Let this clown rot for a few years in the joint. While the rest of us slave and labor for peanuts, this punk thinks he is someone precious and special. So precious and special, he doesn’t have to pay his just dues like the rest of us do. I’d love to know what joint he’s going to. I’d have someone send me pictures for a carton of smokes, when he’s on his knees or bent over, while - that con collects his form of taxes his own way. HAHAHA! Give a fool money, and he blows it like the fool he is. Then pretends that he’s innocent. Pathetic little worm!
