Glad to see there's a man who understands the responsibilities of his office.
Unless the accused is like him . . . .
What proof do you have of that?
@@bobroberts2371 What do you mean like him? A judge?
@@AZCobraman.
@bobroberts2371 I agree with you. If it was the same kind of person like the judge, more than likely he would of got probation
It's comforting to know we still have sane and competent judges in our justice system.
Indeed thankfully this judge was democrat
@@olorin1710 Thank God not all Dems are freakin' crazy.
That STILL only counts as ONE!
The judges putting Trump in his corrupt place are great judges
Yeah jail is for punishment not rehabilitation.
A carjacking ends in murder, and the defendant gets a plea deal to avoid all prison time. This is outrageous. I don't care if he is "rehabilitated." His victim will not have that option.
If such plea deals are considered justice by prosecutors then they shouldn't be surprised if people start taking justice into their own hands.
"He'll come out of prison worse than he went in." Who tf ever decided that he should come back out then?
Thank you for saving me a post. I agree. First thoughts to occur to me after hearing that. It used to be that an accomplice to a crime, regardless of how peripheral it was, is EQUALLY responsible. Someone dies in a carjacking? In Texas its capital. Life or death. If you are committing a felony and someone dies, If you arent executed, you NEVER get out.
Should never come out. The victim will never come out of the ground. Why should he?
So, he only supplied the guns and fired a few rounds, but he "didn't do much"? WTF!
Exactly. All we hear about is gun crime, gun crime, gun crime. Then when they actually have a man standing in front of them who committed gun crimes, the want to give him probation so he can go do it again. Then the same DA will turn around and cry about gun crime. She IS the problem.
White lady DA saw her son in the criminal. This is what people complain about when they talk about white privilege.
Liberal thought process for you
@@ohsnap6506sure if that's what you think.. I'm a bleeding heart liberal and he should definitely face jail.
The “judge” wants to let him go
It's time to find another district attorney.
I can’t even tell if the DA is a man or woman
The DA should not be allowed to try any more cases. Fire that DA now.
No chance in that city. Just relax and accept this imo
@@imanoldurango8213 Yep. That's the first clue is a pro-crime city.
@@user-ts7ns7bt2v A coward like you would just give up in tough circumstances
Well done, judge!
Apparently the prosecution forgot that their role is to stand for the victims and with the victims families, not be second counsel for the defense.
protect this judge at all costs.
So glad this plea deal was rejected. The Hennepin County Attorney's a disgrace! She's a social worker, not a fighter for justice.
The previous CA fucked the case up
Moriarty is truly an activist. I was shocked awhile back when she said her main goal was to prosecute cops
Hey now, some of us social workers have common sense. I know most social workers are delusional liberals, but not all of us
She has been bought and paid for thoroughly by guess who.
She looks like a possible Froot Loop!
DA cares more about the criminal than the victim or his family. Tells you all you need to know.
Ironically the Voters wanted this.
When you realize Democrats are still angry about losing the Civil War and their slaves and have been seeking revenge against the United States and our people since the 1860's, everything they've done since then makes perfect sense.
DA's do this to avoid the expenses of a trial.
@@macdeus2601DA’s like Mary Moriarty (Democrat, not ironic) should then be held liable for any additional crimes that persist from her lack of proper justice.
@@user-vj2ng5el9r Who needs voters anymore? The fix is in... we all know it.
That is a good judge! Finally someone willing to stand up for what is right. 👏🏼
Wow, where's your sympathy for the poor criminal though? His part in the crime was so small! All he did was provide all the guns that were used to commit the murder, knowing they would be used to commit murder, and he only fired a few of the bullets himself. That's all! Think of how sad he'll be if he has to go to jail 😢
You would think that's obvious sarcasm, but the district attorney actually said it with a straight face. Holy shit.
@@mayebeline1149He really said that? Wow fire his ass and exile him to the PD's office. Then he can defend all the criminals he wants.
