Maybe, the cops who murdered people on Danziger bridge in New Orleans during Katrina were sentenced for a long time (first 40+ years for most of them) then had their sentence reduced to 10 years for some with time served.

I had no idea that this happened.

How did they end up getting a retrial? It's like saying, "ok, the people don't like you killing innocents trying to survive after a disaster. If we give you another chance, choose the 10 year plea deal. K?"

So infuriating.
