A friend from HS served time in Federal prison for credit card fraud. It seems crazy to me but I can certainly empathize with the temptation given his computer skills.

We've spoken on and off a few times since HS (and aren't very close) but I don't begrudge someone friendship that has paid their debt to society, so to speak. It's his family that he hurt most IMO.

If anyone can't give people a second chance then they may not be my kind of people.

I wouldn't say I was "friends" with him, but in high school I was acquainted with Tilden Harris, the guy who had his wife Stacie Kemp Harris murdered in the parking lot of Tinseltown in 1997. No one who knew him was surprised when he had it done, and I never could figure out why Stacie married that POS in the first place.

Friend of our family's son got busted for selling cocaine in the 80's... He went to federal prison, after he got out, he said all he did in prison was cut grass. So much grass, that by the time he finished, he had to start at the beginning again..

Fellow Army officer who was a long time friend. Theft of power tools and industrial equipment (that he had ordered in theater) worth approximately $12,000. Hid it in cargo containers retrograding personal equipment from Iraq. Dishonorable discharge, reduced to private and sentenced to eleven months confinement at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina.

A girl I used to hang out with shot her husband. I think she's still in the crossbar hotel.

Brett Gerald? He got something like 70 years I believe

I knew him a little bit. I think it got reduced to 30-35 years. I knew his older sister really well.
