Shanley gets 12 to 15 years

[Boston Globe — Front Page](http://www.boston.com/news/globe/pageone:) “CAMBRIDGE — Defrocked priest Paul R. Shanley was sentenced to 12 to 15 years in prison yesterday before a roomful of alleged clergy sexual abuse victims, who declared the conclusion to his criminal trial a step toward collective justice.”

That’s it??!?!?! Well, I guess in reality, that’s a life sentence (with his life only lasting a few months, that is).

Offline for a couple of days

I won’t be making any posts here for the next couple of days. I’m off to Florida to help my mother move into her new house. Stay tuned here for updates and pictures after I get her new wireless network up and running (for those of you that know her… yep, you heard me right [[:-)]]).
