A Courtroom Can Have Too Many Blacks

Criminal law is becoming more appealing by the day. I have always found it to be rather riveting, especially hearing the various cases on television, and now that I have a front-row seat - I can grab a bag of ACT II and enjoy the show. I watched sentencing on Friday and it was quite unreal to see how 80% of the ones being sentenced were African American. There was this guy who had molested his daughter and taught her the tricks and the trade on what it means to stimulate oneself. He received a long, long sentence and with good reason. That is an unforgiveable crime to molest anyone let alone your biological child and to videotape it too. I wonder if he was planning to sell it on EBAY. There were too many drug cases to name. The judge said at the beginning of the sentencing that "everyone was going {to the pen}, it was just a matter of how long." There was this Caucasian guy who was convicted of fraud. Apparently he had scammed Black folks into trying to get reparations for them. It was just sad to see how many Blacks there were being sentenced and how they were close to my age or the equivalent. There was this 17 yr old who was charged with murder 2. Apparently, he was driving between 90-100 mph down a main street here in the Lou and hit a 22 yr old killing him and then fled the scene. He was 14 at the time and he was up for review. He'll be up for review again @ 21. I sat in on a case regarding this woman who tortured this girl by making her drink Pine Sol and urine and slitting her ankles. She got life. This was just the first week. Next week, I'll be sitting in on this woman who put high blood pressure medicine in her son's IV at Children's Hospital. What is wrong with people? I am looking forward to learning more about criminal statutes and the criminal law lingo. But that courtroom had too many Blacks.
