There's a lot of people currently in jail for longer just because they possessed the leaves of a plant.

He's got money and is connected. He won't serve more than 2 years

[–] BigDanishGuy@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 months ago

Which will be a year with time served. Down to 6 months before work release. 6 months which will be served in a minimum security ~~celebrity resort~~ rehabilitation farm.

Feels like I've wasted all this time not doing drugs, exploiting models and forcing people to rape eachother. I've been such a sucker...

So anyway, anybody here want to party? I have already ordered oil and bulls for 50 people.

[–] Eezyville@sh.itjust.works 12 points 2 months ago

Keep in mind that 1) he gets time served from the time he spent in jail, 2) if he's a good boy he'll do 85% of his time, 3) he could get into the RDAP program and get a year off. Not a bad deal.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 8 points 2 months ago

They waited til the news was distracted so they don't have to give him a harsher sentence

[–] answersplease77@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

including time served. he is out in 3. joke sentence

[–] Yawweee877h444@lemmy.world 82 points 2 months ago

If he was poor, he'd have got 50 years.

[–] Substance_P@lemmy.world 74 points 2 months ago (4 children)

Such a broken system. Four years and change is a weak ass slap on the wrist for all the depraved bullshit he did.

[–] Veedem@lemmy.world 42 points 2 months ago (1 children)

He didn’t get convicted on much of it, though. It’s a flawed system and a poor person would have been locked away forever.

Bullshit their are pedophiles running free and you elected one of these criminals for president. The entire system is one pathetic hypocritical joke.

Trying to make it like it’s a long time. That’s four years, that’s nothing.

[–] beejboytyson@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

All they really got is pimping and beating Cassie ass. Technically.

[–] MuskyMelon@lemmy.world 25 points 2 months ago

50 months of freaking off in jail is too light

[–] ramenshaman@lemmy.world 18 points 2 months ago

I read the title as 50 years and thought "he's 55 so I guess that's enough", then I read the comments. WTF.

[–] desmosthenes@lemmy.world 17 points 2 months ago

slap on the baby oiled wrist

2% reduced fat months

[–] heyWhatsay@slrpnk.net 13 points 2 months ago

Months? Should have been years

[–] snooggums@piefed.world 12 points 2 months ago

Not long enough.

[–] maxxadrenaline@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

We need to do more for people with weaker crimes and unfair sentences. We should audit everyone’s sentences routinely and shut down for profits.

And 40 percent of incarcerated shouldn’t be in prison. They need mental help.

[–] aeternum@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I don't think that drug possession should be a crime. They're addicted to a substance. Jail isn't gonna help. Sure, they MIGHT get clean for a short while, while in prison, but then when they come out, they wouldn't have dealt with their issues. They need support, not fucking prison.

Should have been 1 day of jail for every 1 bottle of baby oil he spilt.

[–] OhStopYellingAtMe@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

That’s it?!

[–] betanumerus@lemmy.ca 8 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

every move he makes, they'll be watching him

[–] Trill88@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Can’t stop, won’t stop! Take dat, take dat! Ain’t no party like a Diddy shower party!

[–] Mynameisallen@lemmy.zip 7 points 2 months ago (4 children)

Think he makes it out alive?

[–] snooggums@piefed.world 27 points 2 months ago

Absolutely. He is too famous and doesn't have powerful enemies. His prison stay will be cushy and he won't serve the whole time from a cell.

He should have a far longer sentence.

[–] Witchfire@lemmy.world 16 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Probably gonna get a pardon

[–] FilthyHands@sh.itjust.works 17 points 2 months ago (1 children)

He's going to be the event coordinator for the WH ballroom.
