(9,426 posts)People who stole much less have received much longer sentences. He will get lots of time off for good behavior too, no doubt.

(4,291 posts)He did use the phrase Witch Hunt, but mysteriously pleaded guilty anyway.
And I think Cantaloupe Caligula has more than enough on his plate right now...
Even so, his career in politics is over and done with. Exit, stage extreme-right. No curtain-call, and no bowing, especially in the shower at the Cross-bar Hotel. However long he stays there.

(82,849 posts)Former Rep. Hunter sentenced to 11 months in prison
The Hunters used more than $500 in campaign funds to fly the familys pet rabbit, Eggburt, across the country with them, Margaret Hunter admitted in her plea agreement.
Many more rib-tickling details that you may have read about, but forgotten, including Hunter's attempt to portray his extramarital dalliances with lobbyists and staffers as "legislative acts" and therefore immune from prosecution.

And didnt he get re-elected after he was already indicted?

(28,125 posts)I don't live in CA but just keep mental notes on people voting against animal rights laws because I love critters so much and give to many animal groups.
