What's most interesting to me in this whole story is that this convicted felon was allowed by the bar to continue practicing law.
Then there's this...
Sounds like this narcotics peddler got special treatment right down the line. Admitted to law school, admitted to the bar, excused from serving prison time and now presidentially pardoned.
Special strokes for special folks.
I read the article to mean that she went to law school after her conviction.
