Judges suck.


Guy sells crack cocaine three times near an elementary school, runs away from his trial, and skates.

A 23-year-old man found guilty of selling crack cocaine three times near an elementary school and then fled during his trial, will not serve prison time, MyFOXKC.com reported.

Aunrekki D. West was convicted of three Class A felonies — two counts of delivering a controlled substance near a school and one count of second degree drug trafficking, the Web site reported.

They carry a sentence of 10 years to life in prison on Jan. 9, according to the report.

The Platte County Prosecutor's Office asked the court to sentence him to 15 years on each count, running them consecutively for a total sentence of 45 years, but instead they gave West five years probation after serving 60 days, the station reported.

West will be ordered released on March 15, because the court gave him credit for time served.

Letting pedophiles go, letting crack dealers go...

Yeah, we got some winners in the judiciary, alright.
