I guess he really only gets two more to serve.

[feedcall]

Is that 7 more (12 total), or 2 added on the 5 he is currently serving? I believe it is 7 total, but I can't tell the way it is written in the ever so informative Clarion Ledger.

2 more. He will serve his two sentences at the same time or "concurrently". The first a 5yr. and the second a 7 yr.

They could have given him 20 years and it would not have been enough.

[YazooValley]

They run concurrently but he doesn't get credit for time already served. So in essence, he's due to get out seven years from today. If the reports are right.

A long read but a great article that explains exactly what he did. Very well written.

He is still getting off easy for all he did. That is what is known that he did!

"He is Cooperating" Maybe some more nuts will be shaken out of the tree.

"However, there would appear to be other names. There are a couple of people who, if indicted, would mean that "all bets are off" and this investigation could go absolutely anywhere."

Guessing that last couple of lines are alluding to Trent Lott? What ya'll think?

Expect another indictment late this week or first thing next week, with more to follow. Its about time!
