Heard through the grapevine -Former congressman Mark Jimenez was forced to spend a few more weeks in the US penitentiary after he was found to have distributed "farewell gifts" to prison guards as well as fellow inmates.
That's illegal?
That's pretty basic and well-known.
Perhaps we should require Pathological Gift Givers to register, so you will know when one moves into your neighborhood!
It sounds like bribery - a familar concept for Jimenez and Clinton.
The only thing surprising about this is that Bubba Klinton didn't make a few phone calls to "take care" of this situation.
When the "gifts" are in the shower room in the wee hours of the morning!
Wonder what his cell mate "gave" him in return? lol
It would be interesting to compare his prison experience to J. Gordon Liddy's.
'Tis always better to give than receive.
I know a guy who put a grand in everyone's canteen at Christmas while in the can. They charged him with racketeering.
I think I'll to refrain from doing either. lol
