The Robin Aponte case was to have a Sentencing Hearing yesterday.
He plead to lessor charges to avoid up to 16 years in prison. also to avoid a trial.
Hon. Judge Craig Parsons presided over that hearing yesterday.
I was suprised as were others that the Judge allowed a defense expert witness to testify as to tire skid marks, and what in his opinion that meant the driver was doing etc.
I was expecting to hear Victim statements and relatives of the Victim statements.
Case continued to Friday 9:30 AM.... maybe more witnesses who knows.
