If you’re bored and want to list them in the comments please feel free. But I can’t believe how light a sentence this guy was given.

This reminds me of a recent local story, where a guy was fined for shooting a bear out of season and without a license. He fought the charges using the defense that he didn’t know it was a bear – he just saw something black that was upsetting his dog. So he SHOT it!
The sentence was light because the charges were poorly supported. And that was probably because the investigators didn’t give a crap from the very beginning. If they’d bothered to obtain evidence properly and thoroughly, that would have put this guy away for a much longer time.
Where to start? Where to start? Ehh, she was a meth head. They get shot in the head. Just like hawks. Whaaa??
@Eric: He admitted to shooting the woman. What more is needed?
@Julie and Jeff: I am so tired of the insane gun culture in this country…
@Corey: if you’re tired of it, just shoot it, right?
I know, so not-funny… 🙁
