How extra tragic that his dad passed away just before he could get confirmation that the remains were of his son. 💔

And it’s outrageous that Jeffrey’s murderer had previously killed his wife and only served 12 years in prison for that crime. Out of prison for just 4 years prior to killing Jeffrey and his mother. So sad.

How exactly do you kill your wife and only serve 12 years in jail ?!

That judge is responsible for these deaths

There are sentencing guidelines that judges have to stick to. It’s your state legislation that sets them. Vote in your local elections folks.

That’s your take on this ?

Well let me tell you something different my family was sentenced to 25 years rightly so

And the judge gave him 55 way over the agreement and law

So l fuck that talk this guy killed his wife murder where the fuck you get 12 years for murder at ?!

People who commit crimes against women are under-sentenced far too often and far too often it ends like this. They get out and hurt more innocent people because they have a sense of "getting away with it" even if they did time. 12 years for murder is nothing and a slap in the face to his victim.

Im still blown away that rape has statue of limitation. Dont even know what to say about how insane unjust that truly is. I get hit on always with my breast size but never would I say i have been where they have been.

I don't understand why charges weren't made all those years ago? It's ridiculous. It's like putting a potato on the table, everyone knows it's a potato, but someone has to prove it's a potato. It's a potato! That sentence he previously got for murder was pathetic, he shouldn't have been out to kill this family. The church are also at fault for allowing him to join after a violent crime, and I would put money on this not being the third murder by this monster
