Rojano-Nieto was convicted of sodomising and committing a lewd act on a three-year-old female girl after she strayed into his Santa Ann garage last year on 3 June while he played a computer game.
As the child’s mother searched for her, Rojano-Nieto locked the garage doors and placed his hands over the three-year-old’s mouth to prevent her cries from reaching her parent.
In the document read to the court Judge Kelly concluded although the child now appeared to be “happy and healthy” he acknowledged it was “hard to gauge” how the crime might affect her later in life.
He also noted that a court-ordered psychological examination concluded Rojano-Nieto was not a true paedophile, and a sentencing report claimed he did not pose a danger to society.
"Although serious and despicable, this does not compare to a situation where a paedophilic child predator preys on an innocent child," the judge added. "There was no violence or callous disregard for (the victim's) well-being."

You know I don't even comment on these horrible crimes against children much anymore , it does no good . If it really bothered us we would do something about it . We allow it to happen .

He didn't put his hand over her mouth because he thought he was doing something kind. If the judge thinks this is a nonviolent crime or that it didn't involve callous disregard for the victim's well being the judge is a prime candidate for a checkup from the neckup.
I would also be absolutely astonished if someone who so rapidly took advantage of a chance encounter and acted to conceal his actions was a first time offender. This might have been the first time he was caught but I'd put money on the idea that it wasn't his first go around with that type of crime.

The disposition of this whole case is unbelievable.
Unbelievable. The forum rules won't let me post my visceral reaction to this. As an adoptive father of three children who suffered abuse at the hands of other adults, I can almost ensure you that little girl will be mentally traumatized for the rest of her life. It is well documented that children who are abused even at the youngest of ages exhibit PTSD like symptoms and worse later in life. This judge hasn't a clue. Where was the child's advocate in this case??? That animal should never see the light of day again.

If that were my child or my grandchild the pedophile would not have been able to stand trial. Two heinous acts. I hope the Judge is disbarred and the pedophile receives his Jailhouse Justice soon.

Perhaps someone could make sure his crime is known inside the walls. He will probably be in segregation or with like offenders for his own protection until he gets out.
in societies that have restrictions on guns, their concept of justice is might makes right. Guns are the great equalizer. Guns protect the weak and old. Societies that value guns value the weak and old. They describe unprovoked violent encounters as self defense. People who support gun control describe unprovoked violent encounters as a fair fight. Thats why the country with the most gun control has the most geriatric and pediatric rapes, japan. That's why california would rule in favor of the pedophile, might makes right and you are not responsible for your actions so there shouldn't be any consequences. This attitude also accounts for welfare states, abortion legalization, crime, and poverty. Liberalism is a cancer and gun control is just the tip of their iceberg. Liberals think if you tax the hard working and throw it at the poor, it will solve all the proleblems. If throwing money at them solves problems, then why do 80 percent of lottery winners lose all their millions in 2 years? What about the other 20 percent? Let's see, there's that austin cop who continued working after he won the lottery. I dont think he'll lose all his money in 2 years.
Sounds like the judge needs a psych eval. Not a true pedophile? How is that possible? He did exactly what the judge said he didn't do.

As a small matter of personal consequence I remember the day I lost my confidence in the judicial system . It was the day the court did not execute Jeffery Dahmer . It took hardened criminals to get it done . A man should not be allowed to torture , kill and eat his neighbors .
What if it were the judge's own child or grandchild? I am appalled and angry by this judge's decision. If he were our local judge, I'd start a petition to remove him. They should name and shame this judge!
If you carry a gun, people call you paranoid. Nonsense! If you carry a gun, what do you have to be paranoid about?
