| Description | OMAHA, Neb. -- Chanting came from the front sidewalk of the Cheyenne County Courthouse in Nebraska's panhandle on Wednesday. Protestors wanted to be heard.
"Out with Judge Cecava," voices shouted.
"Protect our children," others said.
The courthouse has been at the center of controversy since Judge Kristine Cecava sentenced Richard Thompson to ten years probation rather than prison time for raping a 12-year-old girl. In her sentencing on May 25, the judge said she didn't think Thompson could survive in prison, partly because he's only 5 foot one inch tall.
