: Lowering the BarAn Unusual Penalty
By Kevin Underhill
The SoHo bar bouncer convicted last month . . . was sentenced to life without parole in Brooklyn State Supreme Court on Wednesday afternoon.An unusual penalty.
I've never been to Brooklyn State Supreme Court, so I don't know how to evaluate that as a punishment. On the other hand, I was recently paroled from what felt like a life sentence practicing law in Los Angeles Superior Court, and I definitely did not deserve that.
