Michel Lapointe Knows Where The Beef Is... More Importantly, He Knows That Beef Can Buy You An Early Release!









For some folks, weight has always been a problem. But for some, being overweight can translate into preferential treatment. Michel Lapointe may fit that category. He weights 430-pounds. He was serving time in a Canadian prison but was released early because the facility could not accommodate his massive frame.

The Quebec Parole Board sided with Michel's claims that he just did not fit in the prison scene. Given his good behavior and what could be legitimate health concerns, Michel received early parole. "Big Mike," as he's known, was in the joint for conspiracy and drug trafficking. Rumor has it he celebrated his early release by a great meal.
For the next few days Legal Pub will be catching up on new law for 2009. So don't expect a new post for a few days.

Hey Legal Pub, I'm with secrets, I will miss your posts.
When researching new law if you come across anything on Indiana v. Edwards I would be interested. I know it's a Supreme Court ruling having to do with competentcy issues. This case was brought up in court the other day in the Nicholas Sheley case.
Thanks! I appreciate your efforts and your sense of humor!

I hear the rumbling in the background... some new articles are coming. L.P. and gang have been discussing 2009 with some Federal Judges and lots of Appellate Court justices. Look for a scholarly article on Judicial cannons of ethics real soon.
