[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is very heartbreaking.  I feel badly for all involved.  Obviously this boy has some deep seated problems.  His poor parents.  I hope he gets help, and I hope that no one dies or is harmed because of his drug dealing.  I also hope that the boy who bought the drugs gets help.  This whole situation is truly sad.[/quote]

At 19, the dealer was not a 'boy', he was an adult, and he should go to jail for a long enough time to understand that actions have consequences. And I, for one, don't feel badly for 'all involved', since those 'boys' knew exactly what they were doing. Ugh.[/quote]

He's looking at up to 34 years in jail per the article.  Crazy.  Those kinds of sentences should be for dangerous drugs like heroin, meth, crack etc.[/quote]
omg.. you people in your white bubble.  I just can't.  You must've thought that the ex Stanford swimmer rapist was treated unfairly, too.  Two months was just too much, right?   :roll: [/quote]

You think 34 years for selling Xanax is appropriate?  Just checking. [/quote]

Just for grins, I left my "white bubble" and looked at drug sentencing in DC.

https://sentencing.umn.edu/sites/sentencing.umn.edu/files/2010_d.c._issue_paper_2_felony_drug_sentences.pdf

95% is for cocaine, heroin or PCP.
40% got paroled, 15% got split sentences and 45% got jail time.
For those that got hail time, the mean sentence length was 9 months.

But thinking that the possibility of 34 years in prison for selling 24 Xanax pills is extreme clearly indicates that I'm living in a white bubble.
