Shawn Jordan was sentenced Wednesday to 10 weekends in jail and 10 years probation. He pleaded guilty to raping the teen in 2022 in South Bristol.
Shawn Jordan also was sentenced to 10 years probation under an initial plea agreement. Jordan pleaded guilty earlier this year to raping the girl in 2022 in South Bristol.
I get not wanting the victim to have to testify at that age, but how does a plea offer of less than a month in jail even get made for something like this?
I don’t know the details, maybe those are sealed. I don’t know anything and I’m not a lawyer. The defendant may have a legal advantage in that no victim will testify (victim is a child, we don’t force children to testify).
It’s fug ing absurd ill give you that
Because he’s a cop. It’s surprising he was even charged for it.
I read that headline as 10 weeks in jail, and thought “that’s not enough time I should reread that” turns out I was wrong but the real headline was worse.
eh?! the weekends? like he’s grounded? Can he choose which one, otherwise that could overlap with his plans he made for his weekends and that would be a bit harsh!

Disgusting piece of shit and sentence.
“I’m not entirely satisfied with the sentence … but ultimately as a prosecutor I have to weigh things like the impact of actually having to testify on the victim of this crime,” said Ontario County Assistant District Attorney Kelly Wolford. “And she’s a child, and she was going to have to face her accuser in the courtroom. And when I was given the opportunity to consider whether or not we’d take a guilty plea – absolutely, all day, in a circumstance like this.”
**** edit this is Canada shit, happened in Canada, apologies, I think it’s relevant to the us *****
It’s really rough. The u.s. judicial system is not prepared to deal with this.
Canada has a very serious violence against women problem. And as it turns out a horrific sentencing problem
It’s a US story
Thanks friend, always appreciate a bit of solidarity in the face of stupid
He’s a cop so he can never be wrong but we’ll give you a token to shut you up.
And this is why I will never trust the police. Not here. Not in any other place I have lived. Why does this monster get to keep on living and the rest of us suffer his abuse? Sure, keep on making “task forces” to bring the gun violence down in the city, but we are still going to rape your children. Fuck the entire force and “justice” system for not putting this guy behind bars. I seriously doubt Monroe county will punish him either.
The UK has a pedophile king. Ofc they’re going to be extremely lenient with sexual assault of a minor.
this happened in Bristol NY, USA
not in Canada? I don’t know what to believe anymore

Is Charles a nonce? We all know Andrew is, but Charles?
it’s funny seeing everyone in the thread outing themselves as not reading the article. guys the location is the very first part of the article body.
Is it rape because she’s underage, or is it rape because she didn’t consent?
Yes.
Underage people cannot consent.
There is no consent if you’re underage. Period.
So it’s rape because she can’t consent, because she’s underage. They go hand in hand here.
