According to a press release by County Attorney Sam Vederman, Wolfe had been living in San Francisco prior to his arrest in May 2009. In 2002, Wolfe stored some crates and briefcases in the shed of Bouse resident Jim Jarvis. He did not tell Jarvis what was being stored. In December 2008, Jarvis cleaned out his shed and discovered child pornography and called law enforcement. Vederman prosecuted the case. Each count carries a prison sentence of 10 to 24 years, 17 years presumptive in the Arizona Department of Corrections. There is no eligibility for probation. La Paz County Superior Court Judge Michael Burke will sentence Wolfe Nov. 30." http://www.parkerpioneer.net/articles/2009/10/28/news/parker06.txt ``` gwern ``` --- ### brunians at brunians.org *03 Nov 2009, 00:12 · in reply to Gwern Branwen* That's pretty harsh for having some dirty books. . > "Rexford "Rex" Gene Wolfe, 60, was convicted by a La Paz County jury > Oct. 22, on 10 counts of sexual exploitation of a minor under 15 years > of age.

Are you seriously arguing that he should be locked up for, let me see, 10 counts at 17 years presumptive with no possibility for parole, that is potentially a 170 year sentence, are you seriously arguing that he should be locked up and the key thrown away for owning some books? . > Is this a joke?
