Convicted Murderer Wins Election to Office in DC From Behind Bars

[excalibur]

Just another reason to say 'No!' to DC statehood. Loony voters.

A still-incarcerated convicted murderer made history in the nation’s capital when voters recently elected him to one of the District of Columbia’s Advisory Neighborhood Commissions, which advise the local government on neighborhood issues such as police protection, parking, zoning, liquor licenses, and trash collection.

Joel Caston, 44, has been imprisoned for 26 years after a jury convicted him of first-degree murder in the Aug. 14, 1994, ambush slaying of Rafiq Washington, 18. He is expected to be released from the D.C. Central Detention Facility either this or next year.

Only a blacque tranny could beat him.

Mmm... Yes... Lets let these people have even more power. Sounds... Good. They clearly have their heads on straight...

Did anyone else notice this?

Caston bested four other candidates, all of whom reside in the jail with him, the community newspaper The Washington Informer reported.

Is this even a paid position?

DC; interesting stat: 60% Black. The highest black ratio of any state or district in the nation, I believe.

Blacks are 13% overall; where is the interest in affirmative action and racial equity in getting more whites working in government.

Forgive me this is a dumb question, but how can a person run for anything if they are still in the pokey?

God bless you always!!!
