how is it that he can serve life, for assulting his former girlfriend, but if you molest a child and screw up their lives forever you get 5 years?

I never like when a man goes to prison over raping etc. A wife or girl friend. To many variables. A pissed off woman can ruin a man. Not defending this guy at all. Just see it a lot in the justice system.

I worked with Joseph in his employment with the severely disabled. He was gentle, kind, patient and showed genuine concern and empathy for those he cared for. I do not know what happened to bring him to this because this is not the person I know and love.
