Simeon Adams

[MCgrease08]

Sister of Nathan Trapuzzano on plea deal: ?justice system didn?t work? | Fox 59

I think his sentence includes the mandatory minimum of 75% time served

Local media reporting he would have to serve 50% b/c the murder happened before the change in the law.

Potentially released at 43-ish. That is young enough to continue where he left off.

Firing squad is good with me

This piece of trash will get a second chance while his vivtims child won't ever know his father. Unbelievable.

Ah, that would be a little better, but they said on the news (WTHR) that with good behavior he could get out in about 25 years.

Great! Job security for you guys!

I will be long retired in 25 years. At least if everything goes according to plan. I feel for the officers still around if he survives prison.

nevermind

This whole thing makes me sick. Little bastage was on house arrest (a huge plus for a POS like him) and he is getting what many (everyone I know anyway) feel is a near pass on "Cold Blooded Murder"

WTF has happened to our "Justice" system

Regardless of why he is lost to society the truth remains.....he is lost.

This case just boils my blood. I kept hearing his sentence on the radio news yesterday, and each time I had to change the station out of frustration. Too bad Trapuzzano can't get his life back in 25-55 years.

Death to murderers. Why is that so hard? I don't care about rehabilitation, as recidivism rates for the executed are currently hovering around 0%. I don't care about deterrence. If you really want to deter murder, then executions should be public again. But if another criminal is deterred, then that is just a happy byproduct of justice. And that is what I do care about. Justice. What our legal system has effectively said, is that Nathan Trapuzzano's life is only worth 25-55 years of Simeon Adams' life. A decent, law-abiding father's life is not nearly as important as that of a teenage killer.

Who stalked him with all intent of ending him.

It looks like he is getting the presumptive sentence on murder, as set by our legislature. While I agree that in this case LWOP is completely deserved, Curry is probably correct that it is highly unlikely he would have gotten sentenced to it at the end of a trial. The standard for LWOPing someone that young is all but insurmountable these days.

If you are sick of the scam that is sentencing and credit time in Indiana, pick up the phone and call or write your legislators. They are the ones we elected and they are the ones who reduced a ton of serious crime sentencing ranges last year. They are the one's still clinging to the "credit time" system where every sentence is a lie on its face.

For example: Johnson County prosecutor slams "hug a thug" legislation as Gree - 13 WTHR Indianapolis

Eligible for 168 years last year, eligible for 57 this year.

At the end of the day, all the complaining the world doesn't matter unless you make those complaints know to our elected representatives.

I didn't know Nate Trapuzzano personally but our circle of friends overlapped as we attended the same church. I can say without hesitation he was a truly good man and we are lesser for having lost him. Don't forget him and don't remember him only for how he died. His life was an exceptional one and one to be celebrated.

Agreed. Once again, the buck stops with our elected government. Sadly, one would hope the Republicans would have done a better job with this. I fail to see what my vote for them has accomplished.

Agreed and not much.

They are immune to our cry's for freedom/justice.

Lol!

Unfortunately for us, Chicagonis coming to us, rather than us sending our low-lifes to Chicago.
