Compassionate Judge
Gary Clow, 35, admitted he took a couple in Grand Junction, Colo., hostage in their home. He admitted he asked the male victim, “Have you ever had your kneecaps blown off?” while holding him at gunpoint, pulling back the hammer. Judge Brian Flynn, taking note of Clow’s “habitual criminal” status, sentenced him to 428 years in prison. However, Judge Flynn is far from cruel: he gave Clow 308 days of credit for time served while awaiting his trial. (Grand Junction Daily Sentinel) ...Not to mention that with time off for good behavior, he could be out in just 214 years.
