Pennsylvania Judge Sentenced For 28 Years For Selling Kids to the Prison System
Greatest honor would be to be able to spit on this man’s grave.
Mark Ciavarella Jr, a 61-year old former judge in Pennsylvania, has been sentenced to nearly 30 years in prison for literally selling young juveniles for cash. He was convicted of accepting money in exchange for incarcerating thousands of adults and children into a prison facility owned by a developer who was paying him under the table. The kickbacks amounted to more than $1 million.
The Pennsylvania Supreme Court has overturned some 4,000 convictions issued by him between 2003 and 2008, claiming he violated the constitutional rights of the juveniles – including the right to legal counsel and the right to intelligently enter a plea. Some of the juveniles he sentenced were as young as 10-years old.
Ciavarella was convicted of 12 counts, including racketeering, money laundering, mail fraud and tax evasion. He was also ordered to repay $1.2 million in restitution.
His “kids for cash” program has revealed that corruption is indeed within the prison system, mostly driven by the growth in private prisons seeking profits by any means necessary.

So there is a story behind this is picture:As I entered the booth to get my picture, introductions, and Wil Wheaten says to Felicia Day. “So he’s dressed as the 10th Doctor Who which you’d know if you watched the damn show” to which she retorts, “Ah whatever they all dress the fucking same.” Wil glares, I laugh, she conveniently poses. Snap. Felicia then says “Ha did you see that, I set him up for that one.” Those two were the most down to earth people I’ve met here. So awesome.
hahaha Oh, Wil and Felicia. You two are so cute! :-)
This is hilarious. John McCain brings Sarah Palin in as a roommate without consulting the other roommates.

When the right takes quotes out of context, are they being willfully ignorant, or do they really believe what the out-of-context quote seems to imply? For example, to go around saying that Hillary Clinton’s “what difference does it make” regarding Benghazi means that she was saying that the deaths don’t matter is completely the opposite of what she meant, when she said:
With all due respect, the fact is we had four dead Americans. Was it because of a protest or was it because of guys out for a walk one night who decided that they’d they go kill some Americans? What difference at this point does it make? It is our job to figure out what happened and do everything we can to prevent it from ever happening again
But yet people go around quoting “What difference does it make,” as though she meant what difference do the deaths at Benghazi make. Sad.
