“No Sacred Cows and No One is Above the Law.”

Today’s outcome was not what Selgado and his legal team were anticipating. On the lower end of the punishment is a six-year prison term that has been established as precedence. On the upper end is life in prison for abetment to commit murder. Selgado’s ten year sentence takes into consideration the gravity of the crime he has committed. The judge also considered Selgado’s contribution to the criminal justice system through his legal practice. But Justice Pilgrim was also clear in pointing out that in the criminal justice system, there are no sacred cows and no one is above the law. We spoke with defense attorney Arthur Saldivar following the sentencing.
