Two of the bases Persky gave for the lenient sentence were Turner's character and naivety with alcohol, so a recent history of drug and alcohol abuse seem relevant to me. And if the defense can go after Emily's proclivity to be pass out drunk, I assume the prosecution also used Turner's assholeness in their arguments.
I doubt I will ever read a transcript of this trial to become informed, but my uninformed opinion is that Persky blew this one albeit lawfully.
Do we think Persky ordered Elmwood to keep Turner in protective custody or is that the warden's perogative?

Yeah, I just stare at my desk, but it looks like I'm working .I'd say in a given week I probably only do about fifteen minutes of real, actual, work. Peter Gibbons
