State Attorney General Marty Jackley took issue recently with a story written by reporter Bob Mercer about the no-prison sentence handed to Joop Bollen earlier this year. Bollen was initially charged with five counts of using money in which state government had a security interest. He pleaded guilty to one count. Jackley agreed to the plea arrangement. He is a candidate for the Republican nomination for governor. Here is the response from Jackley:
Democrat Congressional Candidate Tim Bjorkman’s recent statements and invitation to discuss the EB-5 court proceedings are somewhat puzzling and highlight why it may have been important for him to have considered the facts and the law before making such statements.
First, state law clearly limits what a state prosecutor could charge. Our Supreme Court overruled a jury conviction for theft in Bon Homme County because it involved a similar security interest.
