Just a slap on the hand for these two considering the extent of the crimes. Wouldn't want to stay at that hotel that hired one of them.

At least he's got a job and appears to be trying to turn his life around.

These are armed, serial violent criminals, not kiddie shoplifters. The sentence reduction listed in the article is, imho, inappropriate. An apprenticeship or course of study is 4 years, they just learned the cost of being a criminal is far less; and they didn't have to offer any restitution of items and money stolen. So, in their case, they seem to have learned that crime does pay.

@Kennys - prayers? For whom? The shopowners who were threatened with deadly violence and whose livelihood was stolen, or for the perps, those poor lost souls whose troubled past forced them to rob repeatedly?

You are much more forgiving for such criminal deviants. Glad you're not part of the justice system.

All right, sounds like time to end this one.
