Schwarzenegger reduces prison term for Calif. Speaker's son

With his horrible reign of destruction in California already over, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger made one last ditch effort before he left office to make himself look even more ridiculous than he already was, by reducing a prison sentence for Estaban Nunez, the son of former disgraced Speaker of the California State Assembly, Fabian Nunez.

Estaban Nunez had been given a sixteen year prison sentence for fatally stabbing a student at California State University San Diego fraternity party, and Governor Schwarzenegger decided that a sentence like that was too harsh, so he'll only get a seven year sentence instead.

Simply unbelievable.

But maybe outgoing Governor Schwarzenegger is reducing his prison sentence simply to reduce tax payer money for incarcerating prisoners in the State, which already cost an arm and a leg? Your guess is as good as mine that this is just another game of politics. The former Speaker of the Assembly comes begging to Schwarzenegger to please reduce his criminal son's incarceration and maybe offer some forgiveness as well, which under Fabian Nunez's tenure as Speaker, the State continued to spend money rapidly and the blame of course is also put on Schwarzenegger.

Speaker Nunez, by the way, was also investigated for apparently misusing tax payer money on a lavish trip to Europe many years ago. He was never formally convicted as he should have been, and now his son gets a partial pardon, because of political connections.

Its disgusting, just disgusting.
