which was granted by Judge Elpedio Vitale

The judge just got a new nickname.  "He's a high riser and brought Mr. Pacman, baby!"

 

Edit:  Not so funny when you read the whole article:

The jury’s decision does not mean Bussert’s client left the courtroom freely, though. James was convicted last year of home invasion and sexually assaulting a 10-year-old girl and is serving a 65-year sentence.

If the wang is pale, he going to jail.  If the pickle aint chalk, he going to walk.

If the dong is long, conviction is wrong.

Agreed. Fortunately he'll spend the rest of his life in the penal system.