Most judges are "good."
@@mja91352 you obviously dont live in California.
@@halfasiansweeti610Nothing is good about California. California is actually the reason why there’s so many rules and regulations when dealing with heavy equipment and building codes. They’re also part of the reason why LGBXYZ transformers think they’re entitled to be called anything but morons.
Every criminal is a "batter person" once they find themselves standing in front of a judge...
This country needs more judges like this...
Like Mark McGwire?
Want to tell us what a "batter person" is?
when someone is CAUGHT AFTER THE FACT!!! LOL@@mja91352
Good for that judge. Probation for a death is just sick.
Sounds like something those Euros would do. I swear the most they get for murder is like 12 hours in jail
@@AnarchistPsychoSweden. Lol
Happens to black folks all the time. Don't see all this concern about that injustice, though.
@@IloveswedesName one instance........⏰️
@@WIZZYDANThere was a apartment complex security guard who shot a black teen in front of his white girlfriend. He moved out of the area, despite not being charged. I'll let you figure out the motive.
So, you basically can kill someone and apologize to get probation? Damn, the justice department fucked yo.
Look up George s0r0s
Only as long as you are the right color.
@@williamweigt7632don’t forget you also have to have money
Yo if I'm the guy and or his lawyer I figure out a number start around 3 to 5 years and work from there because in no way would go to trial after what the judge did
I don’t think he killed anyone himself but I agree probation is not enough considering his involvement.
No more plea deals. They're an insult to the victims and their families.
I have never understood why a plea deal is allowed without the victims agreement. Aren't we supposed to be getting justice for the victim? A plea deal does not get justice. It just punishes. It doesn't give justice to the victim of the crime. For some reason our justice system doesn't seem to get the difference between justice and punishment. Justice is for the victim, punishment is for the criminal. You can give the criminal punishment without giving his victim justice. And that's exactly what a plea deal does.
@@MamaMOBit's not "our" or yours justice system, it's Their justice system.
@@commanderpp most of them have no resources to expensive trial.
@@MamaMOBBecause sometimes the victims would accept nothing less than a death sentence and that's not at all fair or reasonable.
Plea deals are necessary as long as organized crime exists. The only thing that stops mafia from taking over a city is the knowledge that one prosecutor could waive prison time and get one member to rat everyone out.
Also, 95 percent of cases are settled in a plea deal, the court system literally cannot handle everyone going to trial.
I just commented on another video on how shameful a judge was for his choice of punishment for a murderer. This judge, deserves praise.
What kinda prosecutor agrees to probation for a crime like this? Sad, sad, sad.
Democrats
A Democrat
A Soros-backed prosecutor.
Leftists.
A liberal
If in commission of a felony someone dies, you're supposed to go to jail for murder.
4 years ago that scumbag was 16 if the info in the news is correct.
@@mengkhang1037so what? Do the crime do the time. You want to commit an adult crime do the adult time too.
SO FUCKINGWHAT! @@mengkhang1037
@@mengkhang1037when I was 16 I didnt kill anyone. in fact, ive never been a criminal, wonder how that works
he supplied the guns and fired shoots... im gonna say he deserves what he gets 20+ years in prison.
The fact that this issue even existed is disgusting..... Good on you Judge!
The fact that the family wasn’t even asking for capital punishment and just wanted prison time, and were close to not even getting that. Insane.
Does Minnesota have a death penalty?
I can't believe the prosector agreed to such a give away. Thank you Judge for stopping this insanity. It was a very violent crime.
WOKEISM
Liberals for ya
She's probably a Soros stooge.
Administrative efficiency, they accepted some BS summary of the case and rubber stamped it without digging
Minnesota is the biggest criminal sympathizing state in the country. 2nd degree murder there is usually only 22 years
I’m so confused. Why would the prosecution be on the defendants side? And probation for an armed carjacking murder case? Are you kidding me!? The audacity to even ask for probation…
Far-left prosecutors and district attorneys think its 'mean' to put people in prison. They also think crimes such as theft should be legal. This mindset is spreading throughout the country.
