“FAILURE OF JUSTICE”: STATEMENT ON BREANN LEATH KILLER’S LENIENT SENTENCE

0

INDIANAPOLIS – Earlier today, Senator Braun released the following statement on the sentencing of Elliahs Dorsey to 25 years for attempted murder of his fiancé, 15 years of probation, and 5 years time-served for murdering mother and IMPD Officer Breann Leath in cold blood.

“It’s disgraceful that the killer of IMPD Officer Breann Leath is getting off with 25 years plus probation. Officer Leath’s killer should have received the maximum sentence possible, but instead he got less than half of what the state was asking for. That this man may see the outside of a jail cell again is a failure of justice. It’s my hope that Officer Leath’s family and colleagues can find solace in her memory and the gratitude of the state she served with honor and courage.” – Senator Mike Braun
