The Olympian reports two women who were bound and robbed at gunpoint in their Rochester home forgave their attacker in court yesterday as he was sentenced to 17 months in prison.
News reporter Jeremy Pawloski writes the women, one of whom was punched repeatedly in the face by Timothy Dopp during the incident in May 2012, both said in court that the terrifying experience scared them enough so that they stopped using methamphetamine and are now happily sober; and they urged Dopp to get clean for the sake of his wife and child.
Dopp, 39, was captured in Pocatello, Idaho four months after the home invasion at the 10,900 block of U.S. Highway 12. The sheriff’s office at the time reported a 3-year-old girl who was in the house slept through it.
Pawloski writes the sentence was recommended by both the prosecutor and defense attorney as part of a deal after Dopp pleaded guilty to second-degree robbery, residential burglary and motor vehicle theft.

I agree with bahlsdeep. He’s a punk, too. Tell you what hisrideordie, when he’s done being someone’s bitch in prison, we’ll both tell him to his face. Or better yet, you tell him for us.
What? He only got a year and a half- less 1/3rd deducted automatically from his sentence. So he’ll only do about 12 months total.
I thought the voters passed a law back in the nineties, known as hard time for armed crime.
That means, any crime committed using a fire arm automatically adds five years to a guilty sentence In addition to whatever the penalty for the offense is.
What gives?
If Dopp can get and stay clean and the victims can do the same this case may have a happy ending all around. Meth is such an addictive drug and very hard to kick. I wish them all luck.
^id love to see u to say that to his face…
Just sayin…
Dopp is a chump.
