Suspended ssentence stuns some jurors in rape case.
The Daily Oklahoman ^ | 03/22/2006 | Chad Previch

PAWNEE - Members of a Pawnee County jury are upset a judge suspended sentence to a man convicted of raping a 13-year-old.

The Jury had recommended a 30-year prison sentence.

One upset juror drove to the Pawnee County Courthouse and returned a check for $167.90 he received for serving on the jury.

"They didn't know what to do with it," said Bruce Funkhouser.

"Justice was not served by this at all," Funkhouser said.

The white-hot debate surrounding the Iraq war coincides with the release for an angry new movie called “V for Vendetta.” A vulgar, ham-fisted attempt at political protest, “V” refers to America as the world’s leper colony, casts a conservative Christian as the film’s 21st century Hitler, blames America’s war for the start of a British police state, and cast a terrorist as its hero.
