Government in Action

A former Idaho Falls prosecutor could spend up to five years in prison after being sentenced Tuesday for stealing weapons from the city of Idaho Falls to sell them.
That Lord Acton, him plenty smart fella.

  2. Yeah what S.A. said!

    From the article:

    "Mason was sentenced Tuesday to three five-year prison terms for two counts of grand theft and one count of falsifying a public record — although Mason might only spend six months in an Idaho Department of Correction facility.

    Senior Judge William Woodland retained jurisdiction on Mason, which means Mason will receive treatment and evaluation for 180 days at a IDOC facility. Woodland will determine after the six months whether Mason should be put on probation for the duration of his sentence."

    Six months? WTF? I'm sure one of us would get the same, NOT!

    And where are the Feds on this one? This guy commited Federal crimes here. Why no mention of that?

    What a crock.
