Nearly 13,000 people have signed an online petition calling for the impeachment of a Montana judge who sentenced a 40-year-old man who admitted to raping his 12-year-old daughter to 60 days in jail, PEOPLE confirms. 
  
 Judge John C. McKeon’s sentence was handed down on Oct. 4, according to the Glasgow Courier. The defendant — a resident of Glasgow, Montana, whom PEOPLE has decided not to name to protect the anonymity of his daughter — faced a maximum of 25 years in prison. 
  
 The father will have to register as a sex offender and will be on probation for the next 30 years after admitting in court to raping his daughter once. Two other rape charges against him were dismissed as part of a plea deal, the Courier reports. 
  
 At the Oct. 4 sentencing, McKeon said he was moved by the many letters of support he received from the confessed rapist’s relatives and friends, as well as members of the church the defendant attends, reports KTVQ. 
  
 When contacted by PEOPLE, prosecutor Dylan Jensen refused to comment on McKeon’s sentence. He told the Courier he “was shocked and disappointed” but would “respect” it. 
  
 The online petition seeking McKeon’s impeachment had 12,750 signatures as of Monday afternoon. The petition states “it is time to start punishing the judges who let these monsters walk our streets.” 
  
 Before handing down his sentence, McKeon characterized the conditions the man would eventually face upon his release as “quite restrictive” and “quite rigorous,” according to KWWL. 
  
 McKeon did not respond to PEOPLE’s calls seeking comment.

 In a written response to the public outcry following the sentencing, McKeon released a statement citing a psycho-sexual evaluation that was completed on the man, according to the Billings Gazette. 
  
 According to McKeon’s statement, the psycho-sexual evaluation found that “the defendant could be safely treated and supervised as a sex offender in the community, that such community treatment was available, that the defendant would benefit from such community-based treatment and that it would be best that he start and complete the same treatment program.” 
  
 McKeon writes that “both the plea agreement and the pre-sentence investigation report contain detailed recommendations” to assure the defendant won’t reoffend. McKeon cites “compliance with the community-based sex offender treatment, regular contact with a probation officer and polygraph testing, approval of treatment providers and his probation officer prior to contact with victim or anyone under 18 years of age, no access to materials of sexual nature, limited access to computers and Internet, written approval of residence and before departure from an assigned district and open inspection of residence.” 
  
 PEOPLE was unable to reach the defendant’s family or Glasgow’s police chief. ||||| A Glasgow man was sentenced in Valley County District Court on Oct. 4 for one count of felony incest. With a handful of supporters seated behind him in the courtroom, Martin Blake, 40, appeared before Judge John C. McKeon. 
  
 Following two hours of testimony and arguments, Judge McKeon sentenced Blake to 30 years in the Montana prison system, with all 30 years suspended. 
  
 Blake will be required to meet a number of conditions, including registering as a sex offender. 
  
 Testimony began with probation and parole officer Pam Heikens, who explained some aspects of the plea agreement. Much of the remaining testimony centered around Blake and risk assessments completed by a licensed clinical social worker, Michael Sullivan. 
  
 Sullivan testified that Blake would benefit from community-based sex-offender treatment and described him as a low-risk for recidivism with effective treatment. He also indicated that it would be important for him to have social support during his treatment, noting that after his arrest, Blake did suffer the “collapse of social support” when he lost his family and his job, among other things. 
  
 During his testimony, Blake indicated that he is currently living with his mother and stepdad, is employed, and attends church every Sunday. His testimony was confirmed when his mother took the stand and indicated, “My son is welcome at my home for any time that he needs.” 
  
 The prosecuting attorney, Dylan Jensen, asked that the court sentence Blake pursuant to the plea agreement, stating that he needed to be held accountable for his actions. 
  
 Jensen argued that although Blake was honest about the incident and seemed “contrite,” the acts were egregious and Blake needed to receive a fairly substantial punishment. 
  
 Judge McKeon went on to question Jensen’s indication of plural incidents, as the sentencing was only for one count of incest. Jensen explained that there were more than one instance, but per the proposed plea agreement, the other counts would be dismissed. He did justify his reference to the other acts by explaining that they were included in the assessments completed by Sullivan and testified on earlier in the proceedings. Jensen further responded by stating, “Either way, my recommendation would be the same.” 
  
 Public Defender Casey Moore argued that Sullivan’s testimony was reliable and that Blake would benefit from the recommended community-based treatment program. Moore described Blake as remorseful, forthright and cooperative and asserted that he is low-risk for repeating offenses. 
  
 Moore stated that there is more than one way to hold someone accountable. “I’m not asking that he be given a slap on the wrist,” said Moore. “He did spend 17 days in jail, and he did lose his job.” He also argued that consequences for Blake will be considerable even if he isn’t sent to prison, “For the most part,” Moore said, “he will be on supervision for the rest of his life.” 
  
 In the end, McKeon opted to not follow recommendations set forth in the proposed plea agreement, which would have sent Blake to prison for a minimum of 25 years. When discussing his reasons for suspending the sentence, McKeon referenced the support that Blake had from family, friends, his church and his employer. That support included letters written by the victim’s mother and grandmother asking the court to allow Blake to remain in the community. 
  
 Judge McKeon ended the proceedings by explaining his ruling. He indicated that the conditions are “quite restrictive” and “quite rigorous” and stated “This is the order of the court and the reasons for it.” 
  
 When contacted for comment regarding the sentence, Jensen replied, “I was shocked and disappointed, but I respect the judge’s decision.” Moore declined to comment. |||||
A:
When a 40-year-old man stood in front of a Montana judge on Oct. 4, having admitted to raping his 12-year-old daughter, it was with the knowledge that he would likely spend the next quarter-century in jail. Instead, Judge John C. McKeon ignored a plea deal in which the Glasgow resident had agreed to spend 25 years behind bars and sentenced him to 60 days for felony incest, with credit for 17 days already served, reports People. The man admitted to raping his daughter once—two other rape charges were thrown out—in exchange for a 30-year suspended sentence and 30 years of probation, reports the Glasgow Courier. He'll also have to register as a sex offender and attend community-based sex-offender treatment, per the AP. Valley County Deputy Attorney Dylan Jensen says he was "shocked and disappointed" by the sentence but would "respect" it. Some 14,000 people who've signed a petition calling for McKeon's impeachment are less resigned. McKeon—who is due to retire in November, per KRTV—"does not deserve to collect retirement from the people of Montana," the petition reads. "It is time to start punishing the judges who let these monsters walk our streets." In response, McKeon says a social worker determined the man was unlikely to reoffend. In court, McKeon also cited letters from friends and family in support of community-based treatment. (A teen accused of raping two people didn't go to jail at all.)
