Convicted With No Evidence by an All-White Jury, Black Community Leader Faces Life in Prison

[hfojvt]

20. I am commenting on the JOURNALISM

Of telling a one sided-story about RACE. Like it's a "black community leader" against "white power".

Except the "power" in this case seems to be a "black communtiy leader". A black man who was elected mayor. And how much power does a small town mayor have?

Something I found out with about five minutes worth of searching on the internet, but background that the authors of this piece chose not to discover or to present.

Is there really no evidence in this case? Or is that just what the con man and the con man's lawyers are saying?

There certainly IS not yet a life sentence. He has yet to receice a sentence, but he, and his lawyer, are already trying to work the media, work the public opinion (the refs) to reduce any possible sentence. If he does get a life sentence it will not be for THIS crime, it will be because of his OTHER felony convictions.

In the end though, he's likely to get a $500 fine, 100 hours of community service and two years of probation.
