So, Ambroz did 3 years for a $10 bad check, and 3 months for murdering a 17 year old child. Wow!

He lived his life for over half a century and then was sentenced under 1969 statutes for CONSPIRACY, and given good time AND time served??!! I am outraged for the family. He robbed her of her entire life because he didn't want to go back to prison. He literally got exactly what he wanted! May he burn in hell.

So let me get this straight - they limited the sentence to two years because they had to follow 1969 law - but cut it in half using CURRENT law??

There should be some kind of additional hefty penalty if you hide your crime for decades! That alone shows no remorse nor rehabilitation! This wasn't justice for ANYBODY 😡

It’s not a justice system folks. It’s a system of laws. My heart breaks for the family. Rip MK.

What kind of sentence is this? If he did in 1969 and caught in the same year, then perhaps they use the law back in 1969. The thing that he has been elusive till 2024, he should be sentenced according to this era's law! This is worst than not catching him!
