An open letter to those that sit on "the bench".
Dear Judges,
On behalf of those that voted you into office with the expectation that you would do what you were put there to do, I would like to make a few simple requests.
If you can not, in good faith force yourself to abide by the guidelines of the laws put into place by the legislators of the state in which you occupy the position of judge when it comes to sentencing those convicted of heinous crimes in a manner which is both appropriate and necessary- please have the decency to remove your robe and find a new occupation.
If you can not in good faith respect the voters who put you into office under the belief that you will honorably fulfill your position, and acknowledge the difference between one accused of a crime, and one convicted of a crime, and hand out justice accordingly- please have the decency to remove your robe and find a new occupation.
If you can not in good faith respect and act upon the responsibility that comes with having your office when it comes to following judicial procedures and provide justice to those who stand before you as victims of crime by handing out sentences that are befitting of the crimes committed against them, in a timely manner without using a guilty verdict as a chance to let a predator have one more free run in society as you sit back and ponder the aspects of the law- please have the decency to remove your robe and find a new occupation.
If you can not in good faith take the verdict handed out by a jury and understand that the once accused person who stands before you is now a convicted person deserving whatever penalties may apply for the crimes he committed, and in realizing this, if you can not summon the courage to do your job and sentence him- please have the decency to remove your robe and find a new occupation.
We, the people of the state in which you sit as judges on a bench in our court rooms, would like you to understand that we demand that you take your current given occupation seriously, we demand that you fulfill your job requirements with the same honor and decency and moral accountability as those who sat on that bench before you. We, the victims of those who stand before you as convicted criminals demand that you do the job you were put there to do, with the urgency required in order deliver justice swiftly and fully on our behalf.
And, finally- let me be perfectly frank when I say this:
If you are unable to do your job, or if you are just unwilling to do it- get your ass off the bench, because we are more than willing to find someone who can and will do the job that your position requires. After all, we did not elect, nor support your appointment to your position so that you could let our courtrooms run amok, disregard guidelines set out in our laws on sentencing, or delay our right to justice due to your own questionable ideals.

Another One Who Was Out Early for ‘Good Time’
and of course, the current thorn in my side,Judge Daniel L. Howsare, which if I may ask, would someone call this idiot and ask when sentencing will be? I think they may have started screening my calls.
