A two-time child molester will spend the next 15 to 20 years in prison under a sentence handed down Tuesday.
Douglas County District Judge Joseph Troia sentenced Harold Shipley Jr. to 30 to 40 years in prison – a term that is cut in half under state sentencing guidelines.
The 51-year-old Shipley had pleaded no contest to attempted sexual assault of a child for contact he had with a 7-year-old neighbor girl. He faced up to 50 years in prison – or 25 years real time.
Prosecutor Molly Keane, a deputy Douglas County attorney, had urged the judge to give Shipley the maximum term.

I work for the Omaha Police Dept as an IST. The child victim unit deserves praise for their work every single day.

1. IST? What is that?
I don't think these repeat offender molesters should be released. They're not going to be rehabilitated. They're sick and they're going to do it again.

He's misleading the DUmmies into thinking that he is a member of the police dept. Someone should ask the socialist if he has the powers of arrest.

Information Services Technician means he answers the phone.
No, but they had to label the ends of the handset "listen" and "speak".
Something tells me they had to paint the telephone handset yellow to look like a banana to train him into picking it up.

Big deal. I remember when all the gas stations were full service and all employees wore uniforms. Texaco even had their slogan of "Trust your car to the man that wears the star".
Janitors for most companies are provided uniforms, too.
The big guy has a fixation about wearing a uniform of some sort--thus Freudianly betraying his totalitarian longings--uniforms on his job, faux uniforms at these reunions of long-ago third-tier television celebrities.
That phenomenon, I don't understand; I myself have never taken a job requiring wearing a uniform, or only rarely, a name-tag. It all seems to dehumanize one. If I can't wear my own clothes, forget it. And if someone wants to know who I am, well, they can ask.
Of course, at "high security" places, such as those times when I was a supervisor for First Data Resources (financial services) or the government, while a uniform wasn't required, one of those plastic-coated name-tags was. In those cases, I kept the name-tag inside a pocket, and when spotted by a security guy, pulled it out to flash at him, and then put it back into the pocket.
That wasn't exactly kosher, but I got away with it.
If it'd become an issue, I would've quit the job; no job is worth dehumanization.
<<<Had to wear a uniform in the US Navy. :-) :-)
Yeah, and I always wondered how I'd be able to handle that, having to wear a uniform.
In myself, the fear of having to wear a uniform is deeply-set, and animal-like in its revulsion and terror; it's never happened, but I do believe if someone was trying to push a uniform on me, I'd get violent.
Probably, as with the same fear of red-headed women, it's from some long-ago trauma in childhood or something; I'm very adamant about the "right" to wear my own stuff.
There is however a rational aesthetic reason too; I just come across best in my own clothes, usually brown or grey or blue in various shades, while most "work" (non-military) uniforms are pukingly disgusting colors.
And polyester crap too, like what Skippy seems to prefer.
And ill-fitting.
I've always harbored a suspicion that bosses of maintenance men, convenience store clerks, and real-estate agents purposely want their people to look like clowns.
My job provides uniforms for them that want them, but they aren't mandatory. Dark blue pants with a light blue shirt. They're some sort of synthetic material so I don't wear them. I wear blue jeans and a T-shirt in summer and a long sleeved denim shirt in winter. I want something that will catch fire not melt to my skin.
He just HAD to add the "Uniformed" to the beginning of his title. :whatever:Did he mean uniformed or uninformed?
I wonder if uniformed Steve wears that Combat Infantry Badge to work.
