ROCHESTER, N.Y. – Does the punishment fit the crime? That’s what some people are asking after a former Rochester Police officer who raped a 13-year-old was sentenced.

Shawn Jordan was sentenced Wednesday to 10 weekends in jail and 10 years probation. He pleaded guilty to raping the teen in 2022 in South Bristol.

And this is why I will never trust the police. Not here. Not in any other place I have lived. Why does this monster get to keep on living and the rest of us suffer his abuse? Sure, keep on making "task forces" to bring the gun violence down in the city, but we are still going to rape your children. Fuck the entire force and "justice" system for not putting this guy behind bars. I seriously doubt Monroe county will punish him either.
Or the courts, who enable them. The entire Justice Punishment Industrial Complex deserves to be torn down and rebuilt from the ground up, complete with a well funded independent ethics and monitoring system.
