    • how long will he be in prison?Bennn

    • Two murder charges and manslaughter. There's no way out of life that I'm aware of.monospaced
    • "The maximum sentence for second-degree unintentional murder is imprisonment of not more than 40 years."grafician
    • Justice was served, but police brutality will carry on, even more so, most likelygrafician
    • I know you're from Romania, so I'll give you time to read the Wiki and news so you can catch up.monospaced
    • And you're clearly missing the precedent this sets for the future. Perhaps you'll read about that too and repost it here.monospaced
    • What wiki, this was straight from CNN https://edition.cnn.…grafician
    • Two murder charges and manslaughter. There's no way out of life that I'm aware of.monospaced
    • Ah I believe we both posted at the same time, I was replying to Bennn with my quote, not yougrafician
    • But from what I'm reading, this was just the verdict, still need for the judge to read the sentencing? plus appeals?grafician
    • Yes, you would know that if you were a US citizen. You can read the Wiki. Usually three felonies are enough for a 3-strikes rule to apply.monospaced
    • I'm hoping he gets the high end of each charge at least, maybe 20-30 years ideally.monospaced
    • What wiki mono, all this is on twitter man
      anyway      grafician
    • Appeals will start shortlyGnash
    • Wiki. Twitter. News. You’re learning on the fly in real time. I understand it’s not the same in your country, so you have to look it up to post here.monospaced
    • mono lol yeah we have no clue here how the justice system works, we barely use it, but the sentences are merged and the defendant serves the longest onegrafician
    • so in this case, he would do 40 to lifegrafician
    • https://youtu.be/Q-b…
      Yup he will serve the longest one. According to YT lawyer.      pango
    • tldr key is "multiple charges from the same act". he will serve the longest one out of all the charges.pango
