   Well, since you're going to call me Chrissy, I'll go ahead and resume   
   calling you by the title of plunger-boy.   
      
   Because I believe he is guilty, I must be uneducated? Show us how that   
   works.   
      
   Suspicion is presumption. The difference, is conviction.

   How many mega-millionaires can you compare this case to, and validate your   
   claim?

   So, you're a legislator?

   This is about reporting prison misconduct to the proper departments, not   
   about whether or not a prosecutor feels uneasy with a pre-existing   
   conviction. They are NOT the same concerns.
