Thats California for you - if you are a white man - you get a different style of "justice" - for some reason if your skin is a darker complexion you get a pass for your horrible behavior - because we all know its not your fault because of "equity". SMH.. This loser Cesar Morales actually killed 2 people - he was the one who crashed his car into the parents of those young children - and he all he gets is house arrest. 8 years vs Nothing. There has been 14 year olds charged as adults - Cesar Morales was around 6 months from turning 18 and for some reason - they didn't choose to charge him as an adult.....for killing 2 people. This is why normal people don't step in and stop bad behavior anymore - like Daniel Penny - if a criminal isn't white - you will get crucified for putting him in his place. This misplaced sympathy is disgusting.

Thanks for your letter, Ms. McCormick. I’m sure many agree with your conclusion that justice wasn’t served. The bigger question is why the government didn’t see fit to charge Mr. Morales as an adult. This action is not a novel idea as many youths have been charged and convicted as adults, with appropriate penalties. Perhaps there’s a valid reason, or perhaps, as you’ve concluded, justice wasn’t served and this result fell through the cracks. Regardless, let’s hope Mr. Morales learned his lesson and becomes a law-abiding citizen for the remainder of his life.
