Most crimes are committed by repeat offenders. Law makers decided to come down harder on those who don't learn their lesson after the first couple of felony convictions (no telling how many crimes were not caught). It winds up reducing crime by keeping the worst criminals in jail longer where they can‘t prey on innocent people. I don't have any grudge against him but that's the thinking and it is reasonable. To avoid long sentences, don't commit multiple crimes. David for discouraging predation CONSIDERING:

He should not be allowed near children in any type of organized sports since coaches should be good role models. To Lady: Since he was sentenced by Judge Lacy Collier, he is doing FEDERAL time. That means he'll have access to help with any addiction and anger problems he may have. He'll probably be eligible for the 500 hour residential drug abuse program where he'll most likely get better help than he would in a program on the streets. The federal system does NOT want these guys back, so the attempt to educate them and rehabilitate them to the greatest extent possible. For those of you who are commenting on the time he got, you have to realize he was sentenced on WEAPONS charges, and those carry a pretty stiff penalty in the federal system. His previous criminal behavior may have been used to enhance his sentence, but probably not by much. He's going where he needs to be. If he can't straighten up with all the opportunities he'll have available to him, then he needs to stay locked up for the rest of his life, because he'll never make the choice to change.

Prison is where he belongs and he got off light, 7 years is not enough. The bleeding hearts need to wake up, this is a career criminal, he has no intention of ever doing the right thing. After 7 years if he even does the whole sentence he will be right back out there to prey on someone else, maybe even one of you bleeding hearts...wake up folks, with all the bad things that are happening across this country right now, we haven't seen anything yet...prepare yourselves...

Alot of children look up to adults or people they are around. What kind of example does that set if your escorted off the field in the middle of a t-ball game. Also the ones who say " well at least he's out there coaching" if you don't want to go out and get a job then I would think you would have plenty of time for other things like the things he's done and coaching t-ball. If your a convicted felon you shouldn't even be allowed to step on a field with children of any age.
