Army Post Road

     Today, Maurice Clarett pled guilty to concealed weapons and robbery charges and was sentenced to 3 1/2 years in prison. Last year, Pierre Pierce pled to third-degree burglary, assault with intent to commit sexual abuse, false imprisonment and fourth-degree criminal mischief and is out of prison already.
     Why has Pierre Pierce twice been given a near-free pass for rape and Maurice Clarett is spending more time in prison on only this first incident? Clarett robbed two people and ran from the police. Serious crimes. Pierce raped one woman so viciously her injuries precluded her continuing as a collegiate athlete after that point. Subsequently he held another woman hostage in her apartment at knife point and threatened her physically and sexually. Heinous crimes. Heinous crimes that we apparently aren’t really going to hold him responsible for.
