Good. I hope he serves as a terrible warning.
It's about time!
Former Palm Beach Gardens Police Officer Nouman Raja, the first Florida cop convicted for an on-duty killing since 1989, was sentenced today to 25 years in prison for the death of Corey Jones.
Raja fatally shot Jones, a 31-year-old local drummer, on the side of I-95 in October 2015.
Raja's case seemed to be a slam-dunk for prosecutors, even in Florida, where it's typically next to impossible to convict cops for anything they do on-duty. But Raja's crime was that egregious: A jury convicted him of manslaughter and attempted first-degree murder last month. His sentence is actually the shortest amount of prison time he could have received, because he was facing a max sentence of life behind bars. The Sun Sentinel first reported the news of his sentence.
