NAACP wants probe into bandit sentences

[Midnight Mike]

Way to go NAACP, nice to use the power & influence of your organization to defend career criminals. This has nothing to do about race....

Michael Chastang, 28, was sentenced to 10 years for being the mastermind of the robbery, and bank teller Bennie Allen III, 23, who pleaded guilty, was sentenced to five years. Both men are black. Chastang also is serving 15 years on unrelated drug-trafficking charges and Allen was on probation for a drug conviction.

Last month, Cobb County Superior Court Judge Mary Staley sentenced 20-year-old Heather Johnston to 10 years probation after she pleaded guilty to a charge of theft by taking in the 2007 heist. The judge gave 19-year-old Ashley Miller two years in jail and eight years probation. Both women are white.

Gender, maybe...definitely not race.

Let's get the NAAWP on this. Oh wait, that would be considered a hate organization.
