    Is that DA on drugs? WTF? Since when is murder a crime that deserves probation? Thank goodness for a judge that is strong enough to reject such an idiotic deal. The country needs more judges like him.

    Nice to see a Judge stop the revolving door with people who reoffend.

    Black defender, Native defendant….Whitey is already serving 22 years….why does this smell "progressive?"

    Good for the judge who still looks at the crime and considers the victims in these cases.
    I feel he will be kicking back a lot of plea deals as it seems the Public Defenders office are Leftists who only seek to adjudicate 240 years of "white male hierarchical dominance."

    How much worse off can you be after time in jail for committing a murder. He will always be a murderer if not paying for his evil deeds.

    This county's office should be ashamed and good for the judge. These people representing justice should sit down and get out of office.

    What's worse than premeditated murder? How could that perp come out worse? He deserves 50 years in prison.

    Don't do the crime if you're not prepared to do the time.

    At the end of the day, a family is without a beloved family member.

    At least, this judge stood up because the sentence was absurd, to say the less. One defendant gets 22 years to life and the other gets tap on the wrist for the murder of an individual.

    It all boils down to this. The DA, ANY DA, wants a conviction on their resume. I live in a red state, and pleas from felonies are usually pled down to misdemeanors on a regular basis. It all depends upon the size of the person charged bank account. The larger the amount, the lower the crime becomes. In today's society, a person gets all the justice their money can, and does buy. There's JUSTICE, and their's JUST US. If you don't think it's true, look to New York to see what money gets you. That's a classic example if there ever was one.

    This case begs for a jury trial. Most defense lawyers always claim their clients will be worst off if they serve prison time. Waoo!!! Accused murderers? What a horrible excuse for criminals.

    The liberals are going to throw temper tantrums and go after this judge now because he wasn't soft on crime and didn't accept the plea deal. THANK GOD this judge has common sense and does his job.

    Maybe I missed it, but I heard no expression of remorse for his crime or any appreciation of the magnitude of the harm he did to this man and his family. This wasn't a hard decision. What made this a rare exception to the regular practice of accepting pleas was the prosecutor's unwillingness to treat this as a crime instead of an opportunity to engage in social engineering while paying little or no regard to the victim, his family, and the public safety.

    He'll come out worse???

    Excuse me but he was involved in a murder, how can it get any worse than that?

    To me, in my opinion, the DA is saying murder is nothing. That is offensive. I applaud the judge here.

    Moryarti statwd that he would be worse if he is relased if he goes to adult prison. He assisted in murdering someone. He has had treatment in the past and only now cause he cant escape the facility he has some what participated to what equals to 4 months out of 4 years worth of incarceration durnig the 4 years he has still shown violent behavior. Yes he needs treatment and counseling, this should be offered during a 22 year incarcerated stay in prison

    With all due respect to the Hennepin County attorney spokesperson, he should’ve thought about that before willingly getting involved in a car jacking which ended an innocent life in the first place.

    I like that judge from what he said about his experience but I am left wondering if the judge will get into trouble. In the American system can the judge get into trouble?
