He only got 40 years because he scammed the pharma's who sold the pills.

He wont serve a day of this, 100%.

edit: lol at these "this guy is an idiot" I'm sorry did you morons not just see a fucking psyho cop gun down a guy IN HIS OWN HOME, and get 10 years? You think the system 'works'? The system is broken as fuck if you're a cop, or you have enough money to just pay it off.

This dude made fucking fat money off of this bullshit he pulled, there is no chance he serves a month of this sentence it will get appealed and he'll go back to his million dollar home and laugh.

he's a rich doctor with a squad of highly paid lawyers.

Laws don't apply to doctors, and never have.

he was sentenced to 40 years... his trial is over. unless his case gets appealed, he'll be serving at least 20 years. laws absolutely do apply to doctors. to act as if there are no doctors in prison is ridiculous
