ON July 25, 2017, Rashed Brown was sentenced to 100 to 150 years in prison for 2nd Degree Murder after a high-speed chase, which Rashed believes is an excessive sentencing and wrongful charge in the Judical System.

Rashed Brown did not intentionally kill Reo Docktor, which Rashed Brown during his sentencing showed great compassion, sorrow, remorse, and was very apologetic to the late Reo Docktor, widow, Deborah and his family.

Reo Docktor, widow Deborah did forgive Rashed Brown during her testimony, which Rashed Brown, Reo Doctor's family and the family of Rashed Brown did rejoice in the court room. During the sentencing, as Deborah was deliberating of her forgiveness to Rashed Brown; it provided Rashed Brown with a sense of relief and, brought tears to his eyes, and a smile to his face, which the media used the picture of Rashed smiling to portray and broadcast Rashed as this heartless individual, which Rashed does not recall or has any recollection of the accident, which he stated in court during his heartful testimony.

The judge applauded both families on their conduct during the long procedural process. The judge also pointed out that despite of Rashed's convictions, he never attempted to do any probation, which was never an option for Rashed Brown during this horrific accident.

We the people, on behalf of Rashed Brown request that Oakland County Court modify its judgement to adequate sentencing and correct the charge based on an appeal of the newly decided decision on behalf of Rashed Brown.

The focus remains on the stark discrepancy between the courtroom reconciliation and the harshness of the final sentencing. I am currently preparing a formal packet of evidence to present to the Oakland County Court regarding this case. Please continue to monitor this page for further developments on these legal efforts.

I spoke with a member of the family of the defendant. He was simply giving a friend a ride. Because of his past he didn't want to get involved or in trouble from what I was told. That's why he fled. It was a tragic accident, not murder. Terrible for everyone involved.

This sentence sounds patently absurd. We have seen heinous murderers get a far lighter sentence. This sentence cannot bring the victim back , I wish it could , but it seems like a revenge sentence not Justice.

Rashed has two kids, we all make mistakes especially in times of fear. If not for the sake of doing the right thing for someone who is a genuinely good man, do it for the two kids who will grow up without their father.

That's not right at all. It's so many people that had similar offenses and didn't get time at all, some got light sentences. Yes a life was lost and dues got to be paid, but this due is extremely high. The family forgave him, why not this system do the same.

I have scene people who committed heinous crimes receive far less in terms of sentencing. I feel very bad for the victim of this accident , but a sentence of 150 years does not bring the deceased back and seems patently absurd.

This type of sentencing is inhuman with and reflective of the way our justice system treats young Black men. While I'm immensely empathetic for the family that has lost a loved one, I can't see the need to lock away for essentially eternity an equally valuable life.
