Hennepin Co. attorney wants convicted murderer’s sentence reduced

Hennepin County Prosecutor Mary Moriarty is seeking to reduce the life sentence of Kevin Taylor, who served as the driver in a 2011 shooting that killed 13-year-old Ray John Gomez. Moriarty argues the sentence is a miscarriage of justice since Taylor received more time than the actual shooters. Critics and political opponents claim the move is misguided and disrespectful to the victim's family.
