[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The CA asked for the max sentence, and the judge did not grant it!  That means the judge (who is not Parisa) saw evidence that this child did not need to punished the full extent of the law.

Is this story still incredibly tragic for the Meade family? Yes.  His loss is simply awful.  And I am sorry they felt they weren't heard.  But it seems like there's mostly rumors etc about the teen driver, when the judge's job is to look at FACTS and make a decision.[/quote]

Someone in an earlier post said that the judge himself appeared frustrated with the CA for giving him the limitation of a juvenile sentence. And that his rationale for one year followed by probation was that the kid had a better chance of not harming others if he was meeting regularly with the judge and getting help for his substance and mental health issues. I hope I got that right - I was not there, but it seemed like the earlier poster was and would likely be able to explain it. I didn't interpret it as the judge thinking it wasn't a very serious crime.[/quote]
