There was a Republican supporting his release, which may have made some kind of difference in the end.<BR/><BR/>@ Lisa: Thankyou for sharing the link. I'm headed over to read it.<BR/><BR/>@Yobachi: I dunno, he refused a plea deal and maintained his innocence. He could have took an easy route, if he knew what he was transporting.<BR/>Either way, the sentence was definitely out there for a first time offender.<BR/><BR/>Shine on<BR/>-PZPurpleZoehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15194302701364476475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6352843055824836167.post-52868314096533165572008-11-26T16:16:00.000-08:002008-11-26T16:16:00.000-08:00When I heard of this pardon the other day I was bo...When I heard of this pardon the other day I was both surprised and elated. <BR/><BR/>I had forgotten all about him. I remember when he first got knocked, but haven't thought about him in subsequent years. Can't believe it's been that long. <BR/><BR/>Really surprised that George Bush would go there for a kat like this. Maybe he's trying to make up for Katrina or something. <BR/><BR/>I really don't believe he didn't know what he was carrying, but 14 years is a heavy for a first time offender.Yobachihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16151249328042613857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6352843055824836167.post-83079935814953970492008-11-25T15:29:00.000-08:002008-11-25T15:29:00.000-08:00Hey there!!Thank you for mentioning this case!!

I guess he is trying to get some cool points before he heads out of office.a.eyehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01468719598280416330noreply@blogger.com
