Throwin' The Book At Chuck Guite
Adscam honcho (or patsy depending on you point of view), Chuck Guite received 3.5 years in Prison for his work during the $250-million sponsorship scandal.
It must be stated that he will "likely be eligible for day parole after serving one-sixth of his sentence, and may apply for full parole after he has completed one-third." That half year of the three and a half years is significant for two reasons.
One, he will spend Christmas in prison, not being eligible for day parole until mid-January.
Two, he will serve a full year before being eligible for parole in mid-August 2008. (Note: I'm extrapolating and mathing-up these numbers. They may not be exactly right).
Had he received a three year sentence, or some lame three years less a day, then both of the above would not be so.
Poor Chuck! The Liberals spend years putting soft-hearted putzes on the bench, and when one of them finds themselves in the prisoner's box, they get the one tough guy.
Sorry Charlie!
