Father who repeatedly raped his 12-year old daughter' only gets 60-day sentence
A judge, Judge John McKeon, who sentenced a father who repeatedly raped his 12 year old daughter to jail for only 60 days is catching all kinds of heat for his terrible judgement.
As at Thursday morning, there were about 38,000 signed petition on a Change.org petition calling for his impeachment for the 60-day sentence he gave the Glasgow, Montana father who pleaded guilty to repeatedly raping his daughter.
Part of the petition reads:
“A father repeatedly raped his 12-year old daughter.” “It’s time to start punishing the judges who let these monsters walk our streets”.During an Oct. 4 sentencing hearing, Deputy Valley County Attorney Dylan Jenson said Prosecutors had recommended a mandatory 25-year sentence, 100 years with 75 suspended, which is what state law calls for.
Rather than take the advise of the prosecuting team, Judge McKeon handed down a far lighter sentence: a 30-year suspended prison sentence, which means the man will only serve it if he fails to meet the conditions of his probation. (The Judge admits his decision in domestic-abuse case had ‘the most tragic result possible".)
