Arkansas authorities are searching for a man who pleaded guilty to murder and was given to 22 years in prison, but didn’t return to begin his sentence.

Anthony Antwan Millbrooks accepted a plea deal Aug. 12 for first-degree murder and was sentenced to 22 years in the Arkansas Department of Corrections for the 2010 incident, KAIT-TV reported. A judge ordered Millbrooks to return Aug. 22 to begin serving, but he didn’t appear.

“It’s just something I’ve never heard of. It’s brand new to me and I’ve been a sheriff for 26 years. I mean, this guy’s a killer. Things like that shouldn’t happen. It’s one of those unbelievable moments. We did not agree at all. He had a long criminal history and to allow him out is beyond me,” St. Francis County Sheriff Bobby May told KAIT.

I thought first degree murder is punishable by life in prison or death. I would also think a plea bargain for first degree murder is life no matter what. No?

Extend your thanks to the liberal judge.
