Dr. Phil

What Were They Thinking? When Sentencing Seems To Make No Sense (18x35)

Air date: Oct 25, 2019

Dr. Phil takes a closer look at what many call “outrageously lenient sentences” for serious, high-profile crimes. Dr. Phil meets a former superior court judge who lost his job after giving zero jail time to a man who strangled a woman unconscious and threatened to kill her. Also, a rape victim’s mother speaks out for the first time on daytime television about how her daughter’s rapist walked out of court with zero jail time.
