Another Democrat Goes To Prison

William Jefferson- Democrat Scum Bag, was sentenced to at least 13 years in prison for bribery.
The former Louisiana congressman who famously hid $90,000 cash in his freezer following an FBI bribery sting was sentenced to 13 years in prison Friday, the longest term ever imposed on a congressman convicted of bribery.
Prosecutors wanted the 62-year-old William Jefferson, a Democrat who represented parts of New Orleans, to serve at least 27 years in prison. The defense wanted less than 10 years and hoped Jefferson could remain free on bond while he appeals his conviction.
Jefferson said nothing in court after he was sentenced. He was convicted in August of 11 counts, including bribery and racketeering. Prosecutors at his two-month trial said he took roughly $500,000 in bribes and sought millions more. He was acquitted of five other charges, including the one most closely associated with the money in his freezer". http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/11/13/ex-rep-jefferson-sentenced-bribery-friday/?test=latestnews

Jefferson, who was supported by Democrats until almost to the end is going away.
Scum bag doesn't even begin to describe Jefferson. While Hurricane Katrina was going on, he commandeered a military vehicle to get money out of his freezer.
Yet, he was never thrown out of office by congresscritters of both parties despite the overwhelming evidence against him.
Stay safe, Democrat Jefferson, as you spend the next 13 years in prison.
