Janklow Secretly Pardoned Son-in-Law
PIERRE, S.D. -- Former governor William J. Janklow pardoned his
son-in-law in 2002 for three drunken-driving and marijuana-possession
convictions, according to documents unsealed on orders from South
Dakota's highest court.

All together, 218 sealed pardons were made public, after the practice
of keeping such actions secret was challenged by news organizations.
All but four of the pardons were issued by Janklow.
In an interview, Janklow said he had no idea the pardons could not be
legally sealed and that feels "heartsick" for people whose pardon
information has been released.
Janklow was elected to Congress in 2002 but resigned last year after
being convicted of manslaughter in an auto accident that killed a
motorcyclist. He served 100 days in jail and was released last week.
Among the records released was the 2002 pardon of William Gordon
Haugen II, husband of Janklow's daughter Shonna. It covered
drunken-driving convictions in 1983 and in 1997, and a 1993 conviction
for marijuana possession.

multiple offender but he still got pardoned!!!!

Conspiracy to distribute, actually. Which (I think) means he didn't
actually have the coke, he was just in on the deal. This charge is
typically brought against someone to hooks up a seller and buyer ("yeah, I
know a guy").
The money involved was peanuts compared to the millions Neil Bush helped his
pals loot from Silverado Savings and Loan. Thanks to Reagan's deregulation
of S&Ls, those millions were covered by U.S. taxpayers. No pardon needed -
those clever Republicans had made this corporate raid on the U.S. Treasury
completely legal.

Not at all. The thread was titled "I thought the GOP was hard on crime",
and so it made pointing this out appropriate.
I found Bill's pardon of brother Roger nothing compared to Roger's
soliciiting six figure sums to "represent" felons in pardon and clemency
applications to Bill at the very end of his presidency. That little fire
sale was a cardinal sin; pardoning someone who hooked up two people on a
coke deal, after he kept his nose clean (pun intended) for a dozen years
afterwards, merely venal.

Hmmm. I guess I was more focused on his other hobbies. ;)

Cocaine use is nothing compared to drunk driving. DUIs are killers
and maimers and should NEVER be pardoned.

I don't know too much about how people drive under the influence of cocaine,
but given the behavior of people on the drug, I'm thinking it's not good.

While we are on the subject of substance abuse, do you think bush might be
suffering from Korsakov's syndrome? I ask because it is consitant with his
past and current behavior. What do you think?
fundamentalism, fundamentally wrong.
