This month, in New York, on the subway, a violent lunatic named Jordan Neely, a 30-year-old black criminal with 44 recorded arrests, including 3 brutal assaults of old ladies and the attempted kidnapping of a 7-year-old girl, was incessantly raving and screaming and throwing garbage at and threatening passengers with violence and saying that he wanted to die and who knows what else until he was subdued by an ex-marine who put hit him in a choke-hold and was rendered unconscious It took the police 15-minutes to arrive, He was driven by ambulance to a hospital where he later died.

44 arrests, beginning in his mid-teens as with most volent and/or recidivist black male criminals, and who knows how many other crimes, felonies and misdemeanors, for which he wasn’t even arrested, including beatings of elderly women, the worst a brutal and vicious assault of 57-year-old women in which he broke her nose and eye socket. and the failed abduction of a 7-year-old girl with the intention to rape and/or molest her, almost surely, and likely murder her -all this and he never served a day in prison and only a few months in jail and was free to walk the streets of NYC and commit dozens of crimes and assaults and berate and harass and terrorize myriads of people, both directly, verbally and physically, nearly always females apparently, and indirectly, both men and women and boys and girls on the streets and in parks and stores and riding the subway and elsewhere.

In a sane and just and rational city/state/country, this predatory and violent lunatic would have been convicted of aggravated assault the first time he brutalized an old lady and sentenced to 10-20 years in a “psych ward” in one of New York’s many prisons.

And Abigail would not have even been charged with a crime and surely not a felony. She would have been punished, non-criminally, by dismissal and the revocation of her license and expulsion from the profession for 5-10 years. Or, at worst, charged with a misdemeanor, however defined, and sentenced to a few months and/or week of probation until her “victim” turned 16, the generic age of consent in Michigan and most U.S. jurisdictions. And that’s assuming hse lying about her “victim” being the victimizer.

But in our insane and unjust and irrational country, given the lunacy and hysteria and moral panic and witch-hunt over adult women having sex with young men under statutory age, especially those in positions of authority over their “victims” like teachers or tutors like Abigail, she was convicted of a felony with a maximum sentence of 25-years to life in prison and a mandatory minimum of 8-25 years in prison and a lifetime of quasi-totalitarian surveillance and persecution, the hideously draconian/Orwellian sentence imposed by and twice upheld under appeal by the judge for a first-offender convicted of a nonviolent and victimless and malum prohibitum felony – in a country in which legions and hordes of violent recidivist male criminals, nearly all blacks like Jordan Neely, are often free to commit dozens and scores of crimes without serving a day in prison.

And even if Abigail had accepted a plea-bargain in which she would have been sentenced to “only” 6-months in jail or 12-months with the chance to be released after “only” 6-months in hell, she would have still been punished far more severely than Jordan Neely and myriads of other violent and/or recidivist black criminals.

Even if she had not rejected all the plea-bargains, Abigail would have enslaved for at least 6-months and perhaps 9- or 12-months in a hellishly overcrowded jail. Despite his 44-arrests and 15- or 16 or 17-years of violence and criminality, Neely served only 4-months in jail

All that I read on her case and the terms of her punishment made me believe that she was sentenced to a lifetime of electronic parole-monitoring with an ankle-tether-“bracelet” she can never remove (not even when bathing, showering, sleeping). A correspondent sent me an email in which he said that the ankle-tether could be removed after 5-years if she didn’t commit any more crimes or violate the rules of her probation. I don’t know what’s true, factually, and I never will know, since the only people who know what’s true, including Abigail, won’t answer my questions.

But even if she was enjoined by law to wear the ankle-tether for “only” 5-years, this punishment is an outage and travesty, totally unnecessary to protect anyone from anything, since Abigail has never committed a violent or other mala in se crime in her life and never will and is not a “threat to society” or to anyone nor even a “danger to re-offend” for having sex with another young man under statutory age. Thus even forcing her to wear an ankle-tether for a month or week or day or hour is an outrage and travesty, gratuitous abuse and cruelty and degradation.

In contrast, despite his 44 arrests and long history of violence and criminality, I doubt that Neely was wearing an ankle-tether.when he harassed and terrorized women on the subway and was subdued by the ex-marine. Was he ever ordered to wear an ankle-tether -and if so, I’m sure he removed it many times but suffered little or no punishment for brazenly and frequently violating the conditions of his parole/probation.

And the ex-marine who subdued Neely, causing his death unintentionally, has been charged with murder and, if tried in New York, will almost surely be convicted and sentenced to 20-30 years in prison, If acquitted, or convicted of a lesser offense and sentenced to “only 5-yeaars in prison, there will be riots in NYC and nationwide.
