Ecoterrorist Gets Home Confinement
Ecoterrorist Gets Home Confinement
Posted By: C. Johnson 15 hrs ago

SACRAMENTO (AP) -- An environmental activist who conspired to destroy a Northern California dam and a genetics lab has been sentenced to five months' home confinement.

The sentence for Lauren Weiner, 23, of Pound Ridge, New York, contrasts with a nearly 20-year term for the ringleader of the 2006 plot.

Federal prosecutors said Weiner and Zachary Jenson, 23, of Monroe, Washington, were less to blame than Eric McDavid, 31, of Foresthill. Weiner and Jenson pleaded guilty and testified against McDavid.

Jenson was sentenced last week to six months in jail he had already served. Weiner was sentenced Thursday.

1. How come the ecoterrorists rolling back Endangered Species protection are walking around free?
On another note, hope you are doing well, SS!
