Ricky Alderete, the 45-year-old man who stole and destroyed American baseball legend, Jackie Robinson statue in Kansas is now facing 19 years in jail. This came at the heel of him pleading guilty to multiple charges against him

Report stated that the large Jackie statue was stolen on January 25 from a youth baseball park in Wichita but found burned and destroyed days later at a nearby park.

He admitted to his role in the crime in court this week.

That's right. He needs to be questioned to know why he had to do that not even selling it.

That convicted person was a hater that's one concrete example of ' jealousy kills'. He will rot in jail 19 years is too long.

I read that the statue can be worth $75.000, If he had not burned and destroyed it, he would have received fewer years in prison.

That convicted person was not in his right thinking. He should have been interrogated why hated the statue. He might be high on drugs.

Yesh but the essence of the act doesn't just make sense. He would have even sold it for financial gains

He will be charged with theft, vandalism and embezzlement I believe. I don't know how many years in prison he gets for each crime.
