Tom Noe Sentanced to Prison
For those of you who don't know about Tom Noe, get briefed on Wikipedia (hint: check under Coingate). For the rest of you, here's the latest update: Tom Noe has been sentanced to 27 months in Jail. This is just in regards to his illegal fundraising tactics. While I'm sure many of you aren't easily excited by Campaign Finance (woo hoo!), it actually is a bit of a big deal.

In regards to Coingate, Noe's rackateering and stealing from the Ohio Bureau of Workers' Comp. (BWC). The sentancing for that fun fiasco will come in a month or so. So stay tuned.

Oh my man Tom. Too bad the "conduits" for his money didn't get any time, though. The big charges are still to come, right before election day. As if the Republicans even had a chance in Lucas County...
