A petition drive is calling for the resignation of the Nebraska judge who sentenced a sex offender to probation instead of prison in part because of his short stature. The campaign is aimed at Cheyenne County District Judge Kristine Cecava, who last week sentenced Richard W. Thompson to 10 years intensive probation instead of prison on two felony child sexual assault charges. Cecava said at the sentencing hearing that she did not believe the 5-foot, 1-inch Thompson could survive in prison.
