A U.S. judge is getting 'numerous vitriolic' phone calls after he did not sentence a school bus driver to jail time for raping a 14-year-old.

Piche also was required to register as a Level 1 sex offender, the lowest of three categories based on the risk of another offence. Three orders of protection were issued and Piche was ordered not to be left alone with anyone under the age of 17. Chalfen said the judge was "well within" the sentencing range for this type of negotiated plea conviction. The maximum state prison time he could have received would have been from 1 1/3 to 4 years, he said.
The station said a victim impact statement given to them by the victim's mother read, "I wish Shane Piche would have received time in jail for the harm he caused to my child. He took something from my daughter she will never get back and has caused her to struggle with depression and anxiety."
