“Rapist Too Important for Prison?”

So it seems, from this news account. “Judge Rayford Means . . . said he factored in McIntosh’s important work with stroke victims and brain injuries, and sentenced McIntosh to a year of house arrest and 12 years’ probation.”

There is some uncertainty about the facts of the case, but the man did plead guilty to sexual assault and possession of a controlled substance (presumably the sodium pentobarbital that the man was accused of slipping the woman to knock her out). Seems quite troubling, if the news account is accurate.
