Kansas judge cuts prison terms for two Kansas felons
In Hutchinson a judge reduced a woman's sentence from 15 years to five years eight months for abusing her three children, leaving one nearly vegetative. Another man serving time for sex with two 14 year olds had six years shaved off. The rulings follow a Kansas Supreme Court decision ruling upward departures from guidelines unconstitutional, prompting re sentencing across the state.
