Tire Slasher Gets Probation Despite Outrage of Neighbor Victims
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — A Mayfair man was sentenced today to probation for slashing tires of about a dozen parked automobiles around his neighborhood in 2012.
David Toledo was also convicted of slashing his own car’s tires (see previous story) in an apparent attempt to divert attention from himself as a suspect (see related story).
Prosecutors had sought a sentence of 5-10 years in prison, and the probation sentence was even less than the defense sought. The judge in the case, Edward Wright, did not explain why he decided on probation for the defendant.
