[QUOTE="witzend, post: 284933, member: 99"] It was the appearance of impropriety that they worried about. The judge still had to decide an appropriate sentence, and if that one had been given by a judge who was well known the family there would have been an uproar. It was the only way to keep someone from crying "foul" later on in the game due to the judge being a personal friend. For a first offense shoplifting, the sentence sounds about right. In pleading guilty, she admitted the facts of the crime in court. She doesn't have to explain why or give up any personal information. It was a smart move on her part. Hopefully she'll straighten up her act. [/QUOTE]
