In 2004, I attended a young conservative speaker series in Orange County, CA. The current Sheriff of Orange County at the time, Michael S. Carona, was a guest speaker at this event. Long story short, I won a bottle of wine (2000 Woodbridge by Robert Mondavi) in a raffle that evening. And, even more awesome than that, the bottle of wine I won in this raffle happened to be from Sheriff Michael S. Carona. The bottle itself is engraved with the OC Sheriff's logo and Carona's name.
Fast forward 3 years, and I saw online that Carona (and his wife) were indicted on several counts of witness tampering, bribery, conspiracy, and mail fraud. It's now 2009, and yesterday a jury acquitted Carona of all but one count of witness tampering. As of now, he faces up to 10 years in prison. Thanks to Orange County taxpayers, I now own a bottle of wine from a convicted felon!
