The case has already achieved a “deterrence effect” to discourage similar crimes, Warner said in the hearing in Denver.
While I doubt it had any deterrance effect in the first place, shortening his time in jail so soon would indermine any possible deterrence effect.
He learned his lesson /s
He learned not to listen to cops
The shit of it is, the paramedics listened to the cops who demanded they inject him. They should have not been put in that situation. Cops shouldn’t have any power over paramedics. The cops should have been charged and sentenced.
Unfortunately, cops are the LARPers with guns, so until the false air of power goes away, it will always be an unbalanced situation.
This whole series of court cases was garbage and did nothing to add faith that the “system” may some day be fixed.
