Nee’s sentence debated online

Nee’s expected sentence debated:

This is an article from the Patriot-Ledger newspaper in Quincy, Mass. which shows that the expected sentence of Joe Nee is being predicted online. It seems that I’m not the only one that thinks Nee will get a slap on the wrist.

“Nobody ever gets the max when they are that young,” said one comment posted by someone using the screen name Lost Cause. “At the most he will get approximately 2 years, and after good behavior and any time served, he will not spend much time at all in the land of forced love.”

Speaking of me, I was quoted in the article as well…

TheTrenchcoat Chronicles is Web site that says it specializes in following school shootings.

A poster there, using the screen name Trench Reynolds, said people seeking “true justice” should not celebrate just yet.

“If this is the only charge that Nee is convicted of he probably won’t see that much time,” the poster said. “Personally I’ll be surprised if he even sees the inside of a jail because of his connections.”

And I still stand behind that.

I wonder if the Patriot-Ledger used my quote because I was saying what they wanted to.

    Another victim of media and public speculation. I feel sorry for Joe’s family. I agree with his sister’s statements that this conviction is sending the wrong message- now kids are gonna be afraid to come forward and we will see more tragedies because of less prevention. And when his mother said how the police would not have known about this if it wasn’t for Joe speaking up, I couldn’t agree more. You all wold have been shell shocked and infuriated had something tragic actually taken place and you found out that someone could have prevented it. You are throwing stones at the wrong person.

    The only reason Nee came forward was to implicate Tobin Kerns before Kerns could implicate Nee.
