Rex Rammell Frog-Marched To Jail
From 43rd State Blues re: the arrest of former Idaho gubernatorial candidate Rex Rammell: "Classic line: "..and they're handcuffing me and treating me like a criminal." This is pretty fresh but it appears as if the Bonneville County Prosecutor (correctly) decided to charge Trifecta (Governor Congressman Senate) candidate Rex Rammell (R-Wingnuttia) with a felony jury tampering charge for his efforts to instruct prospective jurors of their right not to follow the law. (Jurors have no such right, the judge instructs them on the law, and they stand in judgment of the facts as presented by the attorneys.) In inimical Rammell form, he attempts to grandstand the event by calling a press conference to turn himself in. The deputies follow protocol, handcuff him, and with much ado, take him to jail."
