Mother of Bristol Palin’s ex-beau guilty in drug case
PALMER, Alaska — The mother of the man former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin’s daughter Bristol had planned on marrying has reached a plea deal in her drug case.
Sherry Johnston pleaded guilty Wednesday to one count of possession with intent to deliver the painkiller OxyContin. Five other felony counts were dropped.
“That’s pretty,” Johnston said as a court officer placed pink handcuffs, a gift from an Arizona sheriff, around her wrists.
She hugged her lawyer, Rex Butler, before being escorted out of the courtroom and taken to a correctional facility where she’ll be held until her Nov. 20 sentencing.
Although Johnston could receive 20 years in prison, her attorney and prosecutors agreed to a 5 year sentence, with two years suspended, Butler said, considering the small quantities of drugs involved. The judge has the sentencing recommendation under review.
Johnston, 42, is the mother of 19-year-old Levi Johnston. He and 18-year-old Bristol Palin were engaged but called the wedding off after their son, Tripp, was born in December.

don’t take the bait, FRiends.
The liberal news media gives Levi a used Firebird and gas money every time he says something lousy about Sarah.
Maybe the Palins should look into getting full custody for the child. The baby isn’t safe around the Johnstons. Sherryl is a druggie, Levi is a slimy punk and his sister whatshername is the creepiest of the bunch.
Levi is such a celebrity. Why doesn’t someone put him on the spot with a question about his ma?
What a ridiculous headline. They always have to get a “Palin” dig in there. How about “Mother of Levi Johnston . . “
He IS a celebrity in his own right now, isn’t he? Or even better:
“Mother of Kathy Griffin’s new boy-toy . . . “
Levi has always struck me as trailer park trash, with manners to match.
Because the left needs the punk as a willing tool to “get at Palin”.
I’m surprised that Levi has not accused Sarah of being his mothers supplier. That weasel has thrown so much other bravo sierra up against the wall.
“Why doesn’t someone put him on the spot with a question about his ma?”
I dunno...but kids who grow up with drug dealing mamas don’t turn out too well as a rule...the punk goes on all these talk shows and puts down the Palin family like they were the kind of trash he comes from...and not a word about it...
Well it could have been twisted worse: “Mother of Sarah Palin’s daughter’s ex-beau...”
don’t take the bait, FRiends.
What does that mean? You a friend of his?
Rex Butler is a Jesse Jackson thug, Obamatron race-hustling ambulance chaser who has targetted Palin since long. He is pulling the strings of the Johnston clan to target the Palins.

It means if this kind of crap makes your mouth water with insults that you're as much white trash as anybody.
I really do not think it is a crime to sell products to folks who want to buy them, with out permission from some government agent.
Does it?
Shhh. The unending attacks on Palin may very well backfire into a substantial sympathy vote from women. If the Dems figure this out, they’ll stop peddling the stories, so keep quiet.
“What does that mean? You a friend of his?”
“It means if this kind of crap makes your mouth water with insults that you’re as much white trash as anybody.”
Hahahahaha...right...don’t say anything bad about the poor lad, he’s only a pawn in the game of life? Sorry...the boy should get what he gives...life as it should be...
Meanwhile, the trial of the 5 that tortured and murdered Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom is getting nothing but local coverage.
