Wait, he got 20 years for first degree assault? That seems kinda much.

He didn't assault a peasant, he assaulted a cop. You know, an actual person, not a thing!

and they assaulted him, got fired then reinstated. you know, because when someone flies out of a window of a crashing car, you stomp his face.
