80-year-old arrested while on appeal bond [AR]

Yup he's screwed...

80-year-old arrested while on appeal bond
July , 2008 - nwanews.com

ALMA — An 80-year-old man who was free on bond while he appeals a 70-year prison sentence has been arrested again on a charge that accuses him of selling a controlled substance, authorities said.

Clifford “Joe” Pullan was arrested June 29 after a controlled buy in which authorities say he sold the painkiller hydrocodone to a confidential informant. Pullan was free on a $ 100,000 appeal bond.

Pullan was convicted on May 17, 2007, of three counts of delivery of marijuana, and a jury sentenced him to 30 years in prison. A couple of weeks later, Pullan was sentenced to 70 years in prison after a jury in Crawford County convicted him of several more drugrelated charges. The sentences would run concurrently.

Pullan was tried before Circuit Judge Gary R. Cottrell as a habitual offender with four previous felony convictions, a status that extended his sentence.

The judge set an appeal bond of $ 100,000 which enabled Pullan to go free while he tried to get his convictions reversed. That bond was revoked after Pullan’s arrest this week, pending a hearing.

Fort Smith attorney Barry Neal asked that Pullan be released on the appeal bond for a week to 10 days so he can get his affairs in order.

Chief Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Robert Presley objected to the request.

Neal said Pullan’s arrest was the result of a deliberate effort by the drug task force. “It was a setup deal,” he said.

That was my thought. It is becoming more common that seniors are selling their meds for extra income. He's screwed.

Quote:

"When a person is on Social Security, drawing $500 a month, and they can sell their pain pills for $10 apiece, they'll take half of them for themselves and sell the other half to pay their electric bills or buy groceries," said Floyd County jailer Roger Webb. "It used to be a rare occasion to have an elderly inmate. Five years ago it was a rarity." Link

Because of this mans age, this charge carries a practical life sentence, for marijuana no less.

:nonono:

I feel like I'm becoming Bi-Polar, I read a pro-marijuana story and I get happy, then I read a story like this and get depressed. Every single day I get highs and lows from these news stories. Some good, some bad.
