So an Obama appointed judge who was the former law partner of Lindsay Graham and a former public defender and a former congressman who is enamored with Graham. Wonder how that sentencing will go. I’m sure a pardon is probably forthcoming no matter the outcome. Oh and Wright was instrumental in getting little lord Fauntleroy William Timmons re-elected. The swamp is still alive and well.

Apparently in spring 2020, a SC attorney was told Wright was going down for reasons not mentioned here. Looks like there have been those who have wanted Wright taken down long ago, well before 2020. Intereting as well are that the public details seem more like a mundane cover for the true sordid details. So, I agree with Vini that this could end as a slap on the wrist.
