Yogi Yogi:
Tom Engel, a lawyer around these parts, well known as having a 'hate-on' for cops, is also Clyburns lawyer. Engel made an excellent point though when he asked, - in a televised interview after the sentencing- "Do you think that if the roles were reversed, and Clyburn laid a beating like this on Cst. Sandboe, that he would only have gotten six months house-arrest? No, more likeley that he would be going to prison for a very long time"!
too true Yogi.
