A Chicago man with a long criminal history was sentenced to 15 years in federal prison after he was convicted of firing a gun into the open grave of a man murdered just two days prior, authorities said.

U.S. District Judge John J. Tharp Jr. handed down the sentence Wednesday after Elston Stevenson, 57, pleaded guilty to one count of illegal possession of a firearm by a felon, according to a news release Monday from the U.S. attorney’s office in Chicago.

I thought crapping on it after the hole was filled was the proper way of paying your respects. I guess I’ve been doing it wrong.

"Elston Stevenson, 57, pleaded guilty to one count of illegal possession of a firearm by a felon."

That is not a conviction for firing a gun into a grave.   Why do they have to lie!?!?

My wife said that they should have just convicted him of being stupid.
