Trial court considered the required statutory provisions in sentencing defendant to a six-year term for involuntary manslaughter in violation of R.C. 2903.04(A), which carried a possible penalty of 3-10 years of imprisonment, as it was within range of sentencing statutes, was not the maximum, and met the overriding purposes of the sentencing provisions. Although resource burdens are relevant sentencing considerations under former R.C. 2929.13(A) and newly enacted language in R.C. 2929.11, a sentencing court is not required to elevate resource conservation above seriousness and recidivism factors. Defendants proportionality and consistency challenges to sentence were not raised below and were waived.

Let's say hypothetically he did it," he says about [John Lewis]. "Let's say hypothetically that many of the young black men-too many-in and around Philadelphia are committing similar crimes. There are two explanations as to why young black men commit a disproportionate number of crimes. One is the lack of opportunity due to the legacy of slavery and current racism and discrimination, or that young black men are genetically predisposed to crime. Clearly they're not genetically predisposed to crime. So what if a John Lewis or anybody like him was able to graduate from high school like many white boys and get a decent job like many white boys?
