Montgomery man sentenced to life in string of multiple violent crimes
A Montgomery man has been sentenced to life in prison for a string of violent crimes dating to 2019.
Rubin Mack was set to stand trial for numerous separate offenses, including charges of first-degree kidnapping, discharging a firearm into an occupied dwelling, first-degree attempted assault, first-degree sexual abuse, four counts of domestic violence in the third degree and first-degree unlawful imprisonment, court records show. Prior to the start of jury selection for one of his five cases, Mack pleaded guilty to the eight felony charges and one misdemeanor, said District Attorney Azzie Oliver.
He was then sentenced to life behind bars by Circuit Judge Greg Griffin, she said.
'I am proud that my team of dedicated prosecutors and our and hard-working law enforcement partners could bring justice to these women," Oliver said. "Physical and sexual abuse have long-term psychological and emotional effects on the survivors. There is no making up for the pain they endured, but I hope they find comfort in knowing Rubin Mack will spend the rest of his life behind bars, unable to hurt anyone ever again.
"These cases also exemplify why we need bail reform. Violent offenders should not be permitted to roam freely in our neighborhoods. We cannot continue to have people who are an obvious risk to public safety remaining on the streets to harm their victims again or hurt other people.'
