"ATLANTA (AP) - Baltimore Ravens running back Jamal Lewis pleaded guilty Thursday to using a cell phone to try to set up a drug deal and will be sentenced to four months in prison, to be served after the regular season ends in January. "

he could have served up to 10 years. most people as their first offense would have to serve a small portion of that, but come on, only 4 months??!!!!

lock the fucker up and make an example of him!

why do the rich always get away with shit, while they fill prisons with people who cant afford decent lawyers

:warning

Yet some poor Mexican busted with a half OZ of pot at the border goes in for years. If that same Mexican fucks a white girl in a hotel room and she calls it rape, he does 15 years. The US justice system isn't as bad as Canada's but it's still pretty fucked up.

It's the same in every western country Mr Izzz - if you have the dollars to hire a good mouthpiece you can talk your way out of almost anything.

fellas i agree with ya, i know that this is how its always been, and it will always be this way, but for some reason this really pissed me off tonight.

If you just now found out there's 2 different legal systems in this country, you've been sheltered

:1orglaugh

But I gotta say, if that was some random guy, he probably would have gotten the 10 years.

I think the answer is in the question..

cuss he took the plea bargain, they couldn't have had a very strong case if they only hit him with that. prosecutors would use a case like this to build their rep.
