Brian Aitken's sentence commuted by Christie

Governor Chris Christie of New Jersey commuted Brian Aitken's sentence today. Read David Codrea's report HERE.

It looks like Aitken will be home for Christmas, but he is not out of the woods yet. This was not a pardon. Aitken will still need to get the conviction overturned on appeal before he can get his civil rights restored.

For background information on Aitken, read my earlier post HERE.

Wikileaks

I was taught in the military that two things were needed to access classified information:

1. Proper clearance level
2. Need to know

How could an Army private have the need to know all the info that has been released by Wikileaks?
Could someone further up the chain be leaking this info?
Are the inmates in charge of the asylum?

Free Brian Aitken

Its too late for Brian Aitken in the PRNJ (Peoples' Republic of New Jersey), but citizens should be aware of the principle of jury nullification. All it takes is one fully informed juror to say no, and there is no conviction.

In Aitken's case, he was convicted and is beginning a 7 year sentence for not committing a crime. He did everything right, yet was arrested and convicted. The judge in the case has since lost his place behind the bench, but after grave harm had already been done to Aitken.

Per NJ law, Aitken had unloaded handguns in the trunk of his car to move them from one place of residence to another. But he was nonetheless convicted.

What can you do to help Aitken? Contact Governor Christie and ask him to free Aitken. You can call  609-292-6000