This judge happens to be old-school. Unfortunately many new judges are far-left and would have welcomed this plea deal.
I guess it's just how the DFL likes to conduct policy
Because Minneapolis / Hennepin County / Minnesota are liberal democrat run shitholes.
They do this to destroy society
I showed this to a friend that is an attorney. She said the prosecutor agrees with the defense attorney, because it literally keeps the district attorney's office batting average up. That way they get a victory instead of going to trial and possibly losing
I almost cried for this family’s loss. I’m glad to see there’s one change in justice to hold these monsters accountable. Even though this isn’t the final decision, I applaud the judge for protecting his community. Good job Sir 🫡
It is such a shame when the lives of an entire family are put on hold for years when the person is so obviously guilty and deserves to be in jail. Must be a terrible way to live.
the DA belongs in prison
Mens prison !
They all do.
@@robertlewis1965 ew
That DA is a disgrace. What kind of rotten soul pleas down a carjacking murderer to no prison? The justice system needs to do a house cleaning of these lazy District Attorneys who plea everything down so they don't have to do their job.
Soros...
I agree with you, but most Da's are elected. Clearly, she was a bad choice.
@@dwwolf4636 most know nothing of George Soros
This isn't lazy...Moiarty is working VERY hard to be an activist
A "woman" with a soccer hairdo financed by George Soros
The judges rejection of this truly gives me hope for the future. So sorry for the families loss.
Don't worry, you'll lose it again.
The DA downgraded his charges after this to attempted assault from murder. He pled guilt and was released immediately.
This judge should be given many accolades, he is wonderful, finally a Judge who is doing his job following the law, why isn't there more like him, God bless him
"The criminal would be worse off going to prison." - Well, yeah. Prison is 1. to Punish the guilty and 2. Protect Society.
And 3. To serve as a deterrent for others looking to commit similar behavior.
I think all these liberal attorneys lost sight of that a long time ago.
My sister in law is a retired prison guard. Years ago, when they passed that "Three Strikes Rule" her union STRONGLY opposed it. Their reason... Inmates now "Didn't give a f@#k" because they were incarcerated for life. She said it created a greater danger in her profession. My argument... At least NOW they were a "danger" in prison and not out on the street. Kinda made simple sense to me.
@@peter2liter see rule #2
More judges need to step up and stop letting these plea deals get accepted .
They should put district attorneys who came up with this deal behind bars
That's an honorable judge. Thank you judge.
Hennepin County Attorney's office is a disgrace to the public . This thug needs to be sent to prison . Thank you, Judge, for doing your job in protecting public safety .
A carjacker being held responsible and possibly sequestered from peaceful but vulnerable society for awhile? *This is fake news.* Now I know why so many say faux news when talking about fox news.
Agreed!
There is nothing else to call this plea deal than a disgrace. This Prosecutor needs to lose her job if this is her idea of justice.
This judge did part of my custody hearing.. he is a good, fair, judge.
Thank you for being a strong judge with principals and morals. May God bless that judge, and the family who lost their loved one.
Wow! This is amazing. Kudos to the judge.
ESPECIALLLY IN LEFTIE MINNIE
he had the feet on the ground experience working with probate juveniles to see what was going on. He plugged in his experience and was able to do the right thing because of that past experience.

Glad the judge threw that sick "plea deal": out That county attorney was looking for a way to close another case to prevent work. Pure and simple. Hope the victims family can see justice served as it should be.
The DA needs to find a new line of work.
@@Thunderbyrd.The DA should become a social worker. Probably won't because of the huge pay cut.
Nope it's not to close the case fast. It's because she's a democrat DA aka social justice advocate aka protect and advocate for the criminals and spit in the face of the victims.
Shame on the DAs office. Good for the judge to step up and do good job. I'm sorry for the family and the victim.
