A former sheriff’s deputy in Tennessee accused of raping a 14-year-old girl struck a plea deal with prosecutors last week that keeps him out of prison and from having to register as a sex offender, his lawyer says.

A former sheriff’s deputy in Tennessee accused of raping a 14-year-old girl struck a plea deal with prosecutors last week that keeps him out of prison and from having to register as a sex offender, his lawyer confirmed Monday.

Ballin confirmed that Beck was accused of raping a 14-year-old girl multiple times and that his guilty plea means he does not have to register as a sex offender. “This was a best-interest plea,” Ballin said. “He decided that he didn’t want to take a chance to have 12 people decide the case. … Mr. Beck maintained his innocence all the way through, even last Monday when the judge accepted his guilty plea.”

IBeANewsie White privilege?

That's why they shouldn't have the death penalty in states like this because they can't even try and get the simpler ones right. I'm by no means implying this is a simple case but there is no plea deals for child rapist, ever. Total miscarriage of justice.

Why is it one or the other why not both

Why could he do a plea deal? Just charge the man, isn’t that the law? Offences, especially sexual on underage, should be immediate jail time! How can he call the shots? Isn’t her rights & well-being more important?

Absolute bullshit

White privilege This is not justice

This is just terrible...

Just like that he gets out of it. Some of our poor men sit in prison cells for the duration of their lives for accusations like this. Wow! It must be nice to be privileged. Some men are sitting in prison that are actually innocent, but he walks free😡

If you want to see a picture of this police officer you can see him on Dr. Rashad Richeys YouTube channel. He also has a picture of the DA and judge.

Ridiculous blue discount bullshit!

What Justice system?! 😡

🤮🤮🤮

Justice in America…?

This just another example of how our justice system is bad

“…with liberty and justice for all…”

If he raped a 14 year old why shouldn't he go to jail, because he's a cop he should be held to higher standards

What? I see racial prejudice on loudspeakers here.

And what about Justice ? Judge agreed ?

But if that sick Fk pedophile got her pregnant she’d be forced to carry & birth it or go to jail FU TN GovBillLee TNGOP FU sheriff deputy

This is NOT justice! This is absolutely disgusting to read!

Only white men get such a sweet deal

How nice to see our judicial system holding all crime offenders accountable to the same standards as everybody else.........., Unless you're white, cis gendered, straight, and part of the allegedly corrupt judicial system. 😑 itsbeenzerodays

Speechless!!! No wonder police are losing respect. Corruption legalized. Sick.

Tennessee...White...Cop... a slap on the wrist should suffice.

PsychicHealerC Sick

How is that friggn’ possible. Any other man that did that would be in jail. He should never have gotten a plea bargain. IT’S BULLSHIT!!!!

They protect themselves but not the victim.

I just don't get it. afrdiasporanews kengandanation DrMumbiSeraki RealDLHughley DillardVicki rickeysmiley rolandsmartin

What kind of deal is that?!?!

So what's his punishment? - someone shaking his finger and saying 'naughty, naughty?'

WTH?

What did they do? Give him a lollipop 🍭 and send him home? SHE WAS 14!!! HE ADMITTED GUILT!!

Where’s the justice?

I am sorry did Marsha Blackburn say something and I missed it?

Disgusting

Remember folks. Crime is only serious if you are black, poor, unconnected, ....

How is this justice 😒

Prosecutors should be fired, for making this deal with this monster.

He'll be the next chief of police

So at this point, what's the difference between some dudes with guns or some other dudes with guns telling everyone what to do? Legislature? Scribbles on pieces of paper? A badge? A capitulation to modern day slavery? A pledge to a piece of cloth?

Weak prosecution lawyers..... fire these people. Bet they would have done a better job if it was their daughter who got raped.

This why I’m a cynical nihilist. This world is not redeemable. Just look at the comments.

'What' are you kidding me; are they pulling a Mitch McConnell again!

This just another instance of a DA protecting a policeman. Nothing to see here.

MurielVieux This is what births vigilante justice.

White Power baby, White Power.

Thats bs he needs to be put in prison and they need to let big bubba have his way with him

Sick you Folks over there sure have a weird corrupt way of dealing this something so serious..what about the poor victim I hope they sue them

Same in Hialeah, FL

WTF , is the judge on drugs ?

How is that justice?!

Sick chump sick laws n sick. Ppl

And this is why nothing is done to even begin correcting the problem. Grown adults taking innocence away from children makes for a unhappy adult. Children should not live in fear.

Let me guess. He’s a white dude. Because ToxicMasculinity is a thing now!

WTF

Lemme guess.... white male privilege.

Yep, sounds about “white.” Privileged white.

What the heck she is a child!!!

Was Los Angeles County DA, GeorgeGascon the DA? 😅😂🤣

It would have been different if women were judge and prosecutors. It's a disgrace.

WTH? Total BS

If it was a black man he would have got 50 yrs in prison

that's crazy justice.

VoteBluePA Tennessee, one small step above India or Pakistan.

And we all wonder why there is vigilantism. Gun, badge = God , something just ain’t right

What a travesty of justice!

VoteBluePA 😤

WTF?! Was the victim his sister…🙄

Wow 😳😳😳😳, that is horrible....

I’m a very pro police person but this seems a bit ridiculous to me

Business as usual for those in the criminal justice system, from prosecutors and judges. I'm betting Sheriff rapist doesn't have an ounce of melanin. 😏
