Anyone in vermont? I want this man impeached.
    #5176186 -

This is so wrong that I can't even hardly put it in words. I am sure someone has posted this but I am stoned and could not find it. I was just surfing the tv and seen this and I am appalled. Something like this shakes your faith in the system if you have any faith left that is.


There was outrage Wednesday when a Vermont judge handed out a 60-day jail sentence to a man who raped a little girl many,many times over a four-year span starting when she was seven.

The judge said he no longer believes in punishment and is more concerned about rehabilitation.

Prosecutors argued that confessed child-rapist Mark Hulett, 34, of Williston deserved at least eight years behind bars for repeatedly raping a littler girl countless times starting when she was seven.

But Judge Edward Cashman disagreed explaining that he no longer believes that punishment works.

"The one message I want to get through is that anger doesn't solve anything. It just corrodes your soul," said Judge Edward Cashman speaking to a packed Burlington courtroom. Most of the on-lookers were related to a young girl who was repeatedly raped by Mark Hulett who was in court to be sentenced.

The sex abuse started when the girl was seven and ended when she was ten. Prosecutors were seeking a sentence of eight to twenty years in prison, in part, as punishment.

"Punishment is a valid purpose," Chittenden Deputy Prosecutor Nicole Andreson argued to Judge Edward Cashman.

"The state recognizes that the court may not agree or subscribe to that method of sentencing but the state does. The state thinks that it is a very important factor for the court to consider," Andreson added.

But Judge Cashman explained that he is more concerned that Hulett receive sex offender treatment as rehabilitation. But under Department of Corrections classification, Hulett is considered a low-risk for re-offense so he does not qualify for in-prison treatment.So the judge sentenced him to just 60 days in prison and then Hulett must complete sex treatment when he gets out or face a possible life sentence.

Judge Cashman also also revealed that he once handed down stiff sentences when he first got on the bench 25 years ago, but he no longer believes in punishment.

"I discovered it accomplishes nothing of value;it doesn't make anything better;it costs us a lot of money; we create a lot of expectation, and we feed on anger,"Cashman explained to the people in the court.

The sentence outraged the victim's family who asked not to be identified.

"I don't like it," the victim's mother,in tears, told Channel 3. "He should pay for what he did to my baby and stop it here. She's not even home with me and he can be home for all this time, and do what he did in my house," she added.

Hulett -- who had been out on bail-- was taken away to start his sentence immediately.

impeachment? I'd consider something like that complicity in the crime.
if the child molester gets 60 days, the judge should get life.

I agree that prison has nothing to do with rehabilitation but prison
has ways of dealing with child molesters, the punishment fits the crime,
unfortunately, if they survive, they're usualy much worse.

prison in this case has nothing to do with rehabilitation, it is intended to get a person who is an obvious threat to the part of the population that needs the most protection off the streets and into lockdown.

prison was never about rehabilitation, it's always been punishment and poorly
devised system, frankly, if it's not cruel and unusual, it's not punishment

i agree with the judge: punishment doesn't work.

preventing repeat offences does work.
it's also cheap and easy.

Maybe the upside to this is that a permit is not required to carry in Vermont. Perhaps street justice will prevail...

I'm sure prison justice will prevail. What they do to child molestors in prison is unmentionable. That man will have the worst 60 days of his life...if he survives.

60 days is county jail time, in excess of a year they send you to prison
the guy got a slap on the wrist and the judge informed him that child molestation does pay