Thank you Judge for not failing this grief stricken family. The prosecutor certainly didn't care about the young man that was murdered only the criminal. It is so hard to believe that this prosecutor thought probation on felony murder was the right sentence.
It’s disgraceful that someone involved in a carjacking resulting in a murder could even be offered a plea deal involving no time in jail.
This is a rebuke of the DA's soft on crime plea deals. 🎉
A lesbian... you need more explanations.
They would have just let this man go without so much as a slap on the wrist. The fact that this was even a proposed plea deal is a disgrace to the justice system and I respect that judge for having the wherewithal to reject it.
Finally, a judge that actually has some balls.
How can you trust the prosecutor to even really try to win this case?
That’s the sad reality, she wanted a cop out with the plea deal, and now that she actually has to do her job she’ll put in no effort
I agree, hopefully someone above her with common sense will assign the case to another attorney.
What if I told you with a tiny amount of searching I found out that the prosecutor got the guy who shot him 22 years in prison and that they likely thought the evidence suggested this guy wasn't as guilty. I'd have to disagree with the probation thing, maybe only 10 years in prison for being an accessory, or whatever that charge calls for.
@@derekbrandell8520 What it calls for is same charges as the person already sentenced, because they already convicted the other guy they have this guy all sewn up already. The fact that the bullets he fired didn't hit anyone doesn't matter much, he was there committing a felony and a homicide happened. "My bullets that I fired with intent of murdering someone while trying to rob him didn't hit him, it was my friend who I planned it with and gave a gun, he's the one who hit the guy." Doesn't really sound like a defense. Accessory would be driving the other car while not knowing the full intent of what was going on, then flipping on everyone involved. Then you still have the car jacking charges, which is grand theft, not to mention the gun charges that can be prosecuted both locally and federally.
DAs are elected, and this looks really bad if she were to throw the case. DAs don't like to lose cases.
Bleeding hearts bleeding for the wrong person. True victims have no standing in the world today.
You say this while literally commenting on the video that proved the opposite?
@@rplayer360 you just come in to the comments section just to disagree with someone and steal their precious likes?

@@NobodyAsked-xh8cs wait what? Are you projecting?
@@kenbrown5449 oh you one of those that simply jump on the bandwagon of somebody else's accusation and think it's true huh
We need more judges like this one.
Finally a story about a judge with guts
Thank your Honor for rejecting that ridiculous deal
That guy needs prison period
These attorneys doing these plea deals are disgusting
To be fair, the judge did his job and the defense attorney was doing her job. It was the District Attorney who was the only one not doing her job. Attorneys all.
@@gregorydamario7977 maybe you can't read. Terry said the ones doing the plea deal, they weren't.
I've said this so many times before, there should never be a plea deal for murder.
I can see it if there's a substantial number of years included in the deal. Maybe give the person 35 instead of 40, or 17 instead of 20. The court system is stretched too thin and broken. If it would allow for more violators to face justice for their crimes, I'd be for some minor plea dealing. Especially since a plea deal usually cancels out appeals and the court system having to allocate even more resources to deal with that.
To take the death penalty off the table or 'only' do 40 years instead of 60? Sure. If that helps get a definite conviction.
Shame on the prosecution for even offering the plea deal!
Finally, great to see a judge ensuring justice.
I'm glad to see this judge turning round and saying no to the plea deal he helped commit the crime
Thank God we have a Judge with some common sense. God bless you sir!
So nice to see a judge stand up for the victim and family. A rarity
Truly a rarity in Hennepin County. I lives there until recently. The insane leniency is one reason I left.
Absolutely outstanding
finally a judge with good judgement, Congratulations to the family.
Too many DA's will do anything to lessen their workload and chalk up easy "wins". But justice dies.
The DA is a disgrace. The defendant is just as culpable as his accomplice in the eyes of the law. If the DA cannot prosecute cases of murder during the commission of a crime then she should be removed from office.
DA's like this are accomplices after the fact.
