Indian-giver [sorry, couldn't resist] Judge Susan McGuirl gave a suspended sentence to three Narragansett tribe members convicted of assaulting state police. Projo’s got it:
The three Narragansett Indian tribal members convicted of assaulting and scuffing with state police during the 2003 raid on a tribal smoke shop will not have to spend time in jail. Judge Susan McGuirl issued a suspended sentence for one of the defendants and filed the case of Chief Sachem Matthew Thomas and the other tribe member, ordering them to provide community service by talking to school children about tribe history.
