Sooo...
I guess that means he gets 3 hots and a cot for 6 years, on the taxpayer's dime, and gets to skip on child support?
He'll still owe the child support, but his ability to pay it will be greatly reduced.
How does that help the child that needs support?
It doesn't. Our criminal justice system is really just a punishment system. Whenever this guy gets out of prison, he'll have his wages garnished and the money that he owes will be paid back. It doesn't help the kid now.
Assuming he doesn't get sent back to prison.
Nope, he's dead. Life sentence is already served.
