80 years seems a bit much, but I guess I can’t say I’d want him in my neighborhood after he got out.

he shot a gun into the bedroom of a 10 year old girl because her parents worked for a political party he didn't like. And 3 other homes.

Yeah, shitty. I mean, I don’t think he was aiming for her right? Either way, I don’t think there’s much rehabilitation for someone who is randomly shooting at houses.

Depends on how he acted in court. He could have gone full Scooby Doo villain and said he would have gotten away if it wasn't for the cops.

While i'm not sure the reasoning, there's always things a defendent can do to worsen the outcome of their potential sentence. -That said, even if this guy got railroaded, IDGAF.
