The July 4th Knucklehead of the Day Marathon Part Four

Our fourth winners are Russell County Circuit Court Judge George Greene and Assistant District Attorney Max Smith. They get the award for the following

A Phenix City man was sentenced to seven years in prison after pleading guilty to the sexual abuse of a 12-year-old boy.

Arzander Hinton, 29, received the seven-year sentence Tuesday before Russell County Circuit Court Judge George Greene. He entered the plea in March, said Assistant District Attorney Max Smith.

"He sexually abused a 12-year-old boy," Smith said. "He's already been convicted of doing this stuff before."

Hinton inappropriately touched the boy while both were at his 802-A Sixth Place South address in August. The child eventually told his mother when she noticed he was acting differently.

Smith and Hinton's attorney agreed to the seven-year sentence, Smith said. If the case had gone to trial, the boy would have had to testify about the offense, he said.

Hinton could have received two to 20 years for the offense because it was his second. He received four years for first-degree sexual abuse in January 2004 after he pleaded guilty to inappropriately touching an 8-year-old girl in October 1999.

Just further proof of how busted our legal system is. This sicko has raped children twice, and he'll be back out in seven years or less. Anyone want Hinton in their neighborhood? Sure we should make him the next door neighbor of Judge Greene and Smith. Want to guess what they would think of that?

For failing to protect the public they are paid to serve, Russell County Circuit Court Judge George Greene and Assistant District Attorney Max Smith are our fourth knucklehead winners of the day.
