Carona sunset?

IT COULD BE 5 TO 6 YEARS IN PRISON, $125,000 FINE FOR CARONA

Over at the OC Weekly website, Matt Coker reports that
R.

UPDATE:

Well, it doesn't seem like *enough* punishment, but it's a relief that Carona got prison time and a (puny) fine.

"I don't understand how it could have happened"??? Deborah Carona needs serious reality counseling. Of course, that became clear when she married the creep--and stayed with him even with his mistress about. Sad, sad, sad.

"Shame" is exactly the concept needed here for the creep himself (among many others that I won't put on a blog post). I think the judge did a good job.

Sometimes, there is a tiny measure of justice.
