Nevada ACORN leader avoids prison for voter fraud

Daily Caller has the story.

“Judge Donald Mosley sentenced Busefink to two years imprisonment but suspended the jail time provided that she abides by the terms of her probation. She was also fined a total of $4,000 and ordered to perform 100 hours of community service.  Prosecutors had argued for a fine of just $1,000.”

A rare case where the judge imposes a sentence greater than what the prosecution was seeking.  Alas:

“The criminal complaint filed against Busefink by the Democratic attorney general of Nevada, Catherine Cortez Masto, in May 2009 stated that as ‘ACORN Regional Director for Voter Registration’ Busefink ‘did aid, abet, counsel, encourage, hire, command, induce or procure ACORN to commit the crime of Compensation for Registration of Voters’ by approving a bonus program called ‘Blackjack’ or ’21.’ Voter registration canvassers were given cash bonuses for exceeding a daily quota of 20 registrations.”
