An Iowa man who assaulted another man for calling him out for wearing his face mask incorrectly has been sentenced to 10 years in prison after removing it entirely and spitting in the victim's face. 'If I have it, you have it!' Shane Wayne Michael told Mark Dinning after the disgusting attack, implying he had infected him with the COVID-19 virus. Both men were at the Vision 4 Less eyewear store in Des Moines on November 11 of last year when Dinning allegedly asked the 42-year-old to secure his face mask over his nose as Michael had pulled his mask down slightly,

Pretty stupid to spit on someone when a quick "drop dead" retort would have sufficed.

The punishment seems a little light for such a satanic transgression of the foa-chi proclamations.
A crucifixion would be more appropriate surely. And I don’t mean the kind done with ropes!! Foa-chi must not be controverted!

Excessive penalty. If he actually HAD Covid... maybe.
But nothing in his statement implied he had Covid, only that he was sick and tired of the BS, and a nagging stranger

And yet prisons have let thousands of robbers, rapists, arsonists, burglars and murderers OUT over 'fear of Covid'.
It is an insane world.

This will never survive appeal. Massive over-reach by this judge.
The guy deserved a fine, and maybe a few days in county lockup, along with some public service. You don't spit on people in a civilized society. But 10 years in prison, when they are releasing hard-core criminals, and not prosecuting violent BLM and Antifa racist thug rioters, is just obscene!!!!

Charges should be brought against the judge for such a ridiculous sentence.

He must have had a pee-pee poor lawyer to get that kind of sentence without proof that he actually had the flu.

I think the judge should serve nine years and eleven months of that sentence.

The headline is a lie. The jail sentence is for a class C felony for almost putting the man's eye out. [McNutly, you are an idiot. Try making the headline match the facts of the news story. Your editor is an idiot, too.] The perp got 10 years for following the mask busybody out of the store and assaulting him causing a severe eye injury, a class C felony. He was told to pull his stupid mask up and instead of telling the bearded masked moron to mind his own business, he lost his temper followed him around the store, spit on him, and got in a fight with him like a spoiled juvenile. The idiot can enjoy prison [where he belongs away from decent people] while the bearded mask-busybody can nurse his wounds and contemplate minding his own business in the future, and maybe a mask on his heavy hippy beard isn't any more effective than one that's half down.

He violated Dear Leader's edicts. Burn down Seattle and don't even get arrested.

The maximum sentence for a Class C felony in Iowa is 10 years, of which the defendant will actually serve 4 years, 199 days under the "earned time" provision for good behavior. Still, imposing the maximum time would be extremely unusual for this offense, which is why the plea deal offered included no time and two years probation. My guess is the sentence is reversed on appeal.

Even though he should have been taken behind the woodshed and had the crap beaten out of him, ten years is a severe penalty for spitting in a guy's face. The four remaining 9/11 terrorists, who Sleepy Joe is releasing from Gitmo, ended up doing only 20 years for being complicit in the deaths of over 3000 Americans. Their original sentences were to be imprisoned "forever". Now they'll be able to help organize more attacks on Americans. Is this a great country or what?
