Law professor Mark Osler commented for the Star Tribune on the sentencing of former Brooklyn Center police officer Kim Potter.
From the article: "The judge could have given a sentence four times as long and chose not to," Osler said.
Although it may seem short, Osler said, "it's a very real punishment. It is not one that certainly the victim's family hoped for. It's not one that sends a message about violence against Black men, but it is one that offers real punishment."
