A U.S. Attorney's press release today reports that Judge Mendez sentenced a former firefighter to the mandatory minimum 5-years imprisonment after he pled guilty to arson and admitted setting wild land fires on federal lands. The government's Sentencing Memo asked for a 90-month sentence, consistent with the (c)(1)(C) plea agreement of the parties. I don't have any more info, but it appears that Judge Mendez rejected the (c)(1)(C) sentencing recommendation and instead followed the presentence report's recommendation for a five year sentence.
