Fact Pattern #1 Tom Rogers is a career criminal, who got his second offense for armed robbery. He robbed an 80 year old widow in the Kroger parking lot. The Fayette County District Attorney wants the maximum sentence, but the public defender is asking for mercy since Tom’s elderly mother is sick and needs him to care for her at home. Being that I am the Judge, I will give Mr. Rogers the maximum sentence for his second offense for armed robbery. The maximum sentence will be twenty years of imprisonment3, without parole or probation. I chose the maximum because this is not the defendant first offense of armed robbery. Also because he robbed an eighty year old widow. Yes, I understand that is his mother is sick and needs him to take care of her, but he is unstable to take care of his mother. The defendant mother can be taken to a nursing home, where she can get a trained licensed nurse to give her quality care. The nurses at the nursing home is more stable and equipped to take care of the defendant mother, then he is capable of doing himself. I chose this punishment for the defendant, because he is a known robber, who will more than likely continue to rob if he is not stopped.
Fact Pattern #2 John Smith fell at work and hurt his back. He was prescribed OxyContin for the pain. John got hooked on the pills, so he started buying extra off the streets. He eventually got caught and is charged with possession. Being that I am the District Attorney, I will first see if the fall
Upon arrest the defendant struck police officer T. Chur. Officer Chur sustained a broken nose and bruises on his face. We would like to ask the court for the maximum sentence on the charge of assault on a police officer. Officer Chur could have sustained more injuries that could have put him out on disability and lessened his income to support his family. The prosecution hopes that the judge will take these recommendations into consideration when sentencing the defendant. The people feel that the crimes committed will best be sentenced at the maximum sentence of the death penalty because it appears that the defendant had no regard for the life of Ms. Opee and being that he is a repeat offender, this may not be his last murder. We do not want him out on the street where he is likely to hurt or kill someone else.
This sentence, which was given by Judge Megan Latham, has its fairness for the larceny and grievous
He said he uses methamphetamine and heroin everyday and has used methamphetamine and heroin this morning before he overdosed. I questioned SMITH about the hypodermic needles and heroin bags (glassine bags) inside the vehicle. He related the paraphernalia (a used and uncapped hypodermic syringes, glassine baggies, burnt spoon, lighter and cotton) and drugs are his. He said the glassine bags contained heroin and that he purchased them. His arms were covered with scars and scabs from frequent use of a hypodermic needle for the purpose of injecting the drugs. He said that his method of choice when using heroin and methamphetamine is by injecting the drug with a hypodermic
On March 2nd, 2017, Donshavius Lampkin was found to be in possession of two bags (saran wrap formed into baggies) of prescription drugs and two bullets. The items were found in the students’ pockets during the search process. Donshavius Lampkin declined to write a statement. However, he told Dr. Lanier that he found the items and then told the SRO’s that he knew where the gun was located.

Two units were sent to the location only to find that there was no gun at that location. There was no arrest from CMPD on the pills that were found on the student. The school did suspend Donshavius Lampkin for 10 days and will
Purdue Pharmacy is the company that is responsible for producing Oxycontin. It has a very complicated background, including the effort that was made to sell it, as well as neglecting to tell the public how addictive Oxycontin truly was. There are numerous actors involved in this case, who are guilty in committing crime. After careful research we have decided that the Oxycontin case is a Corporate Crime, as well as an Implicit Act of Commision, which will be explained in more detail below. Oxycontin is a drug that is still on the market and affecting millions of people today, which is why we want to highlight how Purdue Pharmacy is participating in crime. Before we can discuss the crimes involved, we have to begin with the background of

3. Dudley and Stephen will be charged with first-degree murder. Their punishment should be 20-30 years or life in prison. The murder of Brooks was no accident because it was premeditated. Despite the malnutrition as a factor Brooks was still sane and refused to be eaten but the other two ignored this without a second thought. By convicting Dudley and Stephen it will show that the law of the country is absolute. It will also decrease the chances of someone appealing because "They were mentally ill during the time of the killing."
I am writing this statement with high hopes that serious consideration will be taken in the clemency recommendation of Daulfus Barnes case number 2010008051001D. From my understanding Daulfus my biological father, the man who physically and mentally violated me as a child is asking for mercy or a reduction of time in regards to the sentence that he received just a few years ago. I am not sure if the board is aware of the specifics of the case, however I would like to share how what he has done has impacted me and why the time he was sentenced to should stand. When I was about twelve years old Daulfus did some horrible and horrific things to me and also me do some of the same kind of things back to him that will stick
