  • If you believe that prison (or any criminal sentence) is for rehabilitation and restoration instead of punishment, what’s the hopeful outcome here?

    I’m sure the guy already isn’t going to want to work with real guns on any future movie set. Sending him to a rich white guy prison for 18 months won’t change that. Nor will it change the laws or practices of what’s happening on movie sets. And it won’t bring any restitution to the victims’ family unless they, in turn, sue.

    Seems like the best outcome here would be a plea deal that involves pleading “no contest”, barred from using real firearms, and committing to financial restitution for the family.
