Mississippi governor Haley Barbour is a corrupt hog
#30
i'll be waiting for the outcome of this today:

(CNN) -- Four convicted murderers who were released from prison earlier this month after receiving pardons are among those who could have their fate determined in a Mississippi court Monday.

In his final days in office, Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour pardoned the four convicted murderers -- David Gatlin, Joseph Ozment, Charles Hooker and Anthony McCray.
At the Monday hearing, the judge can void the pardons and send the inmates back to prison, take a ruling under advisement or free them.


JACKSON, Miss. -- The Mississippi attorney general's office says it has not been able to find one of the five former inmates who worked as trusties at the Governor's Mansion and were pardoned by Haley Barbour during his final days as governor.

Hinds County Circuit Judge Tomie Green ordered the five trusties to appear in court Monday, but authorities haven't located Joseph Ozment. He was convicted in 1994 of killing a man during a robbery.

Green scheduled a 3 p.m. CST hearing to consider arguments from Attorney General Jim Hood, who's challenging some of Barbour's pardons on the grounds that they failed to meet the state constitutional requirement of publishing a legal notice for 30 days in a local newspaper.
