On the Bias May 5, 2021 Share May 5, 2021 1 hour ago, Tikichick said: What happens at the corrections level as far as how much of any sentence is served is what I can never understand. I literally want to dance a jig at the knowledge that one of Josh's charges has a mandatory minimum. In the federal system, you serve 85% of your sentence by statute, and the way the BOP calculates it, it’s really 87%. In addition, in all but the most minor cases, the court is required to impose a term of supervised release that begins when the defendant is released from custody. It’s been several years since I was in practice, but as far as I can remember, the offenses with which Josh is charged carry a minimum supervised release term of five years. In the district where I practiced, judges routinely imposed lifetime terms of supervised release in CP cases, although those cases typically involved hundreds or even thousands of images and dozens of videos rather than the sixty-five images and one video reported here. Supervised release is conditional, which means that the defendant must abide by the conditions of release that the judge has imposed. The federal Probation Office is in charge of ensuring that he does. Conditions in a CP case may include restrictions on certain kinds of computer use, a bar on being around children, prohibitions against living near a school, and so forth. If the defendant violates his supervised release terms, the court may send him back to prison. 8 5 Link to comment

If the defendant violates his supervised release terms, the court may send him back to prison. Are you suggesting that he can be convicted of this and not be placed on the Sexual Offender Registry for life? That's statutory here. That also takes care of how close he can live to a school, a park, a childcare center, etc. Are felons required to pay supervision fees for supervised release at the federal level? Some cases here even result in the defendant being required to be tethered on supervised release and potentially for a period of time afterwards if deemed appropriate. I am aware of a case here where a judge imposed a lifetime tether requirement upon release that was struck down on appeal. ETA Disheartened tremendously that mandatory minimum might not require serving the mandatory sentence, simply being a minimum a judge must not go below in sentencing.

Given JB’s political contacts, perhaps they kept the case to ensure the appearance of neutrality. 5 1 Link to comment

Arkay May 5, 2021 Share May 5, 2021 (edited) Thanks to everyone who is explaining what Tor is about. I didn’t know either and really didn’t want to Google it. I was going to ask why it’s allowed to exist, but several of you have answered that it was meant to give assistance to those in repressive regimes. I feel the same sick that we all feel and I don’t know how much more I even want to know. I’ve got three grandkids and spent 25 years teaching 8th grade English in Coney Island. When Bloomberg became the mayor in 2002, we weren’t supposed to deviate at all from the scripted curriculum. I did always insert some life lessons when I felt I could, and one thing I ALWAYS said was that If anyone touched you inappropriately, etc., they should tell their parents or teachers etc. These were 13 and 14 year old kids, and some gruesome things did happen. I was thankful that they came to me to tell me and I could tell the appropriate personnel. That Josh will have seven children, the first six of whom love him and are being taught to respect him, is highly damaging to their sense of safety and to the worldview that parents take care of them. The older ones will need honest and helpful counseling for years. Edited May 5, 2021 by Arkay 10 Link to comment

The charges are for only a two day window which in my mind means that they are the only ones that can be definitively tied to just Josh. But likely he viewed many many many more and much more often - and he just didn't store those? Am I reading this right? 8 8 Link to comment

I have some religious friends. It is a browser and it sends reports of every website you visit to your accountability partner. One of the moms I know was mad because her kid took it off his phone. So she lost the ability to spy on him! She was losing her mind. It is mainly to monitor for porn and gambling! 7 Link to comment

Thanks (great nap, though.. it's raining here) We really don't know yet (as of 4:25 PM Central Time). The judge issued an order that nobody was to post on social media until the hearing is over. The Sun has run a story supposedly quoting some testimony. They may be correct. Or not. The NW Arkansas reporter I'm following on this, thanks to a tip from @Zella, has as of this minute not posted anything from the hearing which was supposed to start about 3 hours ago. It's Garrett Fergeson, @Garrett_photo on Twitter. ETA: TMZ just posted a story that claims a Federal agent testified that there were 200 images on Josh's computer with children as young as 5. Not the same numbers and ages claimed in The Sun's online story from earlier this afternoon. I'm skeptical of all these early reports and I won't waste a single brain cell on whatever ignorant hash the twit at WOACB makes of it all on her YT channel. I'll wait for the end of the hearing to get the actual news. Edited May 5, 2021 by Jeeves 4 8 Link to comment
