What's wrong with this picture?

“A man who bit off his girlfriend's nose, an act described as "unforgivable" by a judge, has been sentenced to seven years in the state penitentiary.”

“John Abdo, 30, formerly of Wagner, was sentenced Monday for charges of aggravated assault and escape during a hearing at the Charles Mix County Courthouse. The charges stem from Jan. 7, 2016, when Abdo "bit the nose off" his girlfriend, court documents state. Judge Bruce Anderson sentenced Abdo to 15 years for the crime, but suspended eight.”

So John Abdo committed an "unforgivable act” when he disfigured his girl friend by biting off her nose and biting her all over her body as well, but it was not so unforgivable that the sentencing judge couldn’t knock eight years off the defendant’s fifteen year sentence as well as largely ignore the fact that he escaped custody, eh?

“Abdo was also sentenced to five years for escape, with four-and-a-half of these years suspended by Judge Anderson. The escape charges come after Abdo failed to return to jail following a job interview on Feb. 17, 2016, in which he was released on furlough from the Charles Mix County Jail. He was found and arrested on June 10, 2016, according to Deputy Charles Mix County State's Attorney Scott Podhradsky. Podhradsky described the harm caused to the victim's body as "horrific." Along with the victim's nose bitten off, Podhradsky said the doctor described the countless bite wounds to her torso, arms, legs and face more like "gnawing" than a bite.”

Apparently John Abdo has some redeeming character traits despite his long record criminal behavior. Like he writes and he shares his passion for his Native American culture.

Clearly Judge Anderson took into account the fact that many members of oppressed minority groups are simply unable to scrupulously follow the same rules of conduct as white people when he pronounced sentence.

Naturally if an Anglo white man had bitten his girl friend’s nose off they’d lock that fucker up for good and throw away the key, wouldn’t they? What the hell is the matter with you? Being a writer and having a passion for sharing your Arуan culture probably wouldn’t help you gain any clemency either, huh? Oh well.

“During the hearing, an email from the South Dakota Department of Corrections was added to the record noting Abdo's previous time incarcerated. He was released six separate times, and each of these times, he violated parole. Judge Anderson took the email in consideration, stating that any probation wouldn't be fruitful.”

"It takes a while for people to be squared away. You're not squared away," Judge Anderson said to Abdo. " ... These are unforgivable, but not something that we can't work past."

“Anderson told Abdo to think about what kind of role model he'd like to be, and praised his writing abilities. Abdo created a website, in which he writes blog posts and sharing his passion for his Native American culture. His attorney shared snippets of his post during the sentencing. "I can tell a couple of things from John. He likes to write and he's very proud of his heritage," Goehring said. "He is sincere in trying to be helpful to the Native American people."
