>> "He shot and killed his neighbor, Timothy Newman, a man who had repeatedly challenged Campbell over his access-blocking proclivities. Campbell first claimed it was self-defense because Newman threatened him, but last year he finally pleaded guilty to negligent homicide. He’s now on probation, under a 20 years suspended prison sentence."
Just WTF? This is absolutely insane. Other people end up in the chamber for such things (not that I like the death penalty or other excessive punishment, quite the opposite). The sign that if you're rich enough you can get off with murder is a threat to the core stability of society.

Plea deals when you're rich are a completely different thing than when you're poor apparently.
The casualness with which such a rich asshole deprives thousands of people of their rights without any fear for consequences is absolutely disgusting.
