Victim were both enrolled. Jean well have live
Team Coverage
, but first were joined by legal analyst david are are ruoff. One year in jail, but also hes been released on bail pending his appeal. So tonight owen pla bree are not be behind bars. Thats correct. He wont have to serve any portion of his sentence until his appeal has run its entire course and that can take up to 18 months. Jean so this process could go on and on . Yes. Theyll file a notice after peel within the next 30 days and then the
Supreme Court
will issue a scheduling other from there, and months. Josh one of the big components of this is the fact that he needs to register as a sex offender, and some charge that amountings to a life sentence. Does he have any resource now with this sentence . With respect to the sex offender registration, hell be what they call a tier two offender. So 15 years after completion of the sentence for that specific offense, he can ask the judge for permission to get off the list. Whether that will ever happen 15 or 16 years from now, we dont know. Jean what do you make of of the one year in the county jail sentence . The
New Hampshire
coalition against domestic and
Sexual Violence
called it a small consolation in their press conference just a moment ago. I understand. Im not surprised by the sentence. I would have been surprised if he had received a state prison sentence because of the sentenced. The judge was very careful about parsing out that he wasnt sentencing him for convictions upon which he was acquitted. So, but 12 months is a long time, and its still fairly close to what the state was asking for. They were just asking for it to be a little more time but at the state prison, with time off if he was able to complete that sex offender treatment program. Josh if youre the defense and youre putting together this aappeal, what kind of different routes may they take that would differ from the one that led to a conviction and a year behind bars . Well, everything is on the table with respect to the ateal. Theyll be able to take a look at all the motions that are filed, all the rulings the judge made and reargue those again on appeal. Mr. Labrie will also probably have the chance to ask another lawyer to review to see whether or not his defense attorney, mr. Carney, provided adequate representation of him in the defense of this case. So there are all sorts of things that are
Still Available
to him over the next 18 months. Jean we heard during the victim impact statements, members of the victims family saying make a statement, send a message about what happened here. Does the judge factor that into the sentencing . Absolutely. We call that deterrence, specific and general deterrence. Thats one of of the things i concerned about was sending a message to other young men that are out there that are similar to mr. Labrie. And its a strong statement that if youre convicted of these types crimes that you will face the consequences and go to jail. Regardless of what you already lost in terms of going to harvard and, you know, the stigma that attaches to these convictions. Josh the timeline associated with this, this has been a high profile case, gotten
National Media
attention. I would imagine that both the prosecution and the defense will be very methodical and take their time to make sure that no mistakes are made and that this whole thing doesnt blow up in either of their faces, especially the prosecution. Through an apeople. Absolutely. Keep in mind the
Attorney Generals Office
will handle the appeal for the state. They handle all the appeals, so the case will get transferred to them for hand l. Whether mr. Darn carney stays on as the attorney for the appeal remains to be seen. Josh a year, year and a half, two years . 18 months to two years. Jean owen labrie is being released on bail pending his appeal. If he were to serve that one year in the house of corrections, would it be a full year . No, it wouldnt be. For house of corrections sentences they actually get a third of the time off if they behave themselves, so it would be eight months behind the wall. Jean from your experience and to our viewers benefit, whats the difference between serving time in the state prison and ebb serving time at the house of corrections . Both facilities are very, very different. State prison is where a lot of hard core criminals are, a l. Repeat offenders, a lot of people that are there for very serious felonies. The county correctional facilities tend to be, house small time offenders, and people that are awaiting trial. Josh quickly, oneyear sentence for the conviction, is this considered a harsh sentence or is this pretty much the line with what you would expect . I think its in line with what i would expect. I think it is something that a lot of people that have followed the case are not surprised. Jean were joined on the set by legal analyst david ruoff. We within to listen to some emotional sound we heard in the krom within the past hour, hour and a half. Unfortunately the owen labrie my daughter met in 2014 was not the bespeckled pale tweed jacket wearing to expelt divinity student we see in the court. But the vulgar sex obsessed deny until you die entitlessed slay maker who used every trick in conquest to his impressive list and extensive collection. St. Pauls school does a lot of wonderful things. But it fails the students in one glaring respect. Its been called the culture of st. Pauls, its been called the tradition of st. Pauls. If any parent did what st. Pauls school did in ken urging senior boys to hook up with freshmen girls, that parent would be justifiably excoriated by others, saying are you crazy, have you lost your mind . Why would you ever say that to your children . Jean weve learned that labrie has been sentenced to one year in county jail followed by probation and will have to register as a sex offender. And an emotional case as well. Josh you are joining news 9 at 5 00. Well have a bunch more on this case throughout the evening.

has another 18 to 20 years before its depleted. And i heard one of the candidates say last night thats going to be gone in five years and that people are stealing from you and all of that. Thats just not true. Reporter
Health Care Costs

Reporter clinton was also asked who she might consider choosing as her running mate. She said it was way too soon to tell. In berlin, jennifer crompton, wmur news 9. Hayley good evening, everyone. What a wild roller coaster ride weve been on today.

First stop in claremont, notice all those leaves that are on the lawn there, probably was not helped by all the heavy rain and wind we had overnight. Find. Same thing in littleton, clouds in place as we look toward cannon and maybe some sun trying to peak through the cloud as the away. So the two big things today, were the heat and also the wind. The wind were incredibly strong. We had gusts upwards of 40, a couple places approaching 50
Miles Per Hour

High Temperature
today. Almost close to a record, but portsmouth, you did get to a record. The old record 73. Today was 74. The average high for this time in october, 56. So we were a good 20 degrees above that in manchester. Heres where we sit right now, 50s up north, thats where the cold air has seeped in, the rest of us in the 60s.

Mount Washington
valley area. I wouldnt be surprised if we still have a couple hit or miss showers through the overnight hours as well. Big area of low pressure up to the north of us, and this is just sitting and spinning. Eventually it going to drag down so for the next 24 hours a huge temperature swing instead of 70s like we had today, were talking more like fifth for highs tomorrow.

Breast Cancer
, while detection and treatment have been improving, its an established fact that black women tend to fare worse with this disease. Now new statistics reveal that black women today get
Breast Cancer
as frequently as their white counterparts, a surprise since white women have traditionally been more likely to develop
Breast Cancer
. But researchers at the
American Cancer Society
looking at data from a
Large National
Health Survey
find that in some states rates are now even hyper in black women. These women are also likely to be diagnosed later when more aggressive forms of cancer take hold, a finding that researchers say might be due to a lack of care. Bottom line is that when black women do get
Breast Cancer
, they are 40 more likely to die than white women. Fortunately there are steps that all women can take to lower their risk. Eat a diet rich in fruits and vegetableses are maintain a healthy weight, limit alcohol intake, and talk to your doctor about screenings. Small steps that may figure big in prevention. Jean straight ahead tonight, passengers rushed to evacuate when their plane catches fire on the runway.
