Sherry Johnston was sentenced Friday to three years in prison for dealing the prescription painkiller OxyContin.
[...]
Johnston made a deal with prosecutors to plead to a single felony count in exchange for dropping five other felony drug dealing charges against her. The deal called for the 42-year-old Wasilla woman to be sentenced to three years of prison time plus three years of probation, which is what the judge gave her.
Johnston received less time than the normal five to eight years for a second-degree felony drug charge because the amount she was dealing was so small.
Johnston is slated to serve her sentence at Alaska's only female prison, Hiland Mountain Correctional Center in Eagle River. She has been at Hiland since she pleaded guilty in August.

In a phone interview after the sentencing, Butler called his client "a poster child for health care reform." He said his client was selling some of the drugs to get money to pay for other pain medications that her insurance company was cutting her off from. He would not identify her insurance company.

Levi Johnston, who recently posed for "Playgirl" magazine, was at the Friday morning sentencing in Palmer, fresh off from making rounds in Hollywood circles, according to the Los Angeles Times.

Attorney Rex Butler,a Democrat operative, worked on the Jesse Jackson for President campaign and now is Levi Johnston's handler.
Judge Eric Smith who gave the sentence (3 years instead of 5 to 8). He was rejected by Governor Sarah Palin for the Alaska Supreme Court earlier this year not at least for his radical enviromentalist views.
Please support "Health reform"... please. Do it for Levi's mom.
Sheesh!
I miss the old days, when people did things like this for the poor old grandmother or to save the local orphanage.
You can tell the judge is a nut-case AND a LIBERAL. Is it just me or what? Why is it when you see someone with a beard, he’s almost certainly a LIBERAL. Almost like they are hiding from something, dont want to be recognized. Like the hyphenated last names. What is it with these people?
No doubt Obamacare would up her prescription to “pure streetgrade smack”.
Meanwhile her son keeps bad mouthing Sarah Palin. Go figure.
Oh, almost forgot the original intent of my post. You’ll see. The apple wont fall far from this tree. That punk will be in the news for bad things soon. Getting that girl pregnant and then running away is certainly a character indicator.
Notice he didnt say WHY her insurance company was cutting her off? Probably for non-payment. She was spending all her money on drugs. He did a good job spinning that one, I'll tell ya.
Yup. He looks like a friggin lunatic.
Lynne Stewart got less time for conspiracy and providing material support to terrorists.
As for Levi, or should I say Ricky Hollywood, I don't see any more value from him for the libs against Sarah. He has zero credibility.
Who is going to believe that Sarah referred to her son Trig as the “retarded kid” ? He is finished I would say. mind you would not surprise me if he become a regular panelist on Meet the Press, has as much credibility as the host and the regular guests.
Welcome to Free Repub;ic.
Levi keeps the 'pre-marital sex' angle alive with respect to Sarah Palin's daughter. This is obviously meant to crack Palin's support within the religious-conservative voting block. Huckabee is the benefactor of votes lost in that area. I think that the Dems believe that Huckabee cannot win, so the strategy is to go after Palin early & often with these kinds of attacks to keep her off stride.
Grifters
The last interview I saw with Levi made me think he has been indulging a bit himself. He totally came across as stoned.
Yeah, it's just you.
Welcome to FREErepublic.
He’s got the Richard Dreyfuss look going on
judge looks frazzled
