"State Attorney General Drew Edmondson said Wednesday he will investigate the circumstances that resulted in an admitted child rapist getting only one year in jail.Edmondson said he was “outraged and disturbed at the outcome of the case” that has attracted national attention.
David Earls, 64, pleaded no contest on May 13 to raping a 5-year-old girl but had all but one year of a 20-year prison sentence suspended under a plea-bargain agreement."
"Earls was arrested for raping the 5-year-old girl victim in September of 2008, and has been held in the local jail, unable to make bail, ever since then.
Authorities said he could be released in three months if his sentence in the rape case is applied retroactively to time served."

Seriously?
Somebody pinch me and tell me my state justice system isn't abhorrent. Please?
Is there any possible way this verdict could be correct?
If yes, how? If no... how do we go about fixing this issue? I'm thinking protests.
