|
The Outrage: Miss Mercy, how do you feel about the fact that in November of 1990 Sammy Lee Cloud was released from prison after serving only two years of a 20 year sentence for burglary?

When that state fires him for his past record as a killer, he is paid once more. In effect, he has made $40,000 for killing Vinson Harris.
