Yeah me too, but the plea deal you made with this monster - makes the odds higher that it will happen again. SMDH
