The 35-year sentence given to Carmelo Anthony is excessive and should be re-evaluated.

“I'm not happy with the 35 years. I'm not I don't think that was the right call.”

The justice system is based on accountability for actions, and defendants are held to account for the choices they make.

“They were held to account. And as unfair as as that may be to people, that is the system that we have.”

Matthew Cox asserts that federal prosecutors frequently treat defendants unfairly by failing to honor promises of sentence reductions for substantial assistance.

“they always say consider I will consider it which is comical unless you're the recipient of that”

Granting a youthful offender status and allowing for record expungement in cases of severe violence undermines the purpose of the justice system and denies proper accountability.

“This young man is being shielded from real accountability while the trauma he caused will follow our daughters for the rest of their lives. This is not justice. It does not protect our children or the community.”
