• Pardon Me Boys

    Hello Everybody,

    Pardon me, boys. I've got the Chattanooga Choo Choo.
    Track Number Nine. I hear it's always on time.

    What an atrocity of justice. 428 criminals pardoned by
    the outgoing governor of Kentucky. Talk about a sore loser.

    This should come as no surprise, as the former governor
    is a Republican. Moscow Mitch should sign him up as counsel
    to defend the biggest crook in the land, Donald Trump, for
    his upcoming trial in the Senate.

    And then, if worse comes to worse, with Trump having been
    convicted and removed from office, he can be special counsel
    to President Pence, showing him how to pardon the former
    president.

    Matt Bevin is no longer the governor of Kentucky, but his decisions
    continued to send shock waves through the state’s legal system this
    week after he issued pardons for hundreds of people, some of whom
    committed violent offenses.

    Bevin issued 428 pardons since his defeat to Democrat Andy Beshear
    in a close election in November, the Louisville Courier Journal
    reported. His list includes a man convicted of reckless homicide,
    a convicted child rapist, a man who murdered his parents at age 16
    and a woman who threw her newborn in the trash after giving birth
    in a flea market outhouse.

    He also pardoned Dayton Jones, who was convicted in the sexual assault
    of a 15-year-old boy at a party, Kentucky New Era reported.

    It is not unusual for governors to issue pardons as they leave office,
    but Bevin’s actions boggled some of the state’s attorneys, who
    questioned his judgment.
