We have the finest system of justice that money can buy.

Friend of mine here at work is related to the Allenders and he's upset and I totally understand. The kid sentenced did admit to hitting Mr. Allender in the head with a baseball bat. I'm upset too. But, that's the way our criminal system works. It's all based upon deals, wins and losses. They're bent on burrying Taylor Flynn - and they should - but at the expense of justice is a bit hard to swallow. I mean they've got all three of them dead to rights. I'm not sure why they needed a deal.

I've heard that Bloomington defense attorney Sam Shapiro is very good. I wonder how much this kid's parents paid for this "deal?" While he may not be in a cage for decades, having to register as a murder for life and dealing with a drug addiction likely means he won't have much when he gets out. His parents are going to have to support him forever and if he is able to obtain some kind of skilled trade and find decent work, he likely will have to move away from that area as too many people will remember. Anyone know what kind of drugs they were addicted to? As I stated earlier in this thread I always check Facebook profiles of suspects in these crimes. Usually I see they were active then at some point, usually six or more months, all activity just ceases for most. Odd how one can pretty much determine when the addiction finally took over. I'm guessing pills and/or heroin.

Meth/Krack are the usual suspects when criminal activity reaches these levels.

I happily don't have much dealing with the legal system, but he represented me years ago. He is one very slick operator in the court room. He very easily "handled" all of the court room participants. Also constantly gave me play-by-play advice as they spoke. He'd be my guy again if needed as long as I could afford this services.

Pretty much what Flynn got. Tragic all the way around.
