Federal Judge Approves Wedding!!!!!
KENOSHA, WI -- A federal judge says an Illinois prisoner being held in the Kenosha County Jail can marry his long-time girlfriend.
The attorney for Marvel Thompson -- also known as the "King of the Black Disciples" in Chicago -- plans to deliver the court's order to officials in Kenosha this week.
Thompson is awaiting sentencing in Kenosha after pleading guilty to conspiracy to distribute heroin and cocaine.
The ceremony would cost Kenosha taxpayers about $600. Kenosha County Sheriff David Beth says that's $600 too much.
Hello Wisconsin!!!
Why $600? Couldn't a justice of the peace or someone who got their ministerial license online by paying $50 for it be hustled in for a 10 minute ceremony?
His children Surprise, Wonder, Astonishment, Thunderstruck and Amaze Johnson were all in attendance.
MY wedding didn't cost $600! I eloped.
Oh, never mind....
"MY wedding didn't cost $600! I eloped."
Mine didn't either, and it was under these exact same circumstances! *GASP* Just Kiddin'! ;)
And I was angry about my AL Medicaid tax.
cant he just pay with cigarettes?
Let the judge pick up the tab.
Shazam musta been stuck in traffic
"Can't he just pay with cigarettes?"
LOL! Didn't one of our states just OK free condoms for prisoners?
I thought prison sex was illegal? And hiding drugs in condoms and "stuffin' 'em" just got a whole lot easier for the inmates, didn't it? Cripes. What a country!
