He was sentenced to 'one year' in jail?
And basically was given a suspended sentence?
Well, it would definitely be interesting to hear details of how the judge arrived at that decision. Sounds like the parents wanted to end the ordeal quickly and with the least publicity. Perhaps their requests led to the leniency.
Of course Debra LaFave got a similar sentence.
It would seem unfair to give him fourteen years in prison when she got none.
*shrug*
