Come on Joe, no matter how much time and effort you put into trying to spring Tim he is still a Federal Inmate, a criminal. Mike Hernandez does not want or need Tim's endorsement. Tim should have been convicted on a number of crimes but was protected by a several of local officials. By all means print the endorsement but don't be surprised as it will negatively effect Mike Hernandez.

PermalinkThe question is, who can issue the most traffic tickets to bring in more money, increase probation revenues, raise public transport revenue due to suspended licenses, and let the drug issue fester enough to receive some federal money? Smarter not harder guys!
