Hate to say it, BUT unless there is way more to this than we are seeing, it appears that the charges and penalty were racially based(pressured) and would likely have had a totally different outcome two or three years ago. I know there will be flack for saying this but I bet the same thought has occurred to others that have been following this incident. How many really believe that if she was black or he was white that this would have still gone to criminal court with charges? Its very unfortunate this seems to be the trend today. Motivation and intent that is not there, but based on some implied bias. Just my opinion. But, I was not there and I was not an observer of the trial, so there may be more to it that totally nullifies my opinion.
