From: Thomas Holohan <[t--my--n] at [alaska.net]> Newsgroups: rec.drugs.cannabis Subject: Just busted part 2 Date: Thu, 11 Jun 1998 18:04:46 GMT I have been following all these posts very closely, and first I want to say thank you to all the supporters.......you dont know how good it feels to read some positive feed back. Now for some really sickning news (this will make Sgt. Rock really happy) I just found out the reason I got busted was that a person that I had briefly met was sentenced to a 6 month sentence for assault and battery ( he broke his wifes nose in front of his kids), and mind you that this is his 4th assault conviction in a matter of 3 years. This person made a deal with the District Attornys office to turn in information on a supposedly Marijuana grow operation of a felony level (over 100 plants). All of this is public knowledge I have copies of the court documents sitting in front of me for proof. This VIOLENT criminal was released one day after the narcotics unit raided my home. The court documents state that his end of the bargain has been satisfied and his sentence is to be reduced by 60 days which meant instant release from the minimum security facility he was being held at. (The same day I was busted). I have lost all faith in the united states judicial system, I cant believe that the system would rather let a violent criminal on the streets then a ALLEGED marijuana grower who had no weapons at the scene and no scales. I lay awake at night in a cold sweat thinking this can actually happen. I want to thank people like SGT. ROCK for making this kind of mentality possible. I will keep you all posted to the progress (or lack of) this case. Once again any support or advice is greatly appreciated.
