A good guy who did bad things… I agree with Mrs. Pinckney.
Most all of us have some good in us. Hell, even Alex Murdaugh has some good traits. But Cory Fleming is not “a good guy.” HE IS A CRIMINAL.
Apparently you don’t understand what “con artist” and “criminal” mean. Murdaugh, Laffitte and Fleming are skilled con artists and criminals. Ted Bundy was described as a “nice guy”. “Nice” people commit atrocities. Cory Fleming, with fake expressions of remorse, is not a nice guy. He’s sorry he got caught. And if they hadn’t gotten caught, they’d still be committing their crimes. What is wrong with you?
Fleming was treated harshly compared to Laffitte by the same judge. I get it that as a client lawyer it is a worse professional lapse than the one count implies. There is still something unbalanced about the sentence of 4 vs 7 for Laffitte related to the charges, the lack of remorse and the very large $ settlement that lurks in the background of that case…
I wasn’t there, but does anyone agree with me that Judge Gergel’s sentencing of Russell Lafitte and Corey Fleming might have been influenced by his opinion of Eric Bland ?
Another “handshake sentence” for yet another Murdaugh crime syndicate actor. Laffitte and Fleming should have each received 20-year minimum in federal prison. This is not anything close to the “hammer falling” — it’s a bad joke. Murdaugh and his co-conspirators took great advantage of a deeply embedded good ol’ boy system to lie, steal, cheat and con trusting people out of millions. They’ll get soft time. Justice is in broken bits in this country and this is proof.
Because he’s human, Judge Gergel might have found it HIGHLY annoying that after relentlessly defending Greg Leon and portraying him at a “great human being” Eric Bland was in his courtroom telling the world that anything said about Lafitte or Fleming being “good guys” should be overlooked (and in fact demonized). I know I would have if I were in the judge’s robes.
Just saying. Just saying.
