A left-wing activist judge in Louisville, Kentucky reduced a convicted rapist-kidnapper’s recommended sentence from 65 years to 30 years during sentencing on February 2. The decision followed the criminal proceedings of Christopher Thompson, who was found guilty in December of kidnapping, robbing and sexually assaulting a woman in a 2023 incident.

Court documents detail that Thompson abducted the victim in her vehicle, forced oral sex on her at a school parking lot, drove her to an ATM to rob her, then returned to sodomize her twice at gunpoint. During his sentencing hearing, Thompson displayed unrepentant behavior, repeatedly interrupting Judge Tracy Davis and stating he did not “care” about the victim or feel remorse.

Thompson directly insulted Judge Davis during proceedings, telling her to “eat my dck,” and later declared, “If I could spit on you, I would.” Despite escalating disruptions and profanity, Davis ultimately sentenced Thompson to 30 years, citing his age and potential for rehabilitation while noting he had “fallen through the cracks” as an 18- or 19-year-old.

The judge stated the court did not believe Thompson was beyond redemption with proper resources during incarceration. Thompson maintained throughout the hearing that he lacked sympathy for victims or their families, declaring, “I don’t care.”
