Wormwood is full of legal crap. The State should have downgraded this matter to a lesser included offense. The Judge should have and could have sentenced her, suspended sentence and levied an appropriate fine. The message would have been sent.

So you’re saying that the State should have ignored the law that Hall specifically broke, downgraded the charge so there was no felony involved, and then suspended her sentence? For what purpose?

As a retired law enforcement officer, I am shocked and appalled that a Prosecutor would waste the People’s money prosecuting this as a felony and more upset that a judge would sentence her to two years encarceration,( the defendant has no prior record-Wormwood would certainly have mentioned it if she did.) resulting in further cost to the People.

You can get pissed at the prosecutor all you like, but the judge’s hands were tied. Virginia has a minimum mandatory sentence for felonies. As a retired LEO, you should know what a mandatory minimum sentence means.

It would appear that the responsible prosecutor and judge involved in this matter should at least be censured if not terminated from the awsome powers given to them.

Yes, by all means, let’s terminate any prosecutor or judge who prosecutes or sentences people under the letter of the law. That’s the absolute best thing we can do; make sure that our justice system is afraid to follow the laws by which they are bound.

You must have been a great cop.
