Symphony

Since I heard the story of Elisabeth Witte, the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra player who was slain by her ex-husband, every time I hear the word “symphony,” my heart breaks for her. What a tragic and horrifying story.

Doesn’t Add Up

Jeffrey A. Asbury:
Crime: Hopped up on coke, killed wife in Fox Lake’s unstaffed police station.
Sentence: 30 years in prison with extended supervision thereafter. (He’ll be 70 when his sentence is up, but he may get out early).

Ezequiel Lopez-Quintero:
Crime: Hopped up on coke and tequila, killed Kenosha deputy, Frank Fabiano, in cold blood.
Sentence: Life without parole.

Asbury should have received the same sentence as Lopez-Quintero. He has no business getting back out on the streets - even if somehow he serves the full sentence (does anybody actually serve the full term of their sentence these days?).
