This young man, Adrian Gaskins received 40 years in prison in 2016, at the age of 17, for breaking into someone's home. He is not, nor was he ever

A violent person. He did break the law by breaking and entering but 40 years is too much time for breaking and entering. His family is heartbroken. I spoke to his mother last year and was almost in tears when she told me the story of this young man who was once a high school football player and made good grades, and a second chance was all that he needed. 40 years for a nonviolent crime.

The agg robbery, which they called agg robbery was because he had a weapon on him when the cops found him, but according to his mom, he didn't use the weapon. The harass public servant charge, I think he was charged with that because he spit at a police officer, which is a bad thing, but does that warrant 40 years?
