Wow I can't believe I'm one of the first to roll into the office today. And I can't believe it's already been 2 years in jail for Genarlow Wilson. Crazy.

I can't believe we're having to suffer through another Billy Merck post.

The Genarlow Wilson case here in Georgia is a completely screwed up situation. The kid didn't deserve this at all. The legislature completely screwed things up even more when they changed the law so this wouldn't happen again, but didn't make the change retroactive so Wilson got left in prison. The prosecutor showed a complete lack of common sense as well. It is just a bad situation all around.
