There was a hearing scheduled on January 13th to reconsider his sentence. The governor should have let that hearing take place,\u201d Bailey said:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>On top of that [Polis] made the announcement when he knew people would be focused on the tragic fires. So, in a way <strong>he also took advantage of them to provide coverage so he could announce this without much news coverage<\/strong>. You all should be upset about that. [Emphasis added]\n<p><strong>You also have to realize [Aguilera-Mederos] will not spend the entire 10 years the governor put his sentence at<\/strong>. He could get out in as little as five years. <strong>Would your brother\u2019s life be adequately compensated if he spent 1 1\/4 years per death in prison?<\/strong>&nbsp;[Emphasis added]\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><strong><em>John Binder is a reporter for Breitbart News.
