Stacy Tremayne Chism’s son Philip Chism is serving his sentence of life in prison with the possibility of parole in 25 years on a murder charge, but he received 40-year concurrent sentences on rape and robbery charges.
Philip’s mother expressed her dissatisfaction with the sentence given. She cried quietly as he was sentenced. She believed that the state Supreme Judicial Court was at fault for this ruling, as they had decided in December 2013 that young offenders could not be given a life sentence without any chance of parole. She released a statement,
“Words can’t express the amount of pain and sorrow these past 2 1/2 years have been,” she said. However, there is no one who has suffered more than the Ritzer family. My utmost esteem, prayers and humble respect is with them today as they continue their journey to heal.”
