Judge orders Genarlow Wilson freed The Atlanta Journal-Constitution | 06/11/07
The attorney general's office disclosed that as recently as this past weekend Douglas County offered Wilson's attorneys a plea deal that would have allowed Wilson to avoid a criminal record and inclusion on the sex offender registry once his sentence had been completed. The plea deal would have also allowed Wilson to serve a "substantially shorter" prison sentence, possibly leading to his "release based upon time already served."
Wilson, through his attorneys, refused those offers.
As well he might because, according to the very article you cite, the county insists on forcing Wilson to serve his sentence. Douglas County is APPEALING the judge's decision to free Wilson. A tinpot Javert's idea of 'zero tolerance' is bringing down major embrrassment upon Georgia.
