Ken Buck and signed by 18 other House Republicans. The letter was sent to Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Sen. Dick Durbin and Ranking Member Sen. Chuck Grassley. In it, the House Republicans call on the committee to look into three child pornography cases from when Jackson was Vice-Chair of the U.S. Sentencing Commission.<\/p>\n<p>The letter names the three cases and says \u201cfor every child pornography case in which Judge Jackson has ruled and for which records are available, she deviated from federal sentencing guidelines in favor of the offenders.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Three Cases Highlighted In The Letter:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>U.S. v. Hawkins, saying, \u201cJackson sentenced a man convicted of possessing child pornography to three months when sentencing guidelines called for 10 years.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>U.S v. Stewart, saying, \u201cJackson sentenced a man convicted of possessing thousands of images of child pornography, along with attempting to cross state lines to molest a 9-year-old girl, to 57 months when sentencing guidelines called for 97-121 months.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>U.S. v Chazin, saying, \u201cJackson sentenced the defendant to 28 months for possession of child pornography when sentencing guidelines called for 78-97 months.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\u201cJudge Jackson\u2019s pattern and practice of leniency on sentencing for child sex crimes is deeply troubling. Her record of special empathy towards criminals is the fulfillment of Democrats\u2019 soft-on-crime, defund the police movement that has caused a spike in crime across the nation,\u201d Buck told the Daily Caller. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2022\/03\/07\/joe-biden-ketanji-brown-jackson-leonard-jeffries-antisemitic-jewish\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">(RELATED: Biden\u2019s Supreme Court Nominee\u2019s Harvard Group Hosted A Speaker Criticized For Antisemitic Remarks)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>READ THE LETTER HERE:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"View (DAILY CALLER OBTAINED) -- Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson Confirmation Letter[100][6][13] on Scribd\" href=\"https:\/\/www.scribd.com\/document\/565894611\/DAILY-CALLER-OBTAINED-Judge-Ketanji-Brown-Jackson-Confirmation-Letter-100-6-13#from_embed\">(DAILY CALLER OBTAINED) \u2014 \u2026<\/a> by <a title=\"View Henry Rodgers&#039;s profile on Scribd\" href=\"https:\/\/www.scribd.com\/user\/527927298\/Henry-Rodgers#from_embed\">Henry Rodgers<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Missouri Republican Sen.
