Relatives of a teenager shot to death in Evanston in 2007 were angered Wednesday when a judge sentenced the killer to just 10 years in prison.  …

Cook County Circuit Court Judge Larry Axelrood also sentenced Wright to five years in prison for aggravated discharge of a weapon related to the crime. The sentences are to be served consecutively.  …

The day of the shooting, Pickett’s brother had been injured in an altercation with several other people, prosecutors said. Later that day, Wright went to the 1900 block of Dodge Avenue in Evanston — blocks from the high school — armed with a 9 mm pistol and shot Pickett three times after a second altercation between the two groups of teens.Wright shot at the other teens as they were fleeing, authorities said.  …

Wright has been in jail since his arrest shortly after the murder and with time served could be released from prison in as little as seven years.(Full story here.)

So kid’s in a fight.  Goes home and gets a gun.  Returns to fight some more.  Shoots one dead and at others.  10 years!!  What?!  Moreover, it was one-half the sentence that the kid could have received.  So my questions is, if premeditated murder of one and the attempted murder of others doesn’t warrant the maximum, the what does?

Judge Larry Axelrood, you just made the list of Judges we need to remove.
