Two men have been charged with lighter sentences stemming from the October attack of a nun. Mr Lindeman and Mr. Wells were charged to lesser crimes then the 17 count indictment. They pleaded guilty to sodomy and burglary charges.
Judge Harold J. Rothwax of the State Supreme Court ruled over the precedings. Max Lindeman was sentenced for 10 to 20 years on charges of sodomy in the first degree. Harold Wells was charged with burglary in the first degree. He will be sentenced to 5 to 15 years in prison. The 23 year old Lindeman and the 22 year old Wells got off easy for their brutal crime on a nun.
The two men lived together at 62 East 125th Street in Harlem. The attack also happened in Harlem at 456 East 116th Street at the Sisters of Charity covenant.
The 30 year old nun wishes to stay anonymous and does not want to take part in any more legal actions against the two men.
The terrible attack on October 10th left 27 crosses cut in the womans body. She was raped, beat, and robbed.
A crime like this should of had a much harsher penalty. Assistant District Attorney Linda Farnstein accepted the plea bargain.
My God, what evil runs in the streets. These spawn of satan perhaps will receive justice while locked up. Maybe their fellow prisoners can beat, rape and sodomise them. Well harlem is a bad place to grow up and be in. Still, the nun was only in that rat hole trying to help the likes of the two who repaid her kindness and love with their actions.
