The plea bargain in an Anchorage court case KTVA first covered has not only drawn national headlines and outrage from Alaskans but also reaction from candidates in the governor’s race.
Justin Schneider, 34, walked out of court last Wednesday after changing his plea in the case of a brazen midday assault in which charging documents say he offered a woman a ride, then strangled her unconscious and masturbated on her. An Anchorage grand jury indicted Schneider on four felony charges including kidnapping and assault, and one misdemeanor count of Harassment I--offensive contact with fluids -- for the August 2017 incident.
