'Assassination Politics' author gets 11 months
TACOMA, Wash. - James Dalton Bell, the Vancouver man who wrote an Internet essay entitled "Assassination Politics," was sentenced this morning to 11 months in prison and two to three years of tightly supervised probation.
Eleven *whole* months (8 months served already). They've got to be kidding. This is misdemeanor territory. I know he was chicken enough to plead but Milken pleaded and got 10 years! We're quaking in our boots out here.