After this, the DA downgraded the charges for murder to attempted assault without telling the family.
He was released imminent after pleading guilty to his new charge.
Are you seriously @@topofthemorning6832
God bless this judge. He understands his Oath of office. He is an absolutely phenomenal judge.
He looks so rehabilitated and remorseful.
Finally, a strong judge for a change!
This is what a judge should be.
Thank you Judge..
The plea deal consists of no prison time after someone died..
About time the judges started to push back on these lazy prosecutors.
It’s amazing they have plea deals like that in the first place. It’s almost like killing is legal amazing
Only for non-whites.
If the evidence was weak, I could see a plea deal being appropriate, but this doesn't sound like the prosecution is short on evidence.
I am so happy to hear a judge stand up for America and do what is right. So many just want to slap their hand just to get as many trials out of the way as they can. My hat comes off to this judge.
The judge signed the same deal less than two months later.
He is a coward.
Holy cow! Holding criminals accountable!
Prosecutor says he would come out of prison "worse off than he is now". He's already a murderer- how much worse can he get?
Glad the family of the victim is finally getting some justice.
Much respect for the Judge!!
Good for the judge for hearing the voices of the people we need more judges like this who aren’t afraid to convict people
How can you not go to jail for murder? Wonder why the streets are becoming prisons for everyone
by turning States Evidence
Thank you Judge 👍
Why does the title only list Carjacking in it and not Murder?
That prosecutor should be fired. This kid wasn't out shoplifting candy bars.
Prosecution is concerned that he won’t get the help if he’s in prison. This kid knew right from wrong decided to be apart of the armed carjacking anyway, he needs to be held accountable. I don’t understand why he doesn’t get treatment in prison? That is something that needs to be looked into by people from the outside. This family will never see their loved one again.
Wait just a minute. He's not 25 yet. How could he possibly know that carjacking and shooting at someone was wrong?
Not just decided to be part he supplied the guns
I am glad there is a man with integrity in that county . Thank you judge for making the correct decision .
That is not fair! How do you skirt responsibility if youre held accountable?
He can make progress in prison for the next 20 years
The prosecutors should be prosecuted. It is their jobs to seek justice for the victims, not looking for sympathy for the criminals. They are doing the opposite of what they supposed to do.
they are controlled by “defund the police” libs who want anyone who is white killed and your property redistributed
CHANGE OF HEART DOESN'T NEGATE RESPONSABILITY
Who even thinks of giving a plea deal to a carjacker who killed someone? What treatment does anyone get for car jacking? 🤷♂️!!
Other judges need to be strong like this guy
Good. Then he can be a 'new man' in prison and be accountable for his actions.
Bravo we need more justice in this world.
A 22 year deal- to probation is crazy lol. What did he give?
Thank you judge, for restoring a little bit of my faith in the fact that there are still some decent and sane people left up at the top of the law. For that I’m grateful, and I’m sure the family is too
After this the prosecution downgraded his charge to attempted assault, he pled guilty and was released immediately.
No real difference occurred for the family in the end.
@@topofthemorning6832 Disgraceful. Utterly disgraceful.
The judge knows all too well exactly what DA's and prosecutors do to other people over a simple misdemeanor. His own family has likely been profiled. He's what a judge should be and the family deserves justice.
Thank you judge!!!!
Respect to you judge!
Brotha stuck it to the lame Moriarty prosecutor. All those like her are why we have rampant criminality these days. I just moved from Seattle living there for 25 years and was lucky to leave with my life. My child was not so fortunate.
Thank God there is at least 1 RESPONSIBLE judges on the bench!
😵💫those lawyers should be ashamed of them selves 🤮
Thank you judge!
Thank you, Judge Sensible 👏👍
Thank you judge for rejecting the plea deal. Most plea deals do not hold the criminals completely accountable. We are all accountable for the things we do.
Imagine if someone did that to DA's family, wonder if she'd feel the same?
