The Democrat had served 20 years in the Pennsylvania House.

He is no different than any other citizen arrested for drug possession. Read him his rights; hand cuff him; take him to jail a regular jail - like any other criminal serves in not a "Country Club for the Rich Criminals". You know that his defense will be that he is addicted to the drugs and he needs so-called "Re-hab", which because of who he is he will get. Thank-you.
