The owner of a meat business in western Michigan has been ordered to pay nearly $1,200 after a 17-year-old worker lost his hand in a grinder.
Ionia County Judge Ray Voet said the accident was a "horrible tragedy" but didn't warrant jail or probation for Darin Wilbur, WOOD-TV reported.
...
"Two months later, we wouldn't even be here," the judge said, noting that the teen soon would have turned 18 years old.
"Ionia County is a farming county, and I know a lot of people in this county view children working, sometimes around dangerous machinery, as part of growing up," Voet said.
wow fuck that judge
Maybe those people that see that as part of growing up are fucking stupid. Did Voet ever think of that?
So just because he'd possibly leave the community in a few months, he doesn't deserve justice?
Lol you can’t tailor laws to the area like that, can you?
A hand is only worth $1200?
I can't actually seem to open the article but that was my first thought lol "nearly $1200"...
If that's true, it's an absolute travesty...
nearly $1200
Your username has never been more relevant.
To a conservative, yes.
$1200 huh? I’d pay some crackheads to shit on the judge’s lawn over the course of a few days. Bonus pay for leaving a floater in his jacuzzi.
You're a terrible person, huh? Good to know. Hopefully you grow out of that after middle school.
