White privilege is becoming too obvious in the United States. Many black suffers the stigma of false imprisonments and unfair justice system while low live white Americans can easily get away with horrendous crimes.
Kyle Rittenhouse who killed 2 men during the Kenosha riot was acquitted of five counts of criminal charges because of the deceiving power of the white tears, now another white man will be spared from imprisonment after he pleaded guilty for raping 4 teens.
Stunned victims and onlookers broke down in tears, with some even vomiting, when a 20-year-old New York State man who pleaded guilty to raping four teenage girls in his parents' home was sentenced to just eight years probation by an elderly judge set to retire next month, for his heinous crimes.
The case is even more shocking because convicted Christopher Belter's parents are facing charges they groomed their son's victims by plying them with alcohol and marijuana.
'If Chris Belter was not a white defendant from a rich and influential family, it is my belief… he would surely have been sentenced to prison,' prosecuting attorney Steven Cohen, representing one of the victims, told DailyMail.com of the decision.
Niagara County Court Judge Matthew J. Murphy III, 69, told Belter on Tuesday that prison time would be 'inappropriate' and instead ordered him to register as a sex offender.
Belter had pleaded guilty to felony charges including third-degree rape and attempted first-degree sexual abuse, and two misdemeanor charges of second-degree sexual abuse.
But the Niagara County judge decided against a prison sentence. Belter could have been facing up to eight years in prison for his crimes. Prosecutors do not have the ability to appeal Murphy's decision.
Belter assaulted his four victims between February 2017 and August 2018, with three aged 16 and one aged 15 at the time of the assaults at his family's 'party house' in a wealthy Lewiston neighborhood, just a few miles from Niagara Falls.
State police claim that Belter's mother and real estate lawyer Tricia Vacanti, 50; his stepfather Gary Sullo, 56, and a family friend Jessica M. Long, 42, allegedly groomed the four victims by supplying alcohol and marijuana.
One of Belter's victims was heard crying as the judge read out his verdict Tuesday, while Cohen, representing one of the victims, told DailyMail.com that his client threw up after the decision.
Judge Murphy told Belter that his eight-year probation would 'be like a sword hanging over your head for the next eight years.'
'I agonized — I'm not ashamed to say that I actually prayed over what is the appropriate sentence in this case, because there was great pain. There was great harm. There were multiple crimes committed in the case,' Murphy told the shocked court room.
