News@lemmy.world•Former Louisiana mayor sentenced to 90 days over rape of 16-year-old boyEnglish
1384·1 month agoWhoa! A Whole 80 days?
Well, you can’t say a former governor got off easy. Those 70 days will be pure hell.
I mean imagine how she’ll feel serving that long 60-day sentence.
She could get out for good behavior, maybe after half of that 50-day sentence.
Of course, the judge might make her serve that whole month so that she can set an example.
That week will probably make her regret what she did.
That’ll probably be the longest weekend of her life.

Inexpensive or older routers either don’t store history at all or keep it for a short time.
