Hi!
Mr Violette ONLY received 3 and 1/2 years of prison time for stealing the people’s money? How shameful! Sorry? He is only sorry that he got caught, don’t you think?
By the way, there is no place in the Constitution of the State of Maine that allows a plea bargain as this by passes the trial by jury. It says all civil and all criminal cases must be held by trial by jury.
This is out right fraud!
